What's New in Lucerna

1.3

July 17, 2026

A redesigned home screen and offline listening, plus a round of playback fixes. The home screen is now built around Moments. A featured story sits up top, with the other listening states laid out below so it is easier to find something that fits where you are right now. Premium users can download stories for offline listening, and the free stories are kept ready so they play. If you are on a free 7-day trial, you now get a gentle heads-up before it ends, both as a push notification and in the app, with a direct link to manage your subscription. No surprises. You can also turn the narrator greeting off in Settings, and enable notifications from Settings. We fixed several playback issues: stories no longer quiet themselves at the start, lock-screen controls stay responsive, and Start Over works reliably. Plus the usual round of stability and polish.

kids in bed, this on

Mom of four. The 10 minutes after the kids are asleep is the only quiet I get. Lucerna fills it the right way.

My new commute

I drive 40 mins to work and listening to a Lucerna story on the way in has changed how I get through Mondays. The Annunciation one is my favorite so far.

Beautiful and unexpected

I downloaded this thinking it would be another devotional app. It's not. It's stories... Saints, scripture, prayers. They're read like someone who actually knows them is telling you about them. The narrators are real people, not AI-sounding. Highly recommend for anyone in a hard season.
