Premium add-on · Optional

"Code Red" alerts
in real time

Direct connection to Home Front Command servers. When there's an alert in your area, it instantly takes over the screen and tells everyone where shelter is.

Symbolic infrastructure contribution

Alerts require continuous polling of Home Front Command servers, which creates ongoing infrastructure cost. Therefore this is a one-time symbolic payment per synagogue (no monthly subscription), covering the service for years to come.

FAQ

Everything you wanted to know

Is it really free? Any catch?+
Yes, truly free. No subscription, no registration, no credit card. The project was built to help synagogues, not for profit. The only paid add-on is Code Red alerts (a symbolic one-time payment).
What do I need to set it up?+
A TV plus an inexpensive TV streamer (an Android TV box or stick). You install the Ateret Yosef app on the streamer, enter your synagogue ID, and the board appears on the TV. No PC and no proprietary hardware — just an off-the-shelf streamer with an internet connection.
How long does setup take?+
Less than 15 minutes. Install the app on the streamer, enter your synagogue ID, set your location and prayer times — done. The settings menus are clear and easy to use; no technical knowledge required.
What if internet drops?+
The app keeps working. Times are computed locally, only content updates (new messages, new memorials) require connectivity.
How are messages and times updated?+
From any device — phone, computer, tablet. The gabbai opens the admin UI, makes the change, and it auto-updates on the synagogue screen.
Which prayer rites are supported?+
Ashkenaz, Sefard, Edot HaMizrach. All prayer-time related settings (Rabbeinu Tam, Plag Mincha, etc.) are configurable. We also support 17 different Haftarah lists by community.
