Fantastic, but with one complaint
This app is magnificent. It’s affordable, easy to use, and compiles all the parts of each office hour into a very user friendly interface. I am particularly grateful for its inclusion of other Office versions which are very hard to get physical copies of, such as the Divino Afflatu, and Trent versions. I am also grateful for its parallel translations that it prints right alongside the Latin text, since most Liturgical books do not include a translation.
My one wish for this app is to see it include the votive offices as an option, e.g. the Little Office of Our Lady, and the Office of the Dead. These offices are already on the DivinumOfficium website, so it should be relatively easy to incorporate these offices into the app.

Perfection
I do a lot of traveling, and this is the perfect way for me to pray Divine Office.
How i would love for Giovanni Manelli to creat a Roman Rite (Tridentine) missal with the readings in Latin and English/French/Spanish/Italian/German. That would be perfectly perfect!
Thanks so much for this.

Beautiful Breviary App.
This is a very nice app for praying the Traditional Breviary. I use it pretty much every day to fulfill my daily obligations.
The only thing which gets me about this app is the disappearing "Orationes" option. Pretty much every time you want to pray some of the prayers or blessings the option is not there to press. But is there just about any other time.
Over all the best Breviary app I have found yet, and very affordable.
Keep up the good work.

This is a great app. Thank you very much for this work. Please, keep it up. Many depend upon you for the correct recitation of the Breviary. If I had a few wishes which would make the app 5 stars, they would be that one could have the option to turn the pages like in a book instead of scrolling, that the corresponding translation for a verse or a strophe of hymn, or a saint in the Martyrology be aligned with the original, and finally that in portrait orientation, the menu with the list of offices not pop up so easily while one is scrolling down through an hour. That would improve the app immensely even if the cost with higher.

A really useful resource
A very usable and user-friendly app, with great content.
Gift from Heaven!
What a beautiful gift, Fathers! Thank you sooooo much. Waiting for that app long ages and I have it.
Indespensable!
This app is wonderful! It is so much easier to use than a print Breviary! No fumbling over pages and ribbons and trying to figure out which office to use for a particular day. I am a postulant in a traditional Carmelite Third Order society. Don't ever let it go away! Deo gratias!
Traditional Breviary
Excellent...Traditional Breviary, not much else to ask for on a liturgical side of things. Technology wise, it'd be nice to be able to download readings within the week for times of no Internet connectivity.
Essential Catholic kit for your iPad
Easy to use, easy to read parallel translations. Thank you for a excellent, straightforward app.
Highly recommended for those who prefer the older form of he breviary.

EXCELLENT APPLICATION
This Application is fantastic! If I could I would humbly suggest another application similar to this one (or that could be built upon it): an application that included all the Gregorian Chant for the office - so that we could not only recite the breviary but also sing the antiphons and psalms. I would pay a lot of money for such an application! Many many thanks for this application!

Very good update
I have deeply appreciated this update, mostly the additions for the "orationes". I hope that the next up grade will include the ritual of communion of the sick. It will be very useful going to bring communion to hospitals.
1.2 reverts iPad users to iPhone version!
I use this app every day and was pleased to see an update but shocked to find the old HD iPad app was gone, and I wound up with what appears to be an iPhone version!? Meaning, of course, you lose the page looks and a third the screen even at 2x.
Please...give me 1.1 back. The new prayers are a good idea but not at the cost of blowing the iPad experience away.....

Fantastic app
This is the perfect app for Catholics who remain attached to the pre-Conciliar liturgy. You can turn on side-by-side English translations in the settings, making this a perfect way to privately pray the office in Latin.
Great App
Amazingly useful for those who want to recite the traditional office. I only wish someone would do the same thing for the traditional monastic office.
Excellent app.
The app is very nice and getting better all the time as typos are corrected. The ability to cache several days worth of offices is terrific for those of us who use WiFi only. I have a couple of suggestions, though, that make it virtually perfect:
1. Add the Little Office of the BVM, the Office of the Dead, the Gradual Psalms, and the Penitential Psalms and Litany.
2. Add the Commons - it would be nice to observe local feasts in-app.
Neither of these detract from the app, though. Worth the download.
