iTalmud uses the iPhone accelerometer to detect when the phone is moved to a horizontal position and adjusts the page layout accordingly.
* COMMENTARIES - Original page formatting includes all the classic commentaries.
* KEYWORD SEARCH - iTalmud features a text search for the entire Talmud. You can then view the page in either a text or image-based format.
* CONTENT DOWNLOAD MANGER - Due to the large size of the Talmud images and audio lectures, all pages are downloadable on demand and then stored locally your device. You can download by daf/page or by masechta. Please note that the update engine will work even if the phone goes into sleep mode. (Please also note that at this stage about 35% of images are still unavailable. We will attempt to ensure that new pages are available according to the “Daf Yomi” schedule.

* “DAF YOMI” CALCULATOR – Integrated “Daf Yomi” calculator allows you to jump to the day’s “Daf” with a single touch.

Good where it's good
Some daffim are not available. I didn't check out all shas but Tomid is just not there and Me'ilah shows that it has 37 daffim but really has 22. And when I want to open daf 22a, the whole program crashes 👎
