Divine potential!

It can be improve and reach the succes of the French version In uop ;)

Thank you !

Waiting for the spanish App.

Wonderful but...

Could you allow us to copy and paste? It would be very useful when there is a prayer or hymn which inspires to be able to copy for personal use .... Thank you

Great update

I like the musics a lot. About the login issue it occured but i uninstalled the app and installed it back and it worked fine.

Magnificat

I was so excited by this app and have been looking forward to it. I was really disappointed that you need to have a connection at all times to use it. Thats not always an option for an iTouch user. Im further disappointed that this point isnt in the description. I really enjoy the Magnificat publication and was looking forward to having it on my iPod, but Ill be going back to iMissal for my daily readings.

Clunky & requires Internet connection

At the very least you must connect once a day to download each section. Cant even view credits or About without being connected to the Internet. Forget it. Both free and paid apps are out there that will provide the same material and more without the constant need for wi-fi or 3G

Needs major improvement

The load screen and main menu are fine, but that is about as high quality as this app gets. The fonts and font size used for the prayers section are small and painful to read.

Magnificat

Disappointing that it wouldnt let me purchase second month. Readability is not good. iMissal definitely a better choice at this point.

Helpful - Thanks!

Getting a free July issue at Phoenix Lifeteen Conference this year, I subscribed for the print version last week after realizing the Magnificat really helped me grow in my prayer life and will only continue to do so. But it takes a month for the first one to arrive so this free app really helps tie me over until September! Clearly it states that next months will be 1.99 but thats worth it for people still deciding if they want the yearly print subscription. Worth every penny considering the spiritual value. My favourite is the Meditation of the Day...consoles the afflicted, giving strength for the days battles.

Great spiritual resource

Magnificat isnt commonly used here in Canada. How I wish it was! I enjoy the spiritual reflections and saintly profiles, as well as the cover art every month. I dont really use the morning/evening/night prayer (theres another app that gives you the whole Divine Office). Still, a great resource.

Great!

This app (as well as the book itself) is awesome - it has the minimum daily requirement of spiritual food: daily readings, morning and evening prayer, and the best daily reflections Ive seen in a devotional. All that, and art, too! I highly recommend it - it has the potential to form a consistent, and often profound, foundation to your spiritual life. (Just wish they had an iPad version!)

Love it

I love the ability to take the readings, the reflections and Saint of the day with me wherever I go. The app works well for all the designed elements. I also like the reminders it gives me. It helps us pray daily and stay connected with Gods word whenever we want. Once you have downloaded the issue for the month, it goes with you all the time, even without a Internet connection. The app is easy to use. Thanks for the great prayer companion!

Amazing!

This has made my morning prayer amazing! I love the structure to it and all of the different prayers it has. The meditation section and the saint of the day is also really neat and interesting!

Dont get this if your church doesnt do optional memorials

Waste of time. They put every optional memorial in and dont allow you to access the ordinary readings. My church almost never does memorials, so my text never matches the mass. If you gave the option for both you get 5 stars.

100% Worth the Subscription

This subscription contains for every day a breviary (Divine Office) suitable for both religious and laity (morning, evening, and night prayer), a Mass missal, daily Lectio Divina, lives of the saints, a monthly art appreciation, and monthly hymns and excellent editorials. All of these things take just 5 minutes, or more with meditation. Whether you want to use a couple for morning and evening prayer, or utilize all by taking a few times several times a day, all laity and religious can benefit from a subscription to Magnificat. Very loyal to the Magisterium, reverent, and the themes are applicable to current events (such as prayer intentions for political candidates during election year and on July 4, etc.). Pros: - Seamlessly go back and forth from the printed version to the app. - The entire month downloads at once so you dont need to rely on being near wifi/phone signal. - All the editorials are in the app, as well as RECORDINGS of the monthly hymns. - My husband likes to read on the app while I read in the book, so we can pray together. - Our whole family enjoys the different Grace Before and After Meals prayers that come out each month. Con: - The words are black and red on a cream background. For night viewing we would like gray words on a black background.

A blessing....

Love my Magnificat on my phone! Great for when I cant find my copy.

Needs an Update for iOS 10

I love the app and being able to get access to the readings and commentary and prayers every day, wherever I am. However, since iOS 10, Im getting a message that the app will slow down my iPhone or iPad because the app needs an update. There havent been any updates to the app since 2014. It is overdue.

Error message of shame

The new OS from Apple give the error message that this app will slow down the performance of the iPhone/iPad because they have not upgraded to the new version of the software. Big government and big corporations will make you comply or you will be shamed. This is a tactic straight out of the progressives playbook. Apple doesnt like bullying but they are the first one to punch Magnificat in the nose and try and steal their lunch money.

Great stuff, but...

Whenever I purchase a new month, my family members have to reinstall the app so that they can access the restored purchase.

Please fix

I love the Magnificat, and was excited to use the app on my iPad for the first few months. It hasnt worked properly the last three months. I am paying for each month as I download, but cant access it. Please fix or refund the previous three months of purchases. When working this is five star app.
