695,000 Shiurim in Your Pocket

The largest Torah audio library ever assembled is not in a yeshiva. It is not in a beis medrash. It is in an app — and it is available on any device with a KolBo Filter subscription.

The KolBo app Torah Player contains over 695,000 audio shiurim. That number is not aspirational — it is the current count, indexed and searchable. To put it in perspective: if you listened to one shiur per hour, eight hours a day, seven days a week, it would take you over 238 years to get through the entire collection.

Where the Content Comes From

The Torah Player aggregates shiurim from the major Torah content platforms:

• TorahAnytime — The largest online collection of Torah video and audio lectures, with thousands of speakers and daily uploads
• OUTorah — The Orthodox Union's Torah content library, including Nach Yomi, Daf Yomi, and halacha series
• YUTorah — Yeshiva University's massive repository of shiurim from roshei yeshiva, rabbanim, and scholars
• JewishPodcasts — Curated Torah podcasts covering hashkafa, mussar, parsha, and practical halacha

Every shiur is categorized by speaker, topic, and parsha. Search works across all sources simultaneously — type a rav's name or a topic and you get results from all four platforms in one unified list. No switching between apps, no bookmarking across multiple services.

How the Player Works

The Torah Player is designed for daily use, not occasional browsing. The interface prioritizes getting to content quickly: search, tap, listen. You can browse by category, filter by speaker, or search by keyword. Playback supports background audio, so you can listen while using other apps or while the screen is off.

The player works on any device — iPhone, Android, iPad, or computer. For filtered devices, it runs within the KolBo app. For unfiltered devices, it is accessible through the web at kolboapp.com. But the real power of the Torah Player is on a filtered phone, where it becomes the primary content consumption tool because the distractions have been removed.

Why Size Matters

A library of 695,000 shiurim is not just impressive in scale — it is functionally different from a smaller collection. With this depth of content, you can follow a single rav through an entire masechta over months. You can find shiurim on obscure topics that smaller platforms do not cover. You can switch between speakers and styles without ever leaving the app.

For daily learners, the library means you never run out. For researchers, it means the source material is almost certainly there. For families, it means every member can find content that matches their level and interest — from beginner parsha overviews to advanced Gemara analysis.

Included Free with Every Filter Subscription

The Torah Player — and all 15 tools in the KolBo app — is included at no additional cost with every KolBo Filter subscription. The base plan is $12.99/month or $129/year. The Family Plan covers up to five devices at $39.99/month.

This is the value proposition that no competitor matches: permanent device filtering plus a full Torah platform with 695,000 shiurim, Zmanim, Tefila Companion, Digital Library, Minyan Finder, Shabbos Planner, and nine more tools. Your phone goes from a liability to an asset — and the Torah content is literally unlimited.

Every shiur in the library is one tap away. The only question is whether your phone is set up to help you get there — or whether it is still full of the distractions that keep you from pressing play. Filtering solves that problem permanently.
