Accidentally deleted Hebcal from my iPhone. Where can I find it?
It appeared double. I deleted one, all are gone.
Sorry to hear about the accidental deletion. Thanks for using Hebcal!

You used to be able to easily change months. Now the site seems to only allow changing years
You used to be able to easily change months. Now the site seems to only allow changing years.
This refers to the buttons at the bottom in the list format. For example, if viewing October, 2020 you’d see buttons pointing back to September, 2020 and forward to November, 2020.
Now I see buttons pointing to (October) 2019 and October (2020).
Daf Yomi alignment with Jewish calendar
Eruvin 40 addressed the topic of what to do when Rosh HaShanah fell on Shabbat, on the very day that Rosh HaShanah fell on Shabbat. Is there any way to predict when this particular alignment of daf and event (Eruvin 40 coincides with 29 Elul or 30 Elul) might occur again?
Hi, Shana Tova!
The next time Eruvin 40 coincides with 29 Elul is October 14, 4885.

I am unable to download a PDF version of the 5781 calender. I had no problems in the previous years.
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal. Sorry to hear you're having difficulty. Can you share a URL or a screenshot of what's not working?
You can find a 5781 PDF here:
https://www.hebcal.com/holidays/hebcal-2020-2021.pdf
And you can generate your own options here, choose "Create Calendar" and then choose "Print" when you get the results page.

Rosh Hashanah LaBehema
Can Rosh Hashanah LaBehema (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosh_Hashanah_LaBehema) be added to the calendar? I previously wasn't aware that there were 4 Rosh Hashanot observed, and this holiday has been experiencing a resurgence in observance, besides the fact that it's pretty cool. It's the first of Elul. A lot of people use Hebcal and having it added also would increase its awareness.
Hi, thanks again for this suggestion. We've implemented this feature.

Rosh Hashana LaBehemot (New Year for Tithing Animals) begins at sundown on Sun, 8 August 2021.
Thanks for your patience. Fast start and end times are now provided for major fast (Tish’a B’Av) and minor fasts (Ta’anit Esther, Tzom Gedaliah, Tzom Tammuz, Asara B’Tevet, & Ta’anit Bechorot). Minor fasts begin at alot hashachar (when the sun is 16.1° below the horizon in the morning) and end when 3 medium-sized stars are observable in the night sky (when the sun is 7.083° below the horizon in the evening). Tish’a B’Av fast begins at sundown and ends when 3 medium-sized stars are observable.
