Universalis

Have been using this app for the last 4 years. Excellent aid to help you pray the Divine Office when you're unable to take out your physical copy. Has worked out perfectly for me. The quality of the app makes it really worth while having it with you.

Two questions: why can't I copy and paste single verses anymore. (a whole blue square comes around the whole passage) - also... Will this app go over to the new esvce ordered by Catholic bishops in u. K? The readings for daily Holy mass

I basically love the app but recently the responsory converted to the short form and I can't figure out how to turn it back to the long form.

Please could you advise why the texts are not appearing - am only seeing blank pages with audio options (which I have not subscribed to). Have tried re - installing. Thanks, God bless.

An extremely helpful, complete, and user-friendly app for those wanting to pray LoTH. I simply pick a day and hour, choose options like invitatory, and it puts everything up in order to pray through. So much easier than flipping around in a much more expensive book. Also contains extras like daily Mass propers and saints of the day. All in-app, does NOT take you to third party websites I could find for free on my own. Only thing missing is musical notation for the hymns. Overall excellent.

Cant see the text. Same problem with one of the reviewers. Need help.

Terrific app! Love the format, custom notifications, and options. One bug I've noticed is that every Hour after the first one you pray, will start on the last page. It seems like a feature to "pick up" where you left off if you close and reopen the app, but it applies it to all prayers. So when I close the app on the last page of morning prayer, it will open mid morning prayer on the last, and so on. Otherwise keep up the great work and God bless!

If you want an OFFLINE breviary full of useful features, then you want this one. It is without a doubt the app that I use the most on my phone and it never lets me down. And on the service and support side of things, Martin does a terrific job of answering questions and just being a good guy. Give this one a look and I think that you'll be very happy with it. And if you DO like it, then consider buying the optional translations, as well. They're also good and it all goes to supporting a good cause.

I can't speak highly enough about this app...it's a multilingual (also latin) gateway to the liturgy...you won't be disappointed...10 stars!

Praying the Divine Office in public (where most of us live a large part of our lives) was a nuisance and a burden. At home I love the big clunky books, but dragging them everywhere was a bother. No more! I travel a lot and use the app to follow the mass in English wherever I am. That gets stares as others think I'm checking my texts! I especially appreciate that the app simplifies navigating the remarkable complexity of Catholic liturgical worship. No missing the good stuff!

Excellent in every way: look, ease of use and accuracy. Well done!!! Just today, the text runs off the side of the screen... I've checked settings etc. but can't seem to fix it. This is the first glitch in years. I'm sure it will fix itself...

This app works well in my old phone but since I installed this in my new Poco f3, it does not function well. I could only see headlines without any text. What is happening?

I couldn't stand to use this until I found out that the reading and Psalm translations could be changed to NAB. This makes it easy to switch back and forth between Universalis and LotH in print. Now if I were stranded on a desert island and could inexplicably have a smart phone with only one app, this would be it. Please don't dismiss it because of the Jerusalem Bible translations that you'll see at first.

Since last update on android 6&9 text format runs "off the page"....please fix! OK Turning off Modern Mode fixes readings formating but disables page turning. No issue on phones, but makes my Likebook Mars e ink reader unusable. Need page turn to use. Update....app is fixed. Thank you Martin for your quick and considerate fix of this unexpected issue.

This was a brilliant app and I am sure it will be again. However the latest update has lost word wrapping. So at present it is almost useless. . This is only a problem in modern display mode (under settings), so still a bug but one that can be workedcaround

It's handy and helps one to pray anytime. I love the enlarged form of Lauds which helps one to have a glimpse of the gospel of the day and to meditate.

I've using this app for about six months. I am currently using it on an Android Ver 8.0.0 smartphone. The app is really well done! The creators have done a fantastic job in creating an user-friendly, feature-rich app to pray the Liturgy of the Hours. You have two different translations of the text, and can customize the content to accompany the prayers. Recently, the publisher just added a new feature called "Moments" in which a different short prayer is pushed to subscribers seven times a day. It helps me to refocus on God as priority throughout my hectic, distraction-filled day. Really well done and thoughtful app. Recommend it highly!

Since todays update, text is scrolling off to the right. To the extent that most of the text is missing! Was fine before. Have played with settings and text now wraps, but only with 'modern setting' off so I lose the picture of St. Athanasius! Only on this device. This you have now fixed. Thank you.

Find it very compatible with Android phone. Access to Liturgy of Hours etc. Really like the spiritual reading page & use it from time to time. Downloaded the app on tablet. Pages don't align properly. Text is outside margins & can't read properly. Can adjust this correctly either. Will the app be compatible for tablets going forward??

Excellent app. Concise but is also highly flexible to any preferences. Everything I need is on it. Cannot recommend enough. Only thing that would improve it is to have the sung version of all the hours too, instead of just Sunday compline. Would definitely buy it

Highly Recommended. This app is customisable to most religious format styles. Eg: Franciscan, Dominican etc, including the Liturgical calender for your area. A very convenient way to carry your Office and undertake the current Feasts days. Can be linked to the Office of Readings and you can even use the app to remind you. So convenient and easy to access, no more need to carry large books in our often busy days. RECOMMENDED.

This is the main way I pray the Divine office. At least it used to be. Right now on my phone I cannot switch from one hour to any other hour easily. I have to keep tapping the top of the screen until, maybe, the drop-down menu shows up. Please fix.

Worth every penny. Whole of the Divine Office plus Readings at mass etc

Excellent app, easier to use than the books! Important if saying the office with others to have the same settings, e.g. options for memorials, etc., regional variations and so on but onc you've tailored it, it works perfect;Iy. The hagiography on feasts is useful, too.

Update: the new Moments feature is a blessing throughout the day! Outstanding devotional app! All material is available OFFLINE with no internet access needed. Easy to use with only a very slight learning curve. This app has really helped my prayer and devotional life by making it very easy to pray with a variety of devotions at my fingertips. Well done! God bless!

Update Thank you for fixing the problem!!! Worked well before. Now, if I enlarge the font I couldn't read the entire texts. I tried using the smallest font size. The entire texts are still cut off. Please fix.

Ver. 2.98 The last update has caused the app not to wrap the text on my Asus tablet running Android 7 properly. On my Pixel 3a cell phone it wraps properly running Android 10. Just checked an older Samsung tablet running Android 4.4.4 the wrapping of the text is problem also. Seems to be a tablet issue. update: when you update to ver. 2.99 this fixes the problem.
