A wonderful Prayer Training Program, My Siddur / HaSiddur Sheli is a powerful program providing the most effective method of learning how to Daven / pray in the original Hebrew text, the time-honored traditional way.
My Siddur is your personal prayer trainer.
My Siddur is a very user friendly transliterated Siddur that has accompanying professionally recorded audio CDs, to which you can chant and sing along, to help you learn or practice your prayers in the traditional Hebrew text.
This version of My Siddur has ONLY the weekday prayers. Shabbat & Holiday prayers - will G-d willing be available in future apps.

The transliteration in this version of My Siddur has the Israeli/Sephardic style pronunciation (Shabbat vs Shabbos).
My Siddur is not a complete Siddur. It is a training tool to help people learn to pray in Hebrew.

Ratings and Reviews
Good app
This app is good for basic learning. I like the audio tracks that accompany the sections. The pronunciation is very clear and the transliteration is easy to read. My only wish is that it had the brachot for the different foods.
Excellent!
This siddur was originally developed to help young day school students learn how to daven. However, it will also be of great help to baalei teshuva, geirim or anyone previously unfamiliar with and perhaos overwhelmed by the Jewish prayer service. It contains the Hebrew text in a nice, clear format, transliterations, translation of key phrases, instruction at every step and, above all GREAT audio recording of all tefillos. This really helps you to learn nusach and the tefillos by heart. I highly recommend it to any newcomer to Judaism and davening.
Has Potential, But Many Serious Problems
The Rabbi's voice is very nice, but I have several major issues with the app. They are:
You cannot play a nigun and follow the entire prayer word for word because the nigun goes to the end, but you must turn the page to follow the prayer. When you turn the page, it stops the nigun and you must restart it.
There is no option (and there should be) to play important prayers, such as the Shema, from the beginning to the end without stopping. It is broken up in sections.
I would like to see an option to hear simply the read prayer without a nigun.
There must be a different speed versions, especially a very slow option, for beginners like me. Moreover, when the rabbi gets into the Amidah, he does it only one speed: fast.
I'd also like to have options of niguns without musical accompaniment.
