Lectionary: From the CofE
For each day of the church year, it presents the Common Worship lectionary readings in full, complete with dynamic links to the Bible passages themselves (NRSV translation). All approved variations are clearly presented, including the Additional Weekday Lectionary.
The app also allows you to:
- Access the Collect and Post-Communions for the day at the touch of a button.
- Mark and annotate records – ideal for service planning.
- View the week's lectionary in a single page.
- Start your annual lectionary whenever you like: no need to wait for the new church year.
- Remove the first paragraph of text about errors (should now be resolved)
The app is free to download and includes a free 14 day subscription. After this period, an in-app subscription must be purchased to receive further content.
There are two types of subscription available:
- Basic subscription: Lectionary references, Collects and Post Communions are always available, but NRSV Bible readings are only available when you are connected to the Internet (£4.99 for 12 months).
- Full subscription: includes all NRSV Bible Readings immediately available at all times, even when you are not connected to the Internet (£8.99 for 12 months).
3 month subscriptions are also available.
The Common Worship Lectionary app includes the official Calendar, Bible Readings (NRSV) and Collects from the Church of England.

Really helpful to have the readings and collects in full for every Sunday and every day of the year. The background information about Saints etc is also excellent.
I have paid for this, and my payment accepted but the Lectionary has not appeared. I needed to update my card - which I did, but still no joy. What do I do now? I have been receiving this for the past few years. Only giving 1 star although I have found it excellent in the past and 5 stars.
The app keeps jumping back to a previous week and mid week services aren't showing. I've also just had an alert to say the app will begin to charge me soon but I can't seem to unsubscribe.
It is not free. It is a trial, then you have to subscribe. Do not be fooled. You can download the readings list for free just by doing a Google search.
Clear and easy to use. Great addition for regular devotions.
It appears to want to charge me, and won't let me get beyond subscribing to hymnsam! Is this a chargeable app, or is it not?
Good app, does what it says, but is totally unclear about subscription price and conditions
App was great until it wanted me to pay for it 😔 it helped me practice the readings for church but sadly I have to delete it
The information I need to plan services and it is all very easy to find
Great for preparation and for use during services. The Annual cost is tax deductible w
Very convenient and helpful
I am looking for a lectionary for 2021 to 2022. This stops at the end of November 2021
Easy to use, helpful
Its really very useful app for liturgy.
After a short while wanting me yo subscribe. But available free on my phone??
I have installed this on my android phone and would like to install it on my windows laptop. How do I do this?
No copy and paste option! Why?
It's a good app I like it
Wow I can leave the books at home
Best
especially for preparing intercessions when it's my turn on the rota. I have a separate question : do you have an app for prayer during the night (for insomniacs like me!)? Belated thanks for reply - very helpful!
Decent app! Update suggestion : list the days of the week without showing the scripture references and prayers as long as you don't tap a day. This saves you from a lot of scrolling on Fridays and Saturdays
Really useful.
So much easier to use than the paper copies and excellent to have everything in one place.
I use it all the time. It is essential for anyone in ministry
The app is useful but it is relatively expensive, especially the off line version. Young people and those on low incomes should be encouraged to pray, not deterred by cost. Can the Church of England really not afford to subsidise this app so it can be offered free of charge to a world so sorely in need of prayer?
The date issue was a nuisance, but the app is very valuable on the whole...
This app never gets the date right. I could find the reading quicker in the book. Why can't it print too?
Very good for all members of the Anglican Church to have
Just installed and it looks good. Basic error, though: when you display a reading from the list for a particular week, and then go back, it goes back to the current week.
