Daf Duo

Keep up with the daf, with someone who is learning it too.

Daf Duo pairs you with a chavrusa for Daf Yomi. Pick a time, get a reminder, open the daf together on a video call, and watch a streak grow that you both have to keep.

How it works

You don't have to find someone and arrange everything yourselves. Daf Duo handles the awkward parts.

  1. Get a chavrusaBe matched with a learning partner, or invite someone you already know with a link.
  2. Choose a timeSuggest a daily call time. Your chavrusa accepts it, or suggests another.
  3. Learn togetherJoin a video call with the day's daf open for both of you.
  4. Check inMark that you learned today. Your streak counts the days you both did.

Learn from the page itself while you talk. Tap the page and a pin shows your chavrusa exactly where you are.

Switch between the page and the text, in Hebrew, English or both, and make it as big as you like.

A reminder that knows when it's Shabbos

Choose one daily call time. You both get a reminder then. If you live in different time zones, each of you sees it in your own.

Reminders pause for Shabbos and Yom Tov, and can send one when it ends.

Choosing a daily call time

A streak you keep together

A day fills in when you both learned. See your longest streak, your days together, and every month you've kept going.

It's much harder to skip a day when someone is counting on you.

Safety and privacy

You are talking to a stranger, so we built in the controls that matter.

Report and block. If anyone makes you uncomfortable, report them from the app. The chavrusa ends right away, the two of you are never matched again, and a person reported by several people is paused from matching.

Calls are not recorded. Video and audio pass through our call provider, LiveKit, so you and your chavrusa can hear each other. They are not recorded or stored.

  • We keep your email, first name, time zone, call time, check-ins and notification token.
  • We don't sell your information or use it for ads.
  • You can delete your account inside the app at any time.
