Diese App macht Ihr iPhone zum praktischen Brevier für unterwegs und lädt ein, den uralten Gebetsschatz der Tageszeitenliturgie neu zu entdecken, wie ihn die Priester und Ordensleute seit Jahrhunderten beten. Ideal auch für Anfänger, da kein Zusammensuchen der Texte notwendig ist. Die Texte werden jeweils für zehn Tage im Voraus auf das Gerät geladen, so dass man anschließend das Brevier auch ohne Netzempfang beten kann. Eine Ein-Finger-Lesehilfe erlaubt eine diskrete Bedienung und hilft, sich auf die einzelnen Verse zu konzentrieren. Über den eingebauten "Glockenturm" kann man sich regelmäßig an die Gebetszeiten erinnern lassen. Herausgegeben vom Katholischen Hub für Innovation und Medien e.V. in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Deutschen Liturgischen Institut. Der Inhalt entspricht dem "Großen Stundenbuch" in gedruckter Form.
