Tanakh Read Along +4

Today I was using your fantastic app again. In Genesis 4 we have the word בֵין and I noticed that I mispronounced it. So I looked more carefully at the word, and realized the YOD is part of the long vowel tsere-Yod. And it all clicked right away. I have always appreciated the cantor who is the reader of this Tanakh, but in your app I can read ahead two or three words and then listen and pause and keep reading and correcting. Is there a way to add a ten second rewind? If not, that is ok as I can do that manually. This is a fantastic app and I thank you for it.

I really think this app has great potential. I am attempting to learn Hebrew in order to read the Tanakh in Hebrew, and I find this app helpful.

The following are things the developers could do to improve the app:

What I would love to see most is an option to make the text smaller so more fits on the screen.

Adding separation between verses, like maybe putting the start of each new verse on its own line would clean things up immensely. Currently, it’s all just mashed together.

It would also be awesome if they fix the quality of the recorded narration. The narrator himself is fine, but the recording of the narration is terrible quality and sounds like it was recorded in a fully tile room in the year 1900.

If the developer is reading this, I just want to say thank you for the app, keeping it up to date, and taking the time to read feedback.☺️

Functionally, I couldn’t ask for more in a Tanakh app. Such a wonderful way to practice reading, expand vocabulary, reference meaning and part of speech, verb tense, etc… Toggle options for transliteration and translation are great. I use this daily with almost all of the features. I recommend this to everyone interested in understanding Hebrew and the depth of the Word.

I had an issue once where I couldn’t download more, but I got around it by deleting and reinstalling the app.
