Since the days of Saint Mark, the Coptic Orthodox Church has prayed the same words. Koptos carries them in your pocket — the Holy Bible, the Agpeya and the prayers of Holy Week, in Coptic, English and Arabic. Open any chapter and the three languages stand side by side, column beside column. Read in the one you think in, the one you pray in, or all three at once. THE HOLY BIBLE All 73 books of the Coptic canon. Highlight a verse, keep a note beside it, or save it to return to. A verse waits for you each morning. THE AGPEYA Every hour of the daily prayers, from Prime to the Midnight Prayer, with the Psalms in full. Ask Koptos to remind you, and each hour arrives at its proper time. THE HOLY PASCHA Holy Week hour by hour, from the eve of Palm Sunday through Good Friday, as the Church prays it — the Coptic, the English and the Arabic together. THE SYNAXARIUM The saint remembered on every day of the Coptic year, their life told in full. Turn back a day or forward a day with a swipe. FEASTS AND FASTS The Coptic calendar, its months and its seasons, so you always know where you stand in the year. THE COPTIC TRANSLATOR Move between Coptic, English and Arabic a word or a verse at a time — with the pronunciation spelled out, so you can say it aloud rather than only read it. FIND A CHURCH More than 600 Coptic Orthodox churches across the world, with addresses, phone numbers and directions. It works with no signal at all. BIBLE QUIZ Questions drawn from the Scriptures, a new contest each week, and a leaderboard to climb. Koptos works offline once installed — on a plane, in a village, in the middle of the liturgy. There are no adverts. Nothing is sold. Your reading is yours alone and is never tracked. An account is optional. It exists for one purpose: to carry your notes, your highlights and your quiz progress to your next phone. منذ أيام مار مرقس، والكنيسة القبطية الأرثوذكسية تحافظ على صلواتها. والآن، يحمل "كوبتوس" (Koptos) هذا التراث العريق في جيبك — الكتاب المقدس، والأجبية، وصلوات البصخة المقدسة، متوافرة باللغات القبطية، والإنجليزية، والعربية. افتح أي إصحاح لتجد اللغات الثلاث جنباً إلى جنب، في أعمدة متوازية. اقرأ باللغة التي تفكر بها، أو تلك التي ترفع صلاتك بها، أو اجمع بين الثلاث معاً في آنٍ واحد. الكتاب المقدس أسفار الـ 73 كاملة. ظلل آية، وأضف ملاحظة جوارها، أو احفظها لتعود إليها متى شئت. ولا تنسَ، فهناك آية تنتظرك كل صباح. الأجبية كل ساعة من الصلوات اليومية، من باكر وحتى صلاة نصف الليل، مع المزامير كاملة. اطلب من "كوبتوس" أن يذكرك، لتوافيك كل صلاة في ميقاتها. البصخة المقدسة صلوات أسبوع الآلام ساعة بساعة، بدءاً من ليلة أحد الشعانين وحتى الجمعة العظيمة، تماماً كما تقيمها الكنيسة — بالقبطية، والإنجليزية، والعربية مجتمعة. السنكسار سيرة قديس كل يوم من أيام السنة القبطية، مسرودة بكامل تفاصيلها. تفرَّس في سير الأمس أو استشرف الغد بسحبة إصبع بسيطة. الأعياد والأصوام التقويم القبطي بشهوره ومواسمه، لتظل دائماً على دراية تامة بموقعك في مسيرة السنة الكنسية. المترجم القبطي انتقل بسلاسة بين القبطية والإنجليزية والعربية، كلمة بكلمة أو آية باية — مع النطق الصوتي المكتوب، لتنطق الكلمات بلسانك لا بعينك فقط. ابحث عن كنيسة أكثر من 600 كنيسة قبطية أرثوذكسية حول العالم، مرفقة بالعناوين، وأرقام الهواتف، واتجاهات الطرق. والأروع من ذلك؟ يعمل التطبيق بكفاءة تامة حتى بلا أي إشارة إنترنت. مسابقة الكتاب المقدس أسئلة مستوحاة من أعماق الأسفار المقدسة، وتحدٍ جديد كل أسبوع، وقائمة متصدرين تنتظر أن تحجز مكانك في قمتها. يعمل كوبتوس دون اتصال بالإنترنت بمجرد تثبيته — على متن طائرة، أو في قرية نائية، أو حتى في قلب القداس الإلهي. لا إعلانات مزعجة. لا شيء للبيع. قراءتك ملك لك وحدك، ولن يتم تتبعها أبداً. إنشاء الحساب اختياري تماماً، وهدفه غاية واحدة فقط: أن يحمل ملاحظاتك، وتظليلاتك، وتقدمك في المسابقات إلى هاتفك القادم بكل أمان.
