The Saber Team is proud to present the latest addition to their suite of Jewish Apps, the Chitas Guide.
The Chitas Guide, funded in memory of Shaina Bracha Bas Shmuel, was developed in order to help motivate the studying of Chitas (Chumash with Rashi, Tanya, and Rambam). The app is currently still in its early version. More updates expected soon.

A part of this app was raised by the backers of the Go Fund Me Campaign in memory of Shaina Bracha Bas Shmuel.
To download the app, click the IOS icon or the Android icon:
We anticipate a web version of this full application is the far future, but for now, it’s only available on mobile devices. The Chumash Quiz and Tanya Quiz, are already available online.
What is the Chitas App?
The objective of the app is to test the comprehension of the daily Chitas Lessons.
“It is our hope that our users will put more of an emphasis on the understanding of the daily chitas if they know that they are being quizzed on the material” – Shmuel Aber
So far, the writers have created content for the Chumash and Rashi section of Chitas and Tanya. The hope is to roll out the Rambam Quiz by 2021.
App Versions
The first update of the app, slotted for early November 2016 contained the entire Bereishis. The update released on October 2017 contains the entire Torah aside for Devarim. The questions for the book of Devarim was included in July 2018 update.
The Tanya Questions became available on November of 2020.
This app is still in a beta version. All feedback is greatly appreciated.
You can reach out to the Saber Team and tell them your thoughts. They are also keen to hear all corrections and comments. They do read the emails that get sent but due to the volume of incoming emails, they will only answer the emails that require a response.
God willing, a new update is slated for August 2021. Here are the updates that are planned for Chitas Guide 3.3:
- A Missed Chitas Reminder Program (This functionality will enable the user to input missed lessons and easily catch them up at a later date)
- Chitas for Kids. We partnered with Chitas for Kids to provide in-app integration with their daily classes.
- Hayom Yom
- Sefer Hamitzvos
- Easy, Medium and Hard level speed for the questions
