Koogle’s Features Siddur • Contain all the important prayers in Jewish tradition. • Enable the user to read the current prayer.

Koogle’s Features Prayer & Sabbath Reminder: • Enable the user to automatically set the phone to silent mode when Sabbath starts. • Enable the user to set different reminders before prayer and holidays.
Future Plans • The application is currently build for the Jewish community but with some modification it can also be used for other religious groups. • In the Siddur we thought about adding English option as well. • In the reminder we thought of making the range of reminder to be set according to the prayer range or holiday range of time.
