This is the iPad version of Breviarium Meum, which allows you to pray the traditional (1962 or earlier) Latin breviary of the Catholic Church wherever you go. You can download the texts up to a week in advance, so you can pray even when you don't have a network connection. A parallel translation of the breviary (English, Danish*, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese*, or Spanish) and an collection of Latin prayers and blessings are also included. Select the background color and text size you prefer.
Pray the breviary you know in a new way, or get to know for the first time the Roman Liturgy in the Usus Antiquior, considered by Summorum Pontificum as a precious treasure to be preserved and made accessible to all the faithful.
* The Danish and Portuguese translations are still incomplete. Several languages lack a translation of the martyrology. An English translation is used for those portions of the office not available in the selected language.

Fantastic, but with one complaint
This app is magnificent. It’s affordable, easy to use, and compiles all the parts of each office hour into a very user friendly interface. I am particularly grateful for its inclusion of other Office versions which are very hard to get physical copies of, such as the Divino Afflatu, and Trent versions. I am also grateful for its parallel translations that it prints right alongside the Latin text, since most Liturgical books do not include a translation.
My one wish for this app is to see it include the votive offices as an option, e.g. the Little Office of Our Lady, and the Office of the Dead. These offices are already on the DivinumOfficium website, so it should be relatively easy to incorporate these offices into the app.
Perfection
I do a lot of traveling, and this is the perfect way for me to pray Divine Office.
How i would love for Giovanni Manelli to creat a Roman Rite (Tridentine) missal with the readings in Latin and English/French/Spanish/Italian/German. That would be perfectly perfect!
Thanks so much for this.
Beautiful Breviary App.
This is a very nice app for praying the Traditional Breviary. I use it pretty much every day to fulfill my daily obligations.
The only thing which gets me about this app is the disappearing "Orationes" option. Pretty much every time you want to pray some of the prayers or blessings the option is not there to press. But is there just about any other time.
Over all the best Breviary app I have found yet, and very affordable.
Keep up the good work.
Gift from Heaven!
What a beautiful gift, Fathers! Thank you sooooo much. Waiting for that app long ages and I have it.
Indespensable!
This app is wonderful! It is so much easier to use than a print Breviary! No fumbling over pages and ribbons and trying to figure out which office to use for a particular day. I am a postulant in a traditional Carmelite Third Order society. Don't ever let it go away! Deo gratias!
Traditional Breviary
Excellent...Traditional Breviary, not much else to ask for on a liturgical side of things. Technology wise, it'd be nice to be able to download readings within the week for times of no Internet connectivity.
EXCELLENT APPLICATION
This Application is fantastic! If I could I would humbly suggest another application similar to this one (or that could be built upon it): an application that included all the Gregorian Chant for the office - so that we could not only recite the breviary but also sing the antiphons and psalms. I would pay a lot of money for such an application! Many many thanks for this application!
Very good update
I have deeply appreciated this update, mostly the additions for the "orationes". I hope that the next up grade will include the ritual of communion of the sick. It will be very useful going to bring communion to hospitals.
Fantastic app
This is the perfect app for Catholics who remain attached to the pre-Conciliar liturgy. You can turn on side-by-side English translations in the settings, making this a perfect way to privately pray the office in Latin.
Great App
Amazingly useful for those who want to recite the traditional office. I only wish someone would do the same thing for the traditional monastic office.
