Beautiful addition to my prayer life
Changing a widget doesn’t always make an app better. A selection of widgets in this case is preferable.
Was once faithful to the Magisterium but no longer
In today’s commentary on the Gospel, I came across this little gem: “To fail to appreciate the other great religions of the world is an act not of homage to the Christian God but of failure to appreciate the divine omniscience and omnipotence.” There is only one true religion in the world and all others are in opposition to it. If we allow them even one foothold in the battle that Christ has called us to engage in, then we have lost the entire war and will be responsible for the loss of countless millions of souls. I for one have decided that Universalis no longer teaches orthodoxy and will therefore go elsewhere for my Divine Office.

Amazing during the pandemic
Thank you for making this app. It is so helpful as I try to pray and live a liturgical life during these times when churches are still closed here in Ontario, Canada. God bless you.
The absolutely best app!
I’ve been using Universalis for years. I love it and it keeps getting better. I use it every day. In recent years my husband has developed dementia. The spoken version adds a whole new dimension for us. We now pray spoken morning prayer together and he uses it to pray the Rosary most days. I couldn’t be without it.

Love this App
I use it frequently and really appreciate it- simple and intuitive- no bugs or issues- a blessing and a help!
Thank you very much!

A very portable Breviary
As an Oblate, I use ‘Benedictine Daily Prayer: a Short Breviary’ which whilst compact, is still some 1200 pages and requires a large pocket or bag. This App is fabulous for praying the Offices on the move, and at work. In addition, I particularly value the Lectio Divina. For me, it doesn’t replace my Breviary, but highly recommended for when one’s daily work prevents having it. I pray that God will bless you richly as you encounter Him through the Offices. Ora et Labora. Pax!

I CAN’T BELIEVE ONE WOULD GIVE LESS 5
I can’t believe one would give it less that 5 stars. When I give reviews I make sure that I’m being very honest because I do not want to deceive others and prevent them from getting the true benefits of the product. I’ve used this for over 10 years and shared it with priests. We used it in Jerusalem, Corinth, etc where there’s no internet. The freebie version requires internet. This one, you pay once and you can use anytime. And share it with your spouse or family if you have family sharing cell phones. I recommend it to my prayer community. It’s awesome and useful.

Superb, useful, essential!
This really improves your spiritual journey - making prayer more regular and essential texts more conveniently available. The app provides everything you need to say or attend Mass or Divine Office. Frees you from heavy volumes while travelling or when sitting on the seashore to pray!
Abroad you can hold the Mass in English in your hand. The developers are adding improvements all the time - sung Compline, hourly prayer thoughts, personal memorial cards etc etc. Considering the vast amount of material to be tamed this app is superb, easy to use, and trouble free.

I’m a 2-year daily user
Modernist commentary is offensive to conservative and traditionalist Catholic sensibilities. Otherwise would offer 3 stars. To get 4 stars it would need the option of RSV-CE Bible translation. 5+ stars would be earned if it included the Latin readings and calendar.
Superior app for the Mass readings in Liturgy of the Hours
This app is far superior to any others for both the readings of the Mass, and the Liturgy of the Hours. It is accessible whether or not one has access to the Internet. The new addition of the spiritual reading is very helpful. I also like the Lectio. I utilize nearly every section. Thank you for your continuous updates and improvements. I have been using this app for over six years.
