User Reviews

OU Kosher is viewed as a useful, compact, and resourceful app that many Jewish households rely on for quick kosher checks, Pesach guidance, and extra content like how-to videos and holiday customs. However, multiple users report stability problems, especially after updates, with crashes on startup and incompatibility with older iOS devices. Content gaps and occasional mislabeling are also noted, along with weak or slow user support. The app's value hinges on frequent, accurate updates and broader Sephardic coverage to satisfy a wider audience.

Pros

Useful and handy for checking kosher status.
Compact, easy-to-use interface.
Offers additional resources like how-to videos and holiday customs.
Generally seen as a helpful resource for Pesach and everyday use.
Regular updates help keep information current.

Cons

Frequent stability issues: crashes on startup or after updates.
Data gaps or inaccuracies: items missing or mislabeled (e.g., pork rib labeled parve/OU) and outdated info.
Limited or slow customer support: inquiries sometimes go unanswered.
Incompatibility with older devices/OS versions: not supported on iOS 7, older iOS versions, and older iPads.
Lack of Sephardic-focused classifications and broader community coverage.

I've kept kosher most of my life, but through a more Messianic type of belief. I was expecting something else, I guess, more along the lines of what fish are clean? What birds are clean? What might be unclean in this or that brand named store bought food or at this restaurant. I was hoping for something for us poor schmucks who don't happen to live in high Jewish populations like NY. But I don't know enough of the Hebrew words to understand everything in this app, and so therefore, it looks pretty. It seems to run well. It hasn't caused my phone too many problems (it did seize up once when I was searching for what I thought might include restaurants in Kansas, bug after I closed it and rebooted the phone, the app worked fine. Still no restaurants in Kansas, though, surprise! Oy.).
