One Library now holds everything you've made here: saved lessons, notes, reflections, and Chevruta conversations, side by side in the same place. Review lives in Chazara, every holiday lives in one hub with its At Your Table guide pinned on top, and Home leads with a single Resume card that knows where you left off. Also in this update: • A Yahrzeit companion. Record it once and Derekh Learning carries the Hebrew date every year, with a reminder a week ahead and the day before. Private to you. • Reflections now save reliably to your Journal. • Holiday reminders arrive again, tied to each holiday's real date, and holidays open instantly. • Commentary reads better: grouped by commentator, with Sefaria's own summary on each parsha. • Reading screens respect your text size settings throughout. • Crash fixes and stability improvements. Something look off? Tell us from any lesson's overflow menu. We read every report.

Derekh Learning is now on Mac. The full app, with sidebar navigation, resizable reading panes, and your same account, library, and streak. Start the daf on the train, finish it at the desk. Also in this update: • Zmanim the way you keep them. Candle lighting is no longer fixed at 18 minutes — set your own offset, and choose your havdalah, posek, alos, tzais, Rabbeinu Tam, and earliest tallit and tefillin. Every opinion we can calculate is now listed, and another city's times finally show on that city's clock. • Yahrzeit. Record it once and it's carried every year, with a reminder a week ahead and again the day before, what the day asks with its sources, and one tap into learning in their memory. Where the halacha is a genuine machloket — which Adar in a leap year, a 30 Cheshvan or 30 Kislev date in a year with no 30th — we ask you instead of deciding for you. • The Siddur is open to everyone: blessings and prayers across six nusachim, Sefaria-verified, each with its classical source and a practical guide to how and when it's said. • Derekh for Life: free day-by-day journeys for mourning, bar and bat mitzvah, a wedding, a new baby, and teshuvah — now written for your role rather than for everyone at once. • Your chevruta can ask you. Choose the direction: ask your question, or answer one and hear how it landed. Conversations run up to four exchanges now, and free daily questions go from two to four. Sources open in-app, and personal halachic questions still get an honest "bring it to your rabbi." • Chazara works offline, and each review opens with a real question drawn from your own flashcards — so you find out what you remember before you see the answer. • Daily Drive: today's lesson, the Daf Companion, the gematria, and A Word of Torah as one playlist that plays end to end from the lock screen or CarPlay. • A home screen that notices. Suggestions for the depth and the reminder time that fit how you actually learn, worked out entirely on your device, and a Sunday look back at the week. • Streaks are now Shabbat-safe. A missed Shabbat never breaks your streak, and the Friday reminder arrives before candle-lighting. • Pick the hour your daily lesson arrives. Free for everyone. • App color themes (Pro) and a full dark-mode readability pass. • Audio: scrubbing on free narration, and a sleep timer that ends with the lesson. • A fresh navy-and-gold look, VoiceOver labels across the app, and fixes throughout. Something look off? Tell us from any lesson's overflow menu. We read every report.
