iBless Food

best on the market- worth every penny/cent/shekel- keep up the good work - hope to see future options on Ashkenazi/Sephardic options

One question that came up for me recently... Shouldn’t brown rice have a separate listing from white rice? BROWN RICE: Ha-Adama before and Bore Nefashot after; WHITE RICE: Mezonot before and Bore Nefashot after? Thanks!

For me personally - I don't think I will come across and food on a typical day and not know its Bracha/Blessing (quite a limited group of foods :) ) - but I think the quiz mode is great - to get kids and adults to learn the Brachot - We already had a family quiz night on the I-touch So if you need help figuring out Brachot and or you want to have really cool "Ipod Brachot Flash Cards" I think it is a great prodcut.

The concept is good. The app works well. I've just been running into dead ends. I got this app specifically for those food items I'm not sure about on the go. I thought this would replace the brachot book I have. I still find the book superior. If this app increased it's database and added a "learn more" feature to explain certain topics (like why bananas are ha'adama) regarding the food item chosen then it would be a five star app. Also the conditions for Brachot, like if the food is considered a meal or not, could be better outlined.

It would be very helpful to also have the English translation of each prayer, so one could understand what one is saying, and to be able to learn the differences (in English) among the various types of food blessings. It would also be helful to learn WHY a particular food belongs in a certain category (for example, why the blessing for tomato is ha-adama, when it grows on a vine, and why the blessing for grapes is ha-etz, when it clearly grows on vines).
