OrthoPrax

I have had this app for several years. I pay for the full subscription. I use it every single day in the morning and in the evening. One of the best features is the amount of information in the Synaxarion. However, lately it doesn't want to load. I came here in search of answers to see if other users were having the same issues and I see that they are. Again, I love this app. I prefer it over going to the OCA website, however what am I paying for if it's not actually working! The voice reading does work all the time however I like to read the information for myself, and I also love looking at the icon pictures that accompany the description. Please fix this app because I would hate to have to give it up. This is the reason I'm only giving it three stars - otherwise I would give it five. I am editing my review! The developers absolutely and quickly responded to this issue! Since the writing of my previous review, I have not experienced any issues at all. Thank you so much for giving me an opportunity to continue enjoying this lovely app and editing my review. I highly recommend this app.

It’s a pricey app and all its features don’t necessarily work. For example, when I go to a previous or future date, it shows all of the information for today’s date only. Therefore I really only have access to today’s information. Saints have always been slow loading, but got slower and slower, to the point sometimes, they no longer load at all. I am paying quite a bit for this app, so I do expect it to function. The problem has nothing to do with my internet connection or phone. Everything else I use works just fine. I contacted the app makers in the hopes that they could help. They told me to submit “send developer logs” via the app. Guess what? That doesn’t work either. I haven’t heard from them in weeks. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app helps, but I would have to do it daily in order to see improvement. It’s disappointing. PS: I see the app developers tell other users the same thing they told me. “It works perfectly.” Ummm…no, it doesn’t. The user shouldn’t have to reinstall it so frequently. That’s ridiculous.

I really love this app. IMO it’s the best orthodox app I’ve seen so far. The updated version is a big improvement and compared to the previous version is greatly easier to navigate. I LOVE the audio readings of the lives of the saints and the homilies. My only suggestions are to put the scripture readings in audio, and the additional prayers as well. Thank you for replying to my concerns and offering a “fix” as it did help. Sooo I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this app for ALL Orthodox Christians (old or new calendar). I think it’s the best app.
