KehillaLive

Live zmanim display for shuls

Your shul’s zmanim. Always right. Always on screen.

KehillaLive turns any screen in your shul into a live zmanim board — minyanim, Shabbos, the daily learning and your announcements — and prints a fresh poster every week. The gabbai runs it all from his phone.

Live at Cong. Zera Shimshon, Brooklyn

Works on any smart screen with a browser, or a Fire Stick (about $30) on the screen you already have.

One link turns the screen on your wall into the shul’s board — zmanim, minyanim, Shabbos and the week’s news — and nobody needs a ladder to change it.

How it works

Three steps. Then the screen takes care of itself.

  1. 1

    Sign up with your ZIP

    Shul name, ZIP code and a password. Two minutes later you have your own screen link with today’s zmanim already on it.

  2. 2

    Open the link on the screen

    Use the browser on any smart screen, or plug a Fire Stick into the one you have. Press full screen and leave it on.

  3. 3

    Run it from your phone

    Change a minyan, add a flyer or a yahrzeit, press Save. The screen picks it up on its own — no ladder, no laptop.

Features

Everything your shul looks up, in one place on the wall.

  • 1

    Zmanim for your exact ZIP

    Alos, netz, sof zman Shema, chatzos, shkiya and tzeis, plus the Hebrew date and parsha, calculated daily for your location.

  • 2

    Minyan times that set themselves

    Enter a fixed time, or a rule like “15 minutes before shkiya, rounded to 5.” Mincha moves with the season without anyone touching it.

  • 3

    A proper Shabbos block

    Candle lighting, Shabbos minyanim, Mincha and Motzei Shabbos — laid out the way your mispallelim expect to see it.

  • 4

    A clock you can read from the back

    A large analog clock face and a countdown to the next tefillah.

  • 5

    The daily learning band

    Daf Yomi, Mishna Yomis, Dirshu Daf HaYomi B’Halacha, Amud Yomi, Rambam and more. Turn on only what your shul learns.

  • 6

    Weather for the next few hours

    A quiet line in the top bar, so nobody walks out to Maariv without an umbrella.

  • 7

    Flyers and PDFs as slides

    Upload a JPG or PDF from your phone, or drag it in on a computer. It joins the rotation on the screen.

  • 8

    Yahrzeit board

    This week’s yahrzeits, Shabbos to Shabbos, with the day of each. Enter the Hebrew date once; it comes back every year.

  • 9

    Kiddush & sponsor slides

    “The Kiddush is sponsored by…” — with a start and end date, so it appears on time and disappears by itself.

  • 10

    Your shul’s own look

    Your colors, your logo, a background, and a choice of Hebrew fonts. It should look like it belongs on your wall.

  • 11

    Keeps going when the Wi-Fi doesn’t

    The screen saves about five weeks of zmanim ahead. If the internet drops, the times stay right.

  • 12

    Admin in English, Hebrew or Yiddish

    The gabbai’s page speaks his language, right-to-left included.

The weekly poster

A printed zmanim sheet, every week, without retyping a thing.

Not everyone looks up at a screen. KehillaLive builds a clean 8.5×11 poster for each week from the same times — on your shul’s letterhead or with your logo — ready for the bulletin board, the shul’s WhatsApp group or the email list.

  • Parsha, Hebrew dates, candle lighting and Motzei Shabbos
  • Shabbos and weekday minyanim, with the rules worked out
  • Daily zmanim for the week, in a layout people can read at a glance

Only need the poster? There’s a poster-only plan — see pricing.

Questions

Good questions from gabbaim.

Something else? info@kehillalive.com

What device do we need?

Any smart screen with a web browser, or any screen with an HDMI port and a Fire Stick (about $30). A computer connected to a monitor works too. Open your shul’s link, press full screen, and that’s it.

Does it need internet?

It needs Wi-Fi to set up and to pick up your changes. Once it’s running, the screen saves about five weeks of zmanim ahead, so if the internet goes down the times stay correct. If it was ever offline long enough to run out, it says so plainly rather than show old times.

How fast do changes show up?

Usually within seconds of pressing Save on the phone — without anyone touching the screen.

Where do the zmanim come from?

Zmanim, Hebrew dates and parsha come from Hebcal, calculated for your shul’s ZIP code. The Dirshu learning follows Dirshu’s official luach.

Can the admin page be in Hebrew or Yiddish?

Yes. The gabbai’s page works in English, Hebrew and Yiddish, and the screen itself is in Hebrew with traditional shul wording.

Can Mincha move with shkiya?

Yes. Any minyan can be a fixed time or a rule — minutes before or after shkiya or candle lighting, rounded to five minutes if you like. A shiur can follow Mincha (“Daf Yomi = Mincha − 30”).

Can it look like our shul?

Choose your colors, a Hebrew font, your logo and a background picture. The weekly poster can go on your letterhead.

What does it cost?

Screen + poster is $50 a month or $500 a year. Poster only is $20 a month or $200 a year. The Simcha screen is an add-on — ask us. You only need a screen and Wi-Fi.

See it on your shul’s wall this week.
