Join the thousands of people who use Universalis daily Daily psalms, prayers and readings from the Catholic Liturgy of the Hours, seven times a day: Morning Prayer (Lauds), Evening Prayer (Vespers), Night Prayer (Compline), the Office ...
Use this daily The alerts and hourly moments small verses are great Support staff is great Definitely recommend for reading the Liturgy of the Hours on the go                     Must have Raul.H.
This is good Very helpful                     Good Sttawk
Why do I have to pay extra for audio when I ve already paid 11 00 for this app I don t quite understand this extra fee I paid good money for this app and the audio should be included         Money money money Testyteri
Love this app and use it almost daily My only complaint is that when I attempt to get it to play to audio recording of morning prayer in the Liturgy of the Hours it kicks me out of the app Which is disappointing Also can the other Hours such as Evening Prayer get an audio option I think that would be great                     Love it but franciscangypsy
That when invoking night mode the app hijacks the brightness setting which I always have set to automatic So I have to reset the brightness settings every time I use this app at bedtime                 Love everything except Rjpfay
Get IBreviary or one of the others that are free or cost less This app is one of the most expensive and has no benefits over free versions You can t even use the iPhone speak function it s locked out You have to buy it from them Save your money Once you buy an app there is no getting your money back     Waste of money gmarczewski
Great app A tad expensive for not as accurate translations as official Breviary Any way to remove the red play button from bottom left in future updates would be appreciated                 Option to remove red play button clusoe80
Lost forgotten disconnected too difficult and unappreciative are no longer applicable to Catholicism when using this app For me and others it neatly presents the gifts of the Church wrapped so well that everyday is s gift The more you invest in the app the greater the reward                     The Miracle of Digitalization Mercerbaby18
Please add the Revised Standard Version catholic edition for the readings at Mass Some African countries use the RSV                 Readings at Mass joebosah
if you are buying this for the Divine Office don t the text is wrong It is not the version used by religious or lay people in the United States If used by a lay person you will not be able to say the Office with others in group or community Other than that the app is excellent             WARNING MUST READ jquimb
This app is a great Catholic resource for those who travel It matches my Christian Payer with out having to carry a large book Thanks                     Great App Marine157
I used to subscribe to monthly mass booklets that had the daily and Sunday prayers This one does it all for a fraction of the price Or free if you want day to day Easy to use Has alternative prayers Scroll or page turn your choice Great addition to your religious app library                     Best for mass Peteowlsmith
Lots of great information in a classy format that is easy to use This is my missal at mass The use of other bibles would help when visiting some churches It does need an option to clear your calendar if you accidentally populate your calendar with a year of info                     Amazing stressengr
When I m home I prefer the four volume LOH but when I m in my office I like this app When you re praying privately it doesn t matter what translation you use prayer is prayer If you want to use the official prayer wording then use Latin But this app won t work for you if you absolutely have to use the same English as in the printed volumes The app is constantly being improved Having said all this I would like to see crosses marking the Gospel canticles as a reminder to make the Sign of the Cross when reciting those parts                     Excellent Arel R
This text is fine for devotional use Only priests and religious in the United States are bound to the official American texts I personally use this translation as well as the official American version                     Perfectly Fine Version for Lay Devotional Use Mark G.
Contrary to the readers who obsess about your incorrectness lack of true Church approach to LOH This app is one class act And it continually improves on itself The perfect way to carry the LOH with me Thank you                     Wonderful Rittersportster
All the options for every Eucharistic prayer isn t showing up all the time             Ok Jenny back up
This is absolutely my favorite app to use for Catholic mass when it works Unfortunately there have been too many occasions such as now when there are prayers that are left out or or incomplete Currently the prefaces are a problem but there have been other issues on and off in the past The app developer is attempting to be helpful but is currently unable to resolve the issue I would caution against buying this app while these issues persist         Great when it works 9845
I looked extensively for the best app to follow along in mass I wanted to see the daily collects prayers seasonal prefaces and the various eucharistic prayers in English and Latin This has it all and it s easy to use Much more so than say the Magnificat app Keep in mind this is just ordinary form no extraordinary                     The best Catholic app Canyonvillain
Excellent Includes mass readings and optional memorials Works offline                     Excellent faithfuldisciple
When I upgraded from the freebie version of this to the paid version I thought the translations would be NAB across the board Since I live in the USA this is what I need What I found was that I can get that translation for the daily readings but for the LOH which is really what I wanted this app for everything is frequently all wrong The translations may or may not be NAB but the psalms hymns etc are not correct It seems like the app is Euro focused There is a more expensive Divine Office app that contains the liturgy for America so I m out the money for this app and now moving to that one When reading reviews of this app consider the country the reviewer lives in         Well put together but no good for USA MikeK1065
Great app as always but latest update has made the date selection bar white on white can t see dates Hope you can fix it soon I use night mode all the time as a preference finding it easier on the eyes Peace                 Latest update put night mode date selection bar white on white Rev. 0.
While I appreciate the page turning effect and other upgrades I really miss being able to see the time especially but also the battery indicator etc at the top of the screen I wish I could go back to the prior version         Indicators hidden PeaceNickel
This app is a must for any Catholic priest religious I ve been using it for over 3 years now and it has been so helpful for personal use as well as for projecting the divine office and mass readings during retreats and prayer meetings And I m really pleased that they now have the apple page curl                     Perfect jpgeorge
just started using it but can t figure out how to make the lettering larger             Universalis mousie14
This app is great for praying the liturgy of the hours it loads quickly and I ve not had any problems with it shutting down unexpectedly or acting buggy                     Great functionality easy to use Maman08
Easy to navigate many features uses can be easily used offline I tried a free app for the hours too and it didn t hold a candle to Universalis One of my top apps                     Everything I hoped for and more cjac
I bought the full app years ago the recent modifications means that if you try to scroll through the pages too quickly you get a yellow banner notice about making the font smaller YOU CANNOT SCROLL THROUGH TOO QUICKLY WITHOUT SEEING THIS IRRITATING AND UNNECESSARY YELLOW BANNER Who thinks this is a good idea Why is it there ALL THE TIME         Irritating modifications Booksurfer
This is a great App for praying the Liturgy of the Hours It contains all I need for my daily Catholic prayers and Mass readings There are a number of font choices and you can easily adjust the font size It does not contain the vocalization of the prayers like alternative Apps but it is more than I could have expected I highly recommend this App                     Universalis ChapShawn
I read the readings for the Mass for the next day every evening It s a great preparation and reminder and it gives me a chance to look up puzzling passages to reflect upon I love this app                     Indispensable daily connection to the liturgy Jbredmo
Hello I offer nothing more than 2 actual quotes from Universalis support 1 I was having trouble with translation of the Divine Office and was told Universalis presents the psalms and canticles in English for the whole world except the USA 2 Since this was not mentioned in the app description was bought in good faith and was no of no use to me in this state I asked for a refund of purchase price I was instructed to LIE to Apple if I wanted a refund by stating that I bought the app by mistake which of course is not true If you let Apple know that you bought the app by mistake then they will probably give you a refund As I will not LIE for any amount let alone 15 I will live with a lighter wallet but with my morals intact may peace always find your hearts jeff     PLEASE READ ME BEFORE PURCHASE
This is a great service if you have the pre iOS7 version The iOS 7 version is very hard to read My opinion dont take the update     IOS 7 version hard to read
I have used this app daily for over a year I am totally satisfied with its content and its performance It is easy to use and offers a variety of options I love that one price pays for use on all my devices Worth every penny                 Totally satisfied
The full app is well worth the money It is wonderful to have all the reading from both the breviary and mass available to me anywhere Format is well done and easy to read Thank you for your work and cant wait to see whats next                 Well done
Very useful and versatile ap however it would be a great ap if it also in concluded in the order of mass the collect prayer the prayer over the gifts and the prayer after communion for each day If those were added it could conceivably save thousands of altar servers arms from having to hold the new 20 lb Roman Missal              Good Stuff
The full Office with several nice options like either using the same invitatory psalm every day or a different every day All this with a lifetime license Good people with a great app                 Been using the PC version for years and this is just as good
Excellent app but the size of font should be able to be changed similar to internet version              User
Good app giving me access to all this offline My biggest suggestion would be to allow the font size to be altered              Good App
Update The updates have made this nearly identical to the standard books used in the US Wonderful Original Im a deacon in the Catholic Church and so daily Mass readings and praying the Liturgy of the Hours is part of my daily spirituality Having used this app I want to provide as complete a review as possible Cost To equal the 4set Liturgy of the Hours 140 and a Daily Missal 75 in physical books costs over 200 32 for all that in a weight free version on a devise I love to use anyway iPod Touch with complete offline access is a small price to pay Translation The translation used throughout is different from the US translations Im guessing its the Great Britain text so while it works for private use it wont work if you pray with others using different translations LoH note Connecting bits are missing from the Liturgy of the Hours Antiphons prayers after psalms Responsory after the reading are not there Again fine for private use but confusing if praying with others so use the books then Program use Text is pinchable and zoom remains while using the program Does need to be repinched each time its opened again Text size is likely fine for most but I need bigger text I have nystagmus fluttering eyes from brain injury Text is very clear when zoomed Finger scroll advances the text as is intuitive Dates Navigation to any date is easy and intuitive via scroll wheel Readings are accurate for those I checked at least through Ash Wed 2025 Summary Highly recommend this for anyone who wants offline Mass readings or Liturgy of the Hours Thank you for an excellent app Original Review prior to use and 20 software update for Touch Presuming this app works like the webpage I am very excited about no longer needing to carry my LoH and Lectionary when I go backpacking Im a deacon My one question is could the antiphons be added before and after the Psalms and Canticles                 33 for complete LoH and Lectionary Wow
Universalis is the best It worth every penny I have been using to for many years and have versions on several devices The iPad version is wonderful I appreciate the continual improvements I use the large text with black background on the treadmill This app makes reading the daily office very convenient No excuses now Thank you                 Daily must
Feb 4 update erratically transitions between landscape and portrait Landscape seems more stable but titles for psalms are sometimes incomplete Transition to portrait may result in blank pages This is surprising since previous versions have behaved very well Similar problems on both iPad 3 and iPhone 5C running iOS7           Update Issues
I bought the full app years ago the recent modifications means that if you try to scroll through the pages too quickly you get a yellow banner notice about making the font smaller YOU CANNOT SCROLL THROUGH TOO QUICKLY WITHOUT SEEING THIS IRRITATING AND UNNECESSARY YELLOW BANNER Who thinks this is a good idea Why is it there ALL THE TIME        Irritating modifications
Great app if available for Kindle Fire When when will this app be available for the Kindle Fire Our Lord Blessing Always Cecil Kim              Kindle Fire millions left out
So much easier and affordable than any book versions Navigation is easy I would like to be able to switch background colors For instance black background with white text or a sepia background with black text Ive also us d the Universalis website to create an ebook ok for my kindle Very easy Highly recommended                 Love it
I love this app It has almost everything I can think of to make it possible to follow Mass to pray to read The two things I would love to see are the response of the responsorial psalm in both languages selected ie in English and in French and a selection of votive Masses as well as that Mass of the day or of the feast I love reading about all those venerable English martyrs great examples for us today Thanks Universalis              Almost perfect
I have been using Universalias for several years now and it has more or less replaced my old increasingly worn physical copy of the divine office The calendar of saints the mass readings and now the integration with the iOS8 today screen all add further value to what was already a fantastically good deal For practising Catholics or anyone interested in an aid to private devotion this App should be on the must have list                 Fantastic FullFeatured Devotional Toolkit
For the cost of 1299 the US user has access to the official Liturgy of the Hours throughout the day and no wifi is necessary Some apps offer similar prayers but not the official translations due to copyright protections The tutorial walks you through all the controls so you can easily adjust text size brightness etc I like to say Lauds and Compline only so I adjusted my screen so that I see light words on a dark screen This is good for my eyes at around 6 AM and 9 PM I was also able to set notifications through the app to remind me to pray Considering what it would cost to purchase the Divine Office in book form about 125 on Amazoncom and considering how much I struggled with finding my place even with a Shorter Christian Prayer book this app has taken out the guesswork at an affordable price You can choose between flipping the pages as in a book or scrolling view There are many other features I dont have the space or time to comment on here but read the Universalis details section in the app store and Im sure youll be impressed Do take the time to walk through the tutorial after purchase so you dont have the same issues as previous reviewers I strongly recommend Universalis                 This app is wonderful I use it daily
just started using it but cant figure out how to make the lettering larger           Universalis
Thank you Mr Kochanski for this beautiful app And thank you for sharing the loss of your mother Thérèse with us That means so much I count it honor and privilege to pray for her and her son and daughter May Thérèse Kochanski rest in the loving arms of our beloved Jesus May God give you peace beyond all understanding with your loss May the Lord continue to use Thérèse to lead the way to you Lord Jesus My mother is still living at 85 but becoming more frail each year I do not look forward to the day I lose her but will rejoice that she will be home with her Lord Many blessings to you and yours I look forward to remembering you all in my prayers Love you brother in Christ John                 ver 151
The calendar shows nothing iOS6     The calendar shows nothing iOS6
I use it as a missal and for the divine office                 Great app
Keep it up                 Love it Esp Mass Today
Easy to navigate many features uses can be easily used offline I tried a free app for the hours too and it didnt hold a candle to Universalis One of my top apps                 Everything I hoped for and more
Update The new version is even better the mass today combines all the different prayers antiphons readings and order of mass into one So great Keep up the good work Universalis This app is great for a few reasons 1 All of the content for every day of the year for all three years of the cycle is offline on the app No Internet connection whatsoever is required 2 The app is very well programmed with hardly any bugs or crashes 3 The daily mass readings are the same word for word NAB translations used at mass 4 The Order of the Mass texts and the readings are formatted nicely and very easy to read 5 With the price of this app you also get the desktop version of the app for Mac The about today feature is also great The only thing I would change is that itd be nice if the LOTH texts were the same as in the USA breviary though thats not a huge deal Overall this app is fantastic youll use it every day                 Worth every penny
Was looking for 2 weeks before found this app ok new to all this Have the books but wanted something portable This is GREAT Would be wonderful if it also had a listening option for when cant sit down and read Really good app to have                 Excellent App
The app does not offer anything traditional Its based on the Vatican II New Mass and New calendar The readings are not from the Catholic DouayRheims Bible     Nontraditional
I love thus app because I can access readings at mass without internet connection It would be even better if the opening prayer prayer over the gifts preface and postcommunion prayer are also included              Very useful app
This app is one class act And it continually improves on itself The perfect way to carry the LOH with me Thank you                 Wonderful
Pray using this each day Great design I agree with those who have asked for larger font selections The current sizes on Ipad are hard for older Catholic eyes                 Great App
I originally gave this app five stars and now after the updates I wish I could give it six The parallel GreekEnglish is fantastic for my needs and the artwork in landscape book mode was a pleasant surprise I dont mind the NJB readings for the hours because most Breviaries use the Grail psalms and so I can use this app when praying with a group                 Fantastic
Easy to navigate customize which are great strengths in addition to being able to adjust the font size on the fly no need to get out the reading glasses at mass Think twice or three times before changing the navigation because its the strength of this product                 Easy to navigate customize
You can now pray the Divine Office everyday even without Internet connection Wonderful                 Wonderful
I bought this when it was still priced at 32 It was way overpriced Well there were no other options before Its current price is still high when other apps function the same way Now there are better ones I have imissal and Im very happy with it only 499 And iBreviary which gives you the whole mass prayers liturgy of the hours readings and other rites And its free of course you have to download every now and then which can last you for 2 to 3 weeks Universalis has the liturgy of the hours but the translation doesnt match official translation so that you cannot really join in community recitation for having a different version Will I recommend universalis If its your first time you can get the 2 apps above cheaper free and it will do the job as a combination        Other apps will do the job
Now you can use it to say Mass when traveling because it has the priest part too Fr Mike                 Finally priest parts
Fantastic reading options include ability to change dont sizes typeface brightness and even switch to night mode Navigation is easy and intuitive                 Awesome
Booklet facing page is fine Needs letters to be bigger for easier read Convenience for travel without wifi is neat idea              Small letters
This is a great App for praying the Liturgy of the Hours It contains all I need for my daily Catholic prayers and Mass readings There are a number of font choices and you can easily adjust the font size It does not contain the vocalization of the prayers like alternative Apps but it is more than I could have expected I highly recommend this App                 Universalis
This is a more expensive app but definitely worth the money Is based directly on feast days gospels of that day                 Excellent
I bought this 3 years ago Its usefully my jobs and my friends had used I hope that you update with many languages That allows many else using better Thanks              Good version
Two small things 1 Including the propers would be awesome 2 Embedding the readings propers etc into the order of Mass so we can just scroll down one long page to follow along would be even more awesome              Lots of content easily usable
This app is great for praying the liturgy of the hours it loads quickly and Ive not had any problems with it shutting down unexpectedly or acting buggy                 Great functionality easy to use
By far the easiest way to use pray the Liturgy of the Hours No jumping around to find the complementary psalms several platforms available so you never need to be without your breviary I love that the optional commerations are included Ive tried other ebreviaries but this one is definitely a keeper                 This app just keeps getting better
I read the readings for the Mass for the next day every evening Its a great preparation and reminder and it gives me a chance to look up puzzling passages to reflect upon I love this app                 Indispensable daily connection to the liturgy
Upgraded to iOS 8 and now this app will not install on my iPad Air Com on Universalis Pubs pleas update this app for iOS 8     iOS 8 killed this app on my iPad Air
This has always been a great app for praying the Divine Office but it has now gotten even better with the addition of Latin for all the hours of the day I am truly impressed                 Great app gets better
This is one of my best purchase ever                 Awesome app
Wonderful I have just started to pray the Liturgy of the Hours This app is perfect with clear instructions and is easy to use Highly recommended And its entirely portable and reliable Praise Jesus                 OUTSTANDING
It works as promised I made an snook of the readings and put it on my e reader This has helped to deepen my prayer life                 Great app
Great app Great prayer tool for when traveling                 Loving it
I really love Universalis and I have used it for years It is a great app Today I downloaded the latest update and then I discovered the auto update events option and suddenly voilà the Catholic calendar shows up in my iCal You dont know how long I was looking for some way to make that happen And now it is because of you and your great product that seems to be getting better                 This app keeps getting better
