The Shabbos App claimed to be a proposed Android app to enable Orthodox Jews, and Jewish Sabbath-observers, to use a smartphone on the Sabbath.[3][4][5][6] The app was supposed to appear in late 2014. Some argued from the outset that this project was nothing more than an elaborate hoax or prank.[7]
