Offline Mass Propers This app is an offline version of the chant tools available at http://bbloomf.github.io/jgabc/ It is mostly intended to be useful for containing the Gregorian Mass propers as well as the Gregorian Mass ordinaries as found in the Liber Usualis, and transcribed on GregoBase (http://gregobase.selapa.net) and there may be some mistakes in the chant. If you notice any, they can be corrected in GregoBase (if you go to http://bbloomf.github.io/jgabc/propers.html and find the chant with the mistake, you can click the link above the chant on the left side to get to the GregoBase version of the chant, and edit it there to fix it, or request that it be fixed.)

About

QMate

Features
Read full description

QMate turns the timers you use every day into one-tap routines. Boil a soft egg, run a HIIT circuit, nail a pour-over, focus with Pomodoro. Save a routine once, then launch the whole sequence with a single tap. No setup, no fumbling with the clock app. WHY QMATE • One tap to start. Open a saved timer and it just runs. • Multi-step sequences. Chain countdowns and hands-free waits into one routine. • Never miss a step. Get an alert at every step and at the finish, even with the screen off or the phone locked. • Ready-made templates. Cooking, workout, and focus timers you can add and adjust in seconds. • Clear, steady countdown. Big tabular digits that never jitter. • Day and night. A warm dark theme by default, a bright one for daylight. PERFECT FOR Cooking and baking, HIIT and Tabata, stretching, Pomodoro and deep work, pour-over and French press, skincare, meditation, and any routine with steps.
