Hi, Your app is very helpful to me, especially the ability to set alarms for various zmanim. There is one aspect of the app that has caused me trouble. If one does not back out of the app all the way, for example, by hitting the home key, the app returns to the place it was last used. For most apps this is fine, but for this app, it's not. If I use the app on Monday and open it on Friday, it is quite possible that I will be looking at Monday's times without realizing it. Therefore I would like to suggest that whenever your app loses and then regains focus, it should reset to the current day. Thanks for your app. BG

Thank you for your suggestion, but two reasons not to implement it:

  1. Android apps are supposed to remember their last state such that when user brings the app back to foreground it must remember what was last shown (Samsung tests for this by rotating the screen).
  2. There are 2 prominent buttons for “today”: in the main action menu, and in the date dialog.
