Then "updated". Now cannot even open. Please fix - look forward to proper update. Still unable to access. This was a great app and very useful. Please fix. ### 5/5 — A useful app to enrich worship and prayer *2016-04-21, version 1.2* This is a blanket review for all of Jim’s apps. If you like this one, please consider looking at everything he has created. These apps are by no means perfect, but they are a good faith effort by an obviously devout Christian to share his gifts by creating apps that can assist others in worship and prayer. I had the good pleasure of sharing an email exchange with Jim and he assured me that he is working on getting his older apps updated. So I will wait patiently while he works to bring us something new. In the meantime, the current versions are entirely functional, if not always pretty, and do what they are meant to do. The rare glitch can be overcome by reinstalling the app, which is not really a big deal. If you’re looking to live a more reverent life, please support Jim by downloading this app, as it is reasonably priced and useful. Might I suggest for a future release, combining the 4 BCP apps into one single app so that the Sunday and Daily readings, as well as the Psalter and Prayers are all in one convenient place? You could charge $5.00 for it, which is about the combined price of the 4 individual apps, and I think it is a reasonable price to pay for an app that makes the Book of Common Prayer so accessible. Blessings ### 2/5 — Incomplete *2015-09-09, version 1.2* You won't find complete prayers for family. Some prayers and thanksgivings are incomplete or reworded. ### 5/5 — A great app! *2013-06-12, version 1.2* Helps me in my daily devotion and personal time with the Lord. It greatly challenges me to be more prayerful. What a great way to be directed in what and who to pray for each day. Thank you so much for this app. God's bests on you and your future apps. ### 5/5 — More blessings *2013-04-20, version 1.2* Great app for finding a prayer for any occasion. I hope everyone appreciates this app as much as I do! ### 5/5 — I enjoy using this app. *2012-12-16, version 1.1* I like this app. It is quite useful when I need to share a prayer. It is easy to use and read. I really like the choice of fonts. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2012-05-10, version 1.1* I love this app! I use it everyday. Very responsive customer service. ### 5/5 — Very Good *2012-04-27, version 1.1* The new bookmark feature is very helpful, especially for a relative Episcopal newbie who did not grow up and live with the BCP. ### 5/5 — Great BCP App! *2012-04-26, version 1.1* Thank you so much for this app! I've always liked having the BCP with me, having the prayers and thanksgivings section be so portable is awesome! ### 5/5 — Let's pray *2012-03-31, version 1.0* What a great solution to the perennial lame excuse of not having the time to pray. ## Frequently asked questions about Prayers and Thanksgivings ### What is Prayers and Thanksgivings based on?
