Mitzvah app
Orah is a daily mitzvah tracker built like the best habit apps, with a Jewish heart. A short list of mitzvot each day, a streak that grows, friends who cheer you on, and real charity money for every mitzvah you do.
Modeh Ani, Morning Blessings, Shema, Tefillin, Tehillim, Give Charity, an act of kindness, blessings on food, Daily Wisdom, the mezuzah and the evening Shema. Tick them off as you go.
One mitzvah a day keeps your streak alive. Shabbat and Yom Tov never break it. Missed a day? Do three mitzvot today and yesterday is restored.
From 'First win' and 'Double Digits' to 'No Days Off', 'Tefillin Era' and 'Massive Tzaddik'. Milestones with names your friends will actually react to.
Morning mitzvot appear in the morning, the evening Shema at night. Time-windowed cards and gentle reminders morning, midday and evening.
One of the 613 mitzvot, glowing at the top of your list: visiting the sick, returning lost property, avoiding harmful speech, comforting mourners.
Each tick adds donor-funded money to your Mitzvah Wallet. Give it to a charity you choose. Practice that helps someone else.
A mitzvah tracker is a habit app for Jewish practice. Instead of generic habits, the list is made up of mitzvot: the daily prayers, blessings and acts that make up a Jewish day. Orah gives you that list, explains each item in a sentence, and lets you tick it off. Over days and weeks the ticks become a streak, and the streak becomes a practice.
Orah ships with a core daily list and a growing catalogue you can add from. Each one has its full text (Hebrew, transliteration and English) and a rotating daily insight.
Orah borrows what works from Duolingo, Strava and Headspace: a daily ring, streaks, kudos from friends, milestone celebrations. It leaves out what doesn't belong: no paid streak freezes, no manufactured scarcity, no guilt in your notifications. The test for every feature is simple: would your rabbi endorse it if they read the code?
Follow friends and family to see each other's mitzvot and give a Shkoyach. Join a circle to light a shared ring each day and climb a weekly leaderboard. Schools use circles for classes and houses. Read more about the social side of Orah.
