App crashes when opening for Morning and afternoon prayer

But does open for noonday and compline prayer.

The readings are out of sync in some cases with the Book of Common Prayer.

morning prayer...forgetaboutit

Crashes. unable to open. needs major fixes. one star...was feeling generous.

Used to be great

The app used to be great - the best Daily Office out there - but recently stopped working - it crashes when Morning Prayer is launched. It still works for Noon and Compline. It hasn’t had an update in a year. I hope the developer comes back to it at some point.

Doesn’t Work

When I launch the morning office the app closes, every time. I have asked for support and received no answer. Very disappointing for ten dollars!!

Great, when it works

The fact that you have all offices with readings and tailoring available is great. The app crashes and freezes up all too often. If you don’t close the opening page next day you’ll be at the readings of the day before and unless you soft reset your device or delete and reinstall the app you’ll be out of luck. There are free apps with far more consistency.
