Breviarium Meum

This Liturgy of the Hours has both English and Latin side by side to see the beautiful poetic prayers of old in their treasured original state. The prayers are the original prayers (unchanged, and unedited). This has really helped me to fall in love with liturgy of the hours due to the poetic and eloquent language used for the prayers, antiphones, and scripture passages.

I like this application very much. I was close to giving it five stars, but there are a few tweaks that ought to be made, I think, and I sincerely hope that the developers take my suggestions. First: add blank likes to the end of each hour. The last line is hidden by the menu on iOS and, though the last line is not necessary to see, it does make for a small distraction. Second: add markers that tell if an hour is complete or not. This would help the user to easily see where he is in his progress. The markers should be activated either manually in the list of hours, or automatically, after the user has scrolled through all the text of the hour. Lastly: having the ability to automatically download several weeks of the office at a time would be great. But overall it is a great app and one that I do not at all regret downloading.

This is an excellent app and the most useful for learning the Old Office. Even if you have books, this is a useful tool for beginners to check that their ribbons are placed correctly. I once thought there was error and contacted the developer who was quick to respond. May God bless those who maintain this app!
