Ratings and reviews

An extremely helpful, complete, and user-friendly app for those wanting to pray LoTH. I simply pick a day and hour, choose options like invitatory, and it puts everything up in order to pray through. So much easier than flipping around in a much more expensive book. Also contains extras like daily Mass propers and saints of the day. All in-app, does NOT take you to third party websites I could find for free on my own. Only thing missing is musical notation for the hymns. Overall excellent.

This app was not working for a while, or so I thought. I had the cell phone navigation bar hidden, and it was interfering with getting the drop-down menu. I fixed that. I'm so glad I have full use of this app again. It has become a stable in my prayer life. When I couldn't get it to work, I missed following Mass easily. My parish has a Latin Ad Orientem Mass. I find the section where you can have Mass in English and Latin extremely helpful.

Terrific app! Love the format, custom notifications, and options. One bug I've noticed is that every Hour after the first one you pray, will start on the last page. It seems like a feature to "pick up" where you left off if you close and reopen the app, but it applies it to all prayers. So when I close the app on the last page of morning prayer, it will open mid morning prayer on the last, and so on. Otherwise keep up the great work and God bless!
