### 4/5 — Very useful

*2025-08-14, version 2.2.1*

Great app that allows me to switch between the book and the app depending on the situation. Good customisation as well.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2024-08-30, version 2.0.4*

This app is great for… wait for it… The Daily Office. I love that it indicates the liturgical color of the day, provides a link for biographical info re: saints, and has the daily readings all in one spot. Super easy to use. It’s just great!

### 5/5 — Awesome Resource

*2024-08-13*

This is a great resource for anyone but especially one who uses the 2019 BCP daily. If you’re on vacation or in a pinch to do the office, here it is at your fingertips laid out perfectly without any flipping or navigating. Just scroll, pray, and learn. Beautiful app.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-07-27, version 2.0.4*

Great format. Accurate. Easy to use.

### 5/5 — Praise for the daily office

*2024-07-14, version 2.0.4*

As a member of a church that uses the common book of prayer, this app really helps our family out when we are on vacation and have to miss a church service. It also emphasizes worshiping God/Jesus any minute, any day. Have a blessed day y'all!

### 5/5 — Best Anglican Prayer App!

*2024-06-12, version 2.0.4*

Look no further! The best traditional & 2019 BCP app is here!

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2024-04-25, version 2.0.4*

I love how easy it is to use. I love the different settings. Very reliable.

### 4/5 — Wonderful, but you can’t use it anywhere

*2023-12-26, version 2.0.4*

I’m deeply grateful for this free app. It makes the daily readings and prayers highly accessible.

Unfortunately it requires an internet connection to use. So when I’m on deployments, out to sea, or just taking off on a plane, I am unable to use the app. During these times it would be especially valuable, as carrying the physical book is not always an option.

### 5/5 — Incredible App

*2023-11-29, version 2.0.4*

I am grateful for this app. I love the two modes, and will use them daily. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Anglicans are not praying to Mary

*2023-06-21, version 2.0.4*

Let me clarify on the point that everyone is talking about in the evening prayer 

“That we may be bound together by your Holy Spirit in the communion of the Blessed Virgin Mary and all your saints, entrusting one another and all our life to Christ,

We entreat you, O Lord.”

The prayer mentioned is asking the Holy Spirit to bind all Christians together. This is in line with the Reformed Anglican understanding of the Communion of Saints. The Communion of Saints is the whole church, past, present, and future, united in Christ. God the Holy Spirit brings all believers together. 

Traditionally, the Blessed Virgin Mary is employed as the symbol of the church in the Communion of Saints. This is because she is seen as the mother of Christ and therefore the mother of the church. She stands as a symbol of the unity of all believers in Christ. 

The prayer is for the unity of all believers, including those who have already passed on to be with Christ, those who are still living, and those yet to come. The unity of the Virgin Mary and the rest of the saints is seen as possible now, as they are not truly dead but are at home with the Lord. This is in line with the Reformed Anglican Theology belief in the resurrection of the dead, where all believers will be raised and united with Christ.

### 5/5 — Praying to Mary

*2023-06-13, version 2.0.4*

Anglicans do pray to Mary, so keep it in. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-02-10, version 2.0.4*

I am not Anglican, but have used this app, and the actual prayer book, for the past couple of years for daily reading. The developer has been great in responding to several email questions I have had and sincerely wants to make an app that is helpful for its users. I recall asking about some additional settings that have been incorporated in the new version. I remember asking about adding some additional translations which the new version has done! I remember asking about adding the occasional prayers in the prayer book for easy access on the go, and not only has that been done, but you can actually add them to appear in the text of the daily office for any of the prayer times. When I first started to use the new version there were some glitches (what app doesn’t have some) for example when choosing a translation that doesn’t have a version of the apocrypha it was blank for those readings. I emailed the developer who responded with an apology, fixed the problem, and emailed me back asking for further feedback on the problem to ensure it was fixed all same day. I love the app so much that I offered to support further development financially and was assured that things are covered, and that wasn’t necessary at this time. There aren’t too many apps in the App Store where a developer uses their own time to create something simply for the benefit of others without any expectation of a reward. Sounds a lot to me like gospel ministry in a somewhat unique, and powerful way to me personally, and I’m incredibly grateful for the work that’s been put into this app.

### 5/5 — I love it!

*2023-02-04, version 2.0.4*

The family prayer mode is especially sweet.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — ACH! Nah…

*2025-02-25, version 2.2.1*

This is the electronic version developed by the racist sexist republican acna group not in communion with the rest of episcopacy. Their prayer book version was a bigger joke than they are. If you’re going to prefer a traditional prayer book, use the 1928 BCP. Flipping your nose at the 1979 and making a more chaotic mess than the 79 is certainly a look. No thanks.

### 1/5 — Settings do not work

*2024-09-10*

Cannot select Bible version and some other options    No matter what you choose, app settings are stuck on what the default setting is

### 1/5 — New version awful

*2022-11-30, version 2.0.3*

This has been my favorite app used daily for a couple of years but the new version is awful. The font is huge and it does not remember what you set it to. The clean look is gone and it now looks like an old website that should have been updated long ago. It lists officiant/people on the left (formerly you knew one was bold and the other was not), leaving only enough room on the right for very short rows of text (so annoying!!!). Why did they have to destroy such a good thing? Previously it was so aesthetically pleasing it encouraged you to use it just by its beauty; now it is so awkward and bulky I can hardly stand to use it. Ugh!

### 1/5 — Please add traditional language

*2020-09-13, version 1.1.1*

This is a beautifully designed app. The interface is simple and there’s lots of customisations possible. It would be perfect if a traditional language setting were possible.

### 2/5 — WiFi Needed

*2022-12-08, version 2.0.3*

The new app requires WiFi, so you’re really just connecting to the website and are not able to access morning and evening prayer offline. I’ve written to the makers of this app, but they are unresponsive.

### 3/5 — Audio functionality issues since last update

*2026-02-18, version 3.1.2*

With the most recent update, the audio functionality seems to disappear or I have to close and reopen multiple times for it to appear

### 3/5 — Update Broke Stuff

*2026-02-17, version 3.1.1*

The newest update makes it so that I can no longer go to “today’s readings”. It just shows a banner to financially support the app but doesn’t show the readings. I loved the app before the update!

### 3/5 — Get rid of the blue arrow!

*2025-07-22, version 2.2.1*

Please get rid of the blue arrow that with the lightest touch scrolls all the way up or down in whichever daily office you might be doing. VERY frustrating. Also need to fix the glitch that causes the text to be too big if your phone is orientated differently ie you turn it from vertical to horizontal or from horizontal to vertical. That too is very frustrating.

### 3/5 — A good resource but …

*2023-02-08, version 2.0.4*

Why, at evening prayer is there a prayer which includes in the communion of the Blessed Virgin Mary and all Your Saints? Do Anglicans pray to Mary? I know Catholics do, but not Anglicans so I have to leave this verse out.

### 4/5 — Love the app but content is messed up in some places

*2026-01-27, version 2.2.1*

My husband and I use this app every day. Lately we have noticed bible passages in the daily readings that appear to have missed the eye of an editor as we see instances of the text missing spaces between some words (e.g.,  Jeremiah 26:2 for Tuesday Jan 27, 2026) and shortened versions missing many verses (e.g., Genesis 25 for Monday Jan 26, 2026 - missing verses 19-34). It would be really great if you would fix these issues. We don’t remember seeing these problems in the past but now we are noticing them quite frequently.

### 5/5 — Very convenient

*2026-07-06, version 3.1.3*

I love the book of common prayer of the Church of Jesus Christ it in it’s a historic beauty has helped millions of Christians grow closer to Jesus Christ gain biblical literacy and prayer literacy so on. This app is very convenient for those on the go or just want to go through the daily office without the household of having a flip pages in the physical book of common prayer. It’s the same readings. It’s the same prayers just in a convenient digital format, I love it.

### 5/5 — AMAZING ThANK YOU

*2026-06-14, version 3.1.3*

This is amazing, it’s a way to do your daily prayers without owing a BCP like me, one thing I ask to be added eventually is a dyslexic font. I LOVE the audio which helps me so much but sometimes I have to read it and the font would be amazing!!! Again thank you for This app!!
❤️✝️❤️

### 5/5 — Best prayer app on the market

*2025-08-18, version 2.2.1*

I find this app to be more functional and user friendly than any other app I’ve used other than hallow. Would recommend!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2025-06-26, version 2.2.1*

This is a great app for those who use the 2019 BCP. Typically I use a physical copy morning and evenings, but sometimes, when traveling or whatnot, using the physical BCP can be difficult. At these times this app is super helpful—keeping me in prayer and daily Bible reading. A beautiful app.

### 5/5 — Seamless Daily Office

*2025-03-24, version 2.2.1*

This app brings the daily office to believers in a seamless interface. The ease at which this app makes it easy to pray daily is integral to my morning routine. The codex form of the daily office can be, at times, cumbersome to navigate, especially if you are not familiar with all of its various intricacies. Thank you for simplifying the daily office in this easy to use app! A great way to start the day and end your night.

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2025-02-19, version 2.2.1*

I never thought I’d want an app over a hard copy book but this is changing my mind!

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2024-12-30, version 2.0.4*

Easy to use. Best app on my phone.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2024-11-13, version 2.0.4*

Thanks be to God for this app. I love praying out of my physical BCP, but this make it much easier when i don't have as much time in the mornings or when I'm on the go. The layout and features make it super accessible and fun to use.

### 5/5 — Easy and useful

*2024-10-18, version 2.0.4*

This app makes the daily office simple. I’m new to all this, but this app took the guess work and confusion out of it. It’s rare the convenience and holiness meet so seamlessly. God bless.

### 5/5 — Book of Common Prayer on the go

*2024-09-24, version 2.0.4*

If I don’t have my physical copy, this is the next best way to pray the daily office. It is so easy to go through, and it is a clean design as well. Very thankful for this app
