Please could you add an auto scroll feature when playing the audio of each devotion which follows where the speaker lands! :) thank you! ### 5/5 — Phenomenal! *2026-05-08, version 4.7.0* Such a wonderful help with prayer and focus. I use it every day, day & night! It puts me to sleep peacefully. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Refreshing *2026-04-26, version 4.7.0* After experiencing this type of prayer and devotion time in a church journey group I longed to practice this in my own devotional times. I thought “There has to be an app for that.” And there is…Lectio 365! It is a terrific aid in helping me slow down,be still, and know God is God, and I use it daily. ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2026-04-15* Such a great app to be rooted and mindful of God’s presence. **Developer response:** Thanks for the positive feedback! ### 5/5 — Amazing! App . *2026-04-01, version 4.7.0* To start your day with Lectio 365 is one of the best ways ever - it gives hope new insights fun ideas history facts inspiring stories!, ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2026-03-19, version 4.7.0* Election has helped keep me anchored to a prayer rhythm, which I have never managed to achieve before. The prayers are wonderful, based on scripture and with space to listen and respond. Thank you for making such a wonderful app ### 5/5 — The Best Way to Start and End the Day *2026-03-18, version 4.7.0* I discovered Lectio 365 a fair few years ago and I listen most mornings and every night just before I go to sleep. Quite simply, Lectio 365 has ensured I pray each day, thoughtfully, with love, with gratitude. For those who manage to seamlessly pray with focus within the busyness of their days, I envy you! Now I have a daily prayer habit that is transformative, and helps me to start and finish my day prayerfully and with thought. I tune into the midday prayer when I can - and that too is excellent. I can’t recommend enough for those who want to ensure they put aside some time with God each day, helpfully guided by wonderful leaders. ### 5/5 — Muito bom! *2026-03-15* Aplicativo sensacional para devocional e um bom ritmo com Deus! **Developer response:** Obrigado pelo seu encorajamento! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-03-09, version 4.7.0* Amazing user experience! ### 5/5 — New User *2026-03-03, version 4.7.0* Only been using this incredible app for a couple of days, but what I’ve experienced thus far is a peace that washes over me as the narrator reads. I can take time out of my day to focus on Jesus and all he’s done for me in my life. I can’t believe this is free. Thank you for creating this app. I look forward to using this multiple times a day. Blessings. Dave ### 5/5 — An excellent devotional tool *2026-02-28, version 4.7.0* I have been using Lectio 365 since 2021, and I have found it enriches my walk with God. ### 3/5 — App needs work *2026-02-26, version 4.7.0* I just started using this app since a friend recommended it. I’m loving the daily prayers so far! The app itself, however, needs some work. It seems there is nowhere to access the daily prayers that I’ve favorited. The archive section mentioned in the FAQ for accessing the last 30 days doesn’t seem to exist. Also, in the Meet the Team page, only the bio for one of the team members comes up, and there are no bios for the rest of the team. It seems the app needs an update to tweak things and become a truly great app. ### 5/5 — Perfect Rhythm for Liturgical Background *2026-02-25, version 4.7.0* As someone who comes from an Anglican background and really enjoyed praying the Daily Office, it’s been a struggle to find an app for Christianity in general that did something similar that didn’t require the “pay to pray” feature. This has been a perfect replacement for the Daily Office routine I was used to and I love the quick and easy prayers and structure! ### 4/5 — Love the app but *2026-02-21, version 4.7.0* Please restore the Accessibility for the text when using VoiceOver.O ### 5/5 — Such a well done prayer app *2026-02-19, version 4.7.0* I’ve tried may apps and read many books, but this has walked me through what prayer can be, resting in God’s presence, praising, using Scripture. It brings it all together so beautifully. I love the 3 prayers throughout your day and can’t even explain how much I look forward to the nightly prayer and being in His presence as I fall asleep :) ### 5/5 — Love this *2026-02-13, version 4.5.0* Best guided prayer app. I didn’t like many others because they were too self focused. It was pick what “i” need/want/struggle with and while yes we are to come to the Lord with those, that is not the sole purpose. The purpose is to worship the Lord with prayer that includes praise, thanksgiving, asking and repentance. This app helps me to remember to not make it about me and my kingdom and my will, but about the Lord and His kingdom and His will be done. It’s beautifully done and transforms prayer time. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Best Prayer App! *2026-02-09, version 4.5.0* This is hands down the best prayer app I have ever used. The quality is so well done and it really helps me connect with God each day as a busy mom. I love that there are morning and evening prayers each day as well as a midday prayer. It brings scripture into each prayer as well. It really helps me to stop in the midst of my hectic days and remember to talk with and listen to God. I highly recommend! 🙏🏼💕🙏🏼 ### 3/5 — Needs some improvement in content *2026-02-02, version 4.5.0* I’m not sure why they created a new shabbat on Sundays. Just say on this Sunday instead. I liked the app overall but the idea of forcing shabbat on Sundays is wired and all this new age songs (singing bowls and hindu stuff) not sure if it’s appropriate for a Christian app. ### 5/5 — God working though this app!! *2026-01-26, version 4.5.0* I feel and see the Holy Spirit working in my, using this app as a tool, 3 times a day, stopping and mediating on the word. Would definitely recommend if your wanted to change your life for the better!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No longer works! *2026-02-11, version 4.5.0* Not sure what has happened, but I’ve been using this app for some time, and for the last few days, it has stopped downloading content altogether. I have tried deleting the app, and reinstalling it, but the problem remains. (I use the audio content) ### 1/5 — Error in play button *2024-12-07, version 3.2.1* Please take a look at the Audi play button. It spins only. ### 1/5 — This is not Lectio Divina *2024-05-02, version 2.0.10* That is all ### 1/5 — Need help *2024-02-06, version 2.0.0* Hello, we love this app, however recently after the new update I can’t open the app. It keeps flashing out. Please kindly fix or advice solution . Thank you ### 1/5 — Mrs Colliver *2023-10-02, version 1.8.10* Colliver This latest update requires iOS13 or later thereby disenfranchising everyone with an older iPhone. Eg IPhone 6 will not install iOS beyond iOS 12. The Lectio365 app software engineers should be mindful of this when creating their updates to the app. It is important that Lectio 365 does not tailor their app to just the minority who can afford to acquire new phones every year. Lectio 365 is meant to serve the poorer members of society as well as those who care about sustainability. ### 1/5 — Crashes on start up *2023-08-20, version 1.8.9* Latest version crashes on start up on IOS 12.5.7!! ### 1/5 — Where is the name of Jesus Christ *2023-01-20, version 1.7.8* Recently downloaded and have been using for a week however I’m now very concerned that the name of Jesus Christ is not used , not even in beginning or ending prayers. I ### 1/5 — behind the times *2022-11-21, version 1.7.7* there is no nighttime mode , so have to struggle with apples brightness mode turned on and the brightness of my mobile turn low in order to use it. ### 1/5 — Blocks *2022-06-11, version 1.7.5* The app is great but non functional. I always need to restart my phone in order to use it again :/ ### 1/5 — Depressing *2022-06-04, version 1.7.5* Daily devotionals that left my wife and I feeling sad and uninspired rather than full of faith and excited for a new day. We are both emotionally healthy individuals and love the range of fellings that every human can encounter but Lectio is extremely one sided. We went through almost 40 days of prayer and devotion, always hoping things would get better but finally gave up when we realized that Lectio must be for folks that love to explore sadness and pain. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thank You *2026-08-27, version 4.11.0* Thanks for making a way to capture some of the prayers to share through creating an image. I like the logo in the corner! ### 5/5 — Best App I’ve Ever Downloaded *2026-08-12, version 4.9.0* Seriously…download it ### 5/5 — Window to heaven *2026-08-03, version 4.9.0* Simple yet deep; rooted in ancient paths yet fresh & world conscious; poses challenging questions; spurs to action. ### 5/5 — Best Prayer App! *2026-08-01, version 4.9.0* The content of this app is stunning. The prayers are so beautiful and well thought-out. I come away from each one so grateful that I took the time, and also find myself often surprised at the challenge of digesting some of the messaging-in a good way! This app is such a gift, I feel God in the generosity of this offering. ### 5/5 — Inspiring! Daily food for the soul *2026-07-20, version 4.9.0* Lectio 365 is a joy! Morning, noon & night it gives encouragement, wisdom, inspiration & deep insights for life. Thank you!! ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2026-06-23, version 4.8.10* I absolutely love starting and finishing my day with the prayers on this app. My son and husband have asked me to listen with them before bed. The words and prayers fill us with peace, hope, and strengthen our faith! ### 5/5 — Download & Enjoy *2026-06-02, version 4.8.1* Appreciate the optional reminders to pause the business of my day and recenter my thoughts to the insightful, short lessons with scripture, insight, stories and encouragement. My opportunity to spread the Gospel as my family and friends have been downloading Lectio 365 App after hearing my praise of it. ### 5/5 — Love it! Need iPad Version! *2026-05-29, version 4.8.1* Love this app. Has been transformative in giving me more structure to my prayer life. As a Youth Pastor, I pray often, but I lacked consistency and intentionality. This app has helped! One suggestion: I would absolutely love a version that works well with my iPad. ### 5/5 — Excelente *2026-05-27* Amo muito o app ### 5/5 — Free and Authentic *2026-05-20, version 4.8.0* It doesn’t matter at all what denomination or church you belong to, this is an all encompassing FREE prayer app. I have been using this app for a little less than a year and I don’t do reviews often, but I see not a whole lot, so I thought I’d contribute. The app does get a bit repetitive with that structure and scripture, but honestly it’s great for grounding and feeling connected to others and God. Overall great app. Thanks guys! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
