The siddur that knows what day it is.
Amud is a siddur for your phone and computer that shows each day's davening the way it's said, with Ya'aleh VeYavo, Hallel, Tachanun and the Omer in their place. Zmanim, a Jewish calendar, Tehillim and daily learning come with it. Free, offline, in Hebrew and English.

A siddur that follows the calendar
Open it and daven. Amud already checked the date.
On Rosh Chodesh you see Ya'aleh VeYavo and Hallel; on a day without Tachanun, Tachanun steps aside. Amud works out the Hebrew date from your location and the time of day, then shows or hides each addition for Shacharis, Mincha and Maariv.
- Jump straight to Shema or Shemoneh Esrei: each service opens with a bar of its key points, plus what's added today, like Hallel, Musaf or the day's Hoshana.
- Seasonal changes handled: Mashiv HaRuach, Tal U'Matar, Aseret Yemei Teshuvah, Al HaNissim, Aneinu and Nachem.
- Short halachic notes only when they apply, like "Say Ya'aleh VeYavo" on Rosh Chodesh.

Everything in one app
More than a siddur
Amud brings together what you reach for during the day, with nothing to sign up for and nothing that needs a connection.
Siddur in every nusach
Ashkenaz, Sefard, Edot HaMizrach, Chabad and Koren, each with a choice of Hebrew versions and translations. Choose from over 80 Hebrew fonts, with or without nikud and trop.
Search everything New
One search bar for prayers in every siddur, Tehillim by chapter, today's zmanim and Torah books. Hebrew ignores nikud, and English takes any spelling: "shacharis" finds Shacharit.
Zmanim with alerts
Alos, sof zman Shema, chatzos, shkiah and tzeis for where you are, by the GRA, Magen Avraham or Baal HaTanya. Set a reminder before any zman, or add your own.
Jewish calendar
A luach with Hebrew dates, holidays, the parsha, candle lighting, havdalah and the Omer. Israel and chutz la'aretz schedules both.
Holidays & seasons
Hoshanos, Lulav, Selichos, Chanukah candles, Hakafos and the other holiday prayers gathered in one place, your nusach first, with today's marked.
Torah learning
Download the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch in Hebrew and English once, then learn offline with today's Kitzur Yomi marked. Daf Yomi, Mishna Yomi and Rambam are listed daily.
Tehillim
The day's portion by the month or the week, Shir shel Yom, and your place saved as you go.
Easy on the eyes
Hebrew and English side by side, interleaved or alone. Swipe to the next section, double-tap for focus mode, and pick Ashkenazi spellings like Shabbos and Shacharis.
A home screen you arrange
Cards for the Hebrew date, the next zman, candle lighting, quick prayers like Birkas HaMazon and Tefillas HaDerech, and a nearby minyan. Move and resize them.

Used to an ArtScroll siddur?
Many people daven from an ArtScroll siddur and look for the same thing on their phone. Amud isn't ArtScroll and doesn't include its text or translation, but a lot will feel familiar, and some things work differently.
What feels familiar
The order of davening in Nusach Ashkenaz or Sefard, Hebrew facing English, clear section titles, and instructions for what to add on special days.
What's different
Nothing to flip to: the day's additions appear in place, and what isn't said is folded away. Amud is free, works offline, and includes zmanim, a calendar and Tehillim alongside the siddur.
Amud's siddurim and translations come from Sefaria, under each version's license. ArtScroll is a trademark of Mesorah Publications, Ltd. Amud isn't affiliated with or endorsed by ArtScroll or Mesorah.

Questions
Frequently asked
Is Amud free?
Yes. Amud is free, has no ads and needs no account.
Is Amud the ArtScroll siddur?
No. Amud is not affiliated with ArtScroll or Mesorah Publications and doesn't include the ArtScroll text or translation. Its siddurim and translations come from Sefaria, under each version's license. If you're used to an ArtScroll siddur, you'll find the same order of davening in Nusach Ashkenaz or Sefard, with Hebrew and English side by side.
Which nusach does Amud have?
Nusach Ashkenaz, Nusach Sefard, Edot HaMizrach and Chabad, with a choice of Hebrew versions and English translations for each.
Does it work without internet?
Every siddur, font and rule ships with the app, and zmanim are calculated on your device, so davening works with no connection. Books in the Torah tab are a one-time download.
What does "amud" mean?
An amud (עמוד) is the stand the chazzan davens from, and also a pillar and a page. The logo is an open siddur resting on one.
Is there an iPhone app?
Use the web app: open amud.page/app in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. It installs like an app and works offline. An unsigned .ipa is also published with each release for people who sideload apps.
Does Amud collect my data?
Amud shares anonymous usage statistics, such as which screens and prayers are used, to help decide what to improve. It never sends what you type, your name or your exact location, and it gets a new anonymous ID each time it starts, so nothing is linked to you. Turn it off under Settings → Advanced → Share anonymous usage.
How do I report a mistake or suggest a feature?
A mistake in the text: use the report option in the app. Select the line in the siddur or Tehillim, tap Report, choose the type (text error, translation issue, formatting issue or wrong text for today), describe what's wrong and, if you can, add the correction. The report arrives with the exact place you were reading, so you don't have to say which prayer or nusach it was. It is tied only to a random anonymous ID made on your device, not to your name or account, and it lets us spot repeats and spam.
Anything else, or a feature suggestion: email info@amud.page. If it's about the text, mention your nusach, the prayer and the date.
