“Loading”
It’s a great app, when it works. Recently it seems I’m getting more “loading” messages with no text showing up. Or other similar errors.

My app has a problem getting the date and the readings right.
A Few Small Deficiencies
The Collect for Peace is inaccurately labeled as the Collect Again Perils.
There should be setting for a default choice for the version of the Lord’s Prayer.

Excellent app, mostly
This application is very good, except for one bug (?) I hadn’t noticed before: no matter what Psalter you choose in settings, the text displayed is apparently that of the “Inclusive Psalter”, which really does change around and play with the language a bit, as compared to the original. The 1979 BCP or Coverdale 1662 Psalter would not show up, despite me repeatedly selecting those in settings. I believe this (apparent inability to display other than the “Inclusive Psalter”) must be an unintended bug. The app is otherwise excellent and very well done, functionally and aesthetically. Until this Psalter issue is fixed though, I expect I’ll be going back to the books or use some other electronic/online resource.

Brilliant, beautiful BCP app
This is the most beautiful, functional, dependable and customizable app for the Book of Common Prayer (1979) that I’ve come across — and I’ve seen almost all of them. So many devotional options and a login that retains your particular preferences day in and out. Highly recommend.
Methodist Turned Episcopalian
If you are interested in the read aloud feature, then skip down to Moira (Irish) in the settings. None of the American accents sound terribly natural. The whisper isn’t disappointing in American accent considering this is prayer.
The best daily office app …
If you want the 1979 Episcopal Book of Common Prayer. The other apps follow the 2019 Anglican BCP which is on a different schedule for its lectionary. Plus this app has amazing customization!
Nice, but is it broken?
I really like what this app has to offer. Unfortunately, when I try to create a bulletin, I make my choices, and after that, the screen goes blank and doesn’t create a bulletin. The app also hangs when I tried the contact us for support action.
By and large an excellent app
I’ve really enjoyed using it and it is by far the most streamlined, beautiful, convenient and customizable Common Prayer phone application I have found. My one complaint is that I can’t figure out how to add collects. The Prayers and thanksgivings are no problem, but I can’t find a list on the app from which to select the desired collects during the offices. I’m used to using the 1928 BCP which uses the Collect for Peace with the office and, as of yet, I can’t figure out how to add it to Rite I. If this is resolved, this app will be basically perfect!

Ridiculously good – especially for a religious app!
I can’t believe how well built this app is. No gimmicks; just incredibly helpful customization options at every step, wrapped in a tasteful design that gets out of the way. One of the very few genuinely great religious apps!
