Thank you everyone for your feedback, it allowed us to see what needs to be fixed or changed. We recently became aware, thanks to feedback from our visually impaired users, that zooming in on a desktop browser could trigger the mobile version of the Divine Office website, that tab bar on the bottom of the page. This issue has been affecting some users, making it harder to navigate to the prayers.
We have addressed this and now, even when you zoom in on a desktop, the mobile navigation won’t appear, effectively giving you more space for the prayer text.
We also made an adjustment to the red support button. Now, both on mobile and on zoomed-in desktops, the button will scroll away as you navigate through the page, freeing up screen space while you pray.
We are grateful to our community for bringing this and other issues to our attention. It matters and it helps!

Lord, free us from the dark night of death. Let the light of resurrection dawn within our hearts to bring us to the radiance of eternal life. Let not the Evil One reach us through the massive political upheaval to come. Help your faithful cling to you in our darkest hours of need.

Lord, thank you this for the everchanging view from my window: the wind blowing the last leaves from the trees, the birds coming to the feeder and those frolicking and gliding gracefully in the wind, and the movement of light and dark as gray clouds and autumn sun drift apart and come to gether.

Dear GOD, I pray for vocations to the priesthood. We need more priests for celebrating mass and the sacrament of reconciliation. Inspire the young men to answer God's call with joy. We pray for all such young men to be open to God's call to serve in HIS vineyard and we pray a blessing on them.

Pray anywhere
I have prayed the Divine Office for many years. [...] When I discovered this app, all of my concerns of ribbon placement were gone. 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. [...] Now I don’t need to turn a lamp on as I use to when I used the Office printed volumes. It is such a blessing to have the Divine Office in my pocket. Many times I’ve been sitting in a doctor’s waiting room at the time of Mid Morning prayer. 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. 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. 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. Thank you for developing this app. It is my constant companion.

Super helpful
I have only been introduced to the divine office prayers two times before I downloaded this app. It is laid out in a way that is very easy to understand, and there is an audio option that will say all of the prayers. There is an option to set reminders throughout the day. I got this because, I didn’t really know how to say the divine office, and I didn’t know what prayer books I needed to purchase to begin. During the shutting down of churches for covid :( this has been a wonderful resource. One cool feature is that you can tap on the “in prayer” link and see little specks of light around the globe lighting up in the area that someone else is praying. It’s so cool to see everyone praying with you and is a powerful reminder that we are all connected and unified in Christ’s mystical body.

Praying with the whole Church
I love this app! Since it is now free and no longer for sale, I made sure to donate the price of buying it, and then some. I have loved the Liturgy of the Hours for 25 years. But I always felt alone when I prayed it. With this app, I am connected to others! I use it in conjunction with my printed Christian Prayer volume. On other days, I cannot get to my book but with the app, I always have the prayers available. I have the printed calendar with my book, but I actually rely on this more for placing my ribbons. The audio is wonderful!! I often read out loud with it. I love that I can change the speed of the audio! I have found that 1.3 is good for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this app. Thank you for still supporting it. Thank you for updating the “one God,” to just “God” change in the prayers. My book still throws me off but your app is right! Highly recommend this. Many friends have it. THANK YOU!!
