Description

Minyan Now lets you quickly create a minyan, a group of 10 Jewish males, where ever you may be, at any time of the day. Those who download Minyan Now will be able to request to form a Minyan within the next hour or so. You specify the time and location and it will alert other Jewish men in the area about the Minyan. After 10 respond that they are able to make the Minyan, the Minyan will be formed and you can daven. This works great at airports, train stations, sports events, and other areas where there are likely 10 or more Jewish men, but no official shul or synagogue in the area. This is cross platform and works with other platforms. It is also integrated into the RustyBrick Siddur. Note: You must enable location services for this to work. The default distance to be notified of a Minyan is 1 mile, you can change this distance within your settings. Check out our other iOS Jewish apps at www.rustybrick.com/iphone מנין עכשיו מאפשר לכם ליצור מנין, קבוצה של 10 גברים יהודיים, בכל מקום שתהיו, בכל שעה ביום. אלו שמורידים את מנין עכשיו יוכלו לבקש ליצור מנין תוך כשעה. מציינים את השעה ואת המיקום, ויישלח איתות לאנשים שבאזור אודות המנין המבוקש. לאחר שעשרה אנשים מגיבים, תוכלו לקיים מנין ולהתפלל. זה עובד מצויין בשדה תעופה, תחנות רכבת, אירועי ספורט, ומקומות אחרים בהם מצויים 10 אנשים אך ללא מנין או בית כנסת עם זמני תפילה מוסדרים. זה עובד על כל הפלטפורמות וגם מובנה בתוך הסידור של "ראסטי בריק" הערה: יש צורך להפעיל "שירות איזורי" בכדי שזה יעבוד. ברירת המחדל למרחק הודעה על מנין הוא 2 ק"מ. תוכלו לשנות זאת בתוך ההגדרות. חפשו אותנו ואת שאר האפליקציות היהודיות ב-www.rustybrick.com/iphone

  • Great idea but ...

    I love the idea of this app. Notifying men in the area of a minyan forming is incredible. A few times I tried to formulate a minyan at places where I knew Jews were around (Disneyland, airport) with no responses. There must be a way to promote this app so that many more Jewish men would have it so a minyan would be formed when one is needed.
  • Password creation doesn’t work

    Tried a dozen times, used different passwords, rejected each time. Why is it needed anyway? Guess I won’t make the minyan!

    I thought this app was a brilliant idea, but apparently I can't use it. I am an Orthodox woman who just lost my mother and will be saying Kaddish. However, this app requires that you certify that you are a man. While I recognize that I can't help form the minyan, it would be nice if I could call upon one if needed. Perhaps that will be a fix in a later version.
  • Great app

    But you should make a option that the location shouldn't have to be on all the time cuzz that uses a lot of power and should still be able to get a alert for a minyan... Any idea?
  • Great app. Waiting for updates of improvements.

    Can you make a longer time window for selecting when a minyan is going to be scheduled? Maybe a 12 hour window? Meaning that we could let people know about a minyan that will happen a few hours to come. Also, could you keep a current minyan still on the on the "Nearby minyanim" tab for 15 minsor so after the minyan started to keep the option open still to attend or send "people in area" a chat message? Thank you.
  • Great idea, but needs work

    Minyan start times should be editable. The start time choices are too limited.
  • Woman need minyanim, too

    This discriminates. It requires me to certify and I am a male. Newsflash: I'm not a male. Even women need opportunities for prayer. The chief Rabbi of Israel said amen to a woman's Kaddish just last week. When you update this app, I will update my review.
