About this app

The v2 update supports Android 11 and later

Integrate the Church of England's pattern of daily Bible readings seamlessly into your life with the official Common Worship Lectionary app for iPad.

For each day of the church year, it presents the Common Worship lectionary readings in full, complete with dynamic links to the Bible passages themselves (NRSV translation). All approved variations are clearly presented, including the Additional Weekday Lectionary.

The app also allows you to:

- Access the Collect and Post-Communions for the day at the touch of a button.
- Mark and annotate records – ideal for service planning.
- View the week's lectionary in a single page.
- Start your annual lectionary whenever you like: no need to wait for the new church year.
- Remove the first paragraph of text about errors (should now be resolved)

The app is free to download and includes a free 14 day subscription. After this period, an in-app subscription must be purchased to receive further content.

There are two types of subscription available:

- Basic subscription: Lectionary references, Collects and Post Communions are always available, but NRSV Bible readings are only available when you are connected to the Internet (£4.99 for 12 months).

- Full subscription: includes all NRSV Bible Readings immediately available at all times, even when you are not connected to the Internet (£8.99 for 12 months).

3 month subscriptions are also available.


The Common Worship Lectionary app includes the official Calendar, Bible Readings (NRSV) and Collects from the Church of England.

Ratings and reviews

I have previously used this app for 3 years without issue - it was excellent and the best of its type. Now it is unusable. But now I have been unable to use the app for sometime as it doesn't accept my 'offline subscription' which is all paid and fine. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, tried on multiple devices, restored my purchase within the app, but I cannot use the lectionary - I am properly subscribed - but I have no access. So I've paid for nothing.

paid and have never been able to access. it is very frusrating. I have contacted customer service and they give a 3 month free trial as they can't solve the problem either.It is a shame because it is a useful app if/when it works. Please get it sorted.

I have been unable to renew my subscription this year, and now I'm unable to contact support via the app, My subscription is showing as active on Google play but no luck with anything. Really bad service. Use the paper version.
