The only suggestions I have are to make the audio player more user friendly- it’s quite small and cannot be adjusted by moving a finger along it.

I appreciate the download option, adjustable reminders, as well. A similar touch I like is the location map. I also feel more involved in a community when I can pray along with multiple people. The audio recordings are especially helpful so I know what exactly to pray. I found it easier to use than ibreviary and appreciate its features. I like that this is an app rather than a website. The physical book is quite the investment so I looked to something online.
I’m glad something so simple is available to a beginner. It is my first intro into the liturgy of the hours which can be daunting for someone on their own. I recommend this app to friends all the time, especially to those who’d like to pray the Office but feel intimidated by the size of the printed version and getting the ribbons placed properly. I don’t use the audio version much but the few times I’ve traveled, it is so comforting to not have to skip the Office in order to keep my hands on the steering wheel and my eyes in the road. It is so calming of any worries to pull out my phone, open the app, and be able to connect with Our Lord at those times I need Him most. Many times I’ve been sitting in a doctor’s waiting room at the time of Mid Morning prayer. It is such a blessing to have the Divine Office in my pocket. Now I don’t need to turn a lamp on as I use to when I used the Office printed volumes. Praying in the dark helps me feel the presence of the Lord and keeps distractions to a minimum. When I rise in the early morning, it’s still dark. Having the Divine Office on my phone is absolutely the best thing ever! The sense of community is so wonderful as I see how many others are praying at the same time as myself. When I discovered this app, all of my concerns of ribbon placement were gone. While, I admit, I haven’t always been consistent in praying it daily, and I was never sure I had the ribbons placed correctly, it has helped me grow so much closer to Our Lord. I have prayed the Divine Office for many years. – showing checkmark by competed prayers Reviews In this way, prayers become liturgy, a way to fulfill our divine calling and a practical approach for addressing the suffering of the world.
