Helps us to center our day around Christ
The Universalis app is a truly wonderful, amazing and God-centered Catholic app. Purchasing the app enables us to have all the daily Readings of the Mass, and the Liturgy of the Hours, and more, at our convenience at all times. No internet needed. I bought this app in 2017 when I went on a Marian pilgrimage to enable me to have the Mass Readings handy as I travelled and, ever since, the Universalis app has been my every Mass go-to app. I highly recommend Universalis!
Option for Filipino Mass (and if possible Divine Office too)
Being that there are many Catholic Filipinos, I would suggest in the next update to add the official Filipino translation of the Roman Missal as a language option alongside the standard English one, it’s hard to get a Filipino hand missal these days and being that I payed for this app it would be convenient to have another language option for us Filipino Catholics. And if possible, add the official Filipino Translation of the Liturgy of the Hours if there is one, as well as other parts of Universalis that may have a Filipino version. May God bless you.
A great guide
This helps me in my spiritual reflections and journey.
🙏🏼
I love the app! But could you please add the Ordinary Rite of Mass or Latin Mass? Thank you and more power!
Convenient guide to Mass
This app is very convenient when I use this for the Mass. The prayers and the readings are seamlessly woven and I don’t need to close one and open another side of it. It has also regular updates as additional enrichments, thus making this app very relevant.
Still tops
A true blessing!
German Language
I hope you can add German language on the app soon.
Setting for changing hymns version
Very helpful app specially if you want to dig in to psalms. Can we have setting to change the version of hymns? I like the previous version than the last update. :)
Excellent, a favor pls,
This is just what I need-a portable lectionary and sacramentary, May I request order of the mass for funeral and for wedding? Thank you.
