What it does

Nothing to look up. Nothing to turn back to.

Daily Office assembles each office the way the Prayer Book directs, so you can simply read from the top.

✠

All four offices, complete

Morning Prayer, Noonday Prayer, Evening Prayer and Compline, each with its psalms, lessons, canticles, collects and prayers set out in order. Directions to the people stay on the page, in red, as the book prints them.

✠

The Prayer Book’s calendar

Seasons, the date of Easter, the precedence of Sundays, Principal Feasts and Holy Days, and feasts transferred as the book transfers them. Choose any date, in any year, and the office is ready.

✠

Rite One or Rite Two

The office in traditional or contemporary language, with the same psalms and readings either way — and page references to the printed book, so you can follow along in your own copy.

✠

The choices are yours

Where the book leaves a choice to the Officiant — the Invitatory, the Confession, the Suffrages, the Creed, a third lesson, your parish’s patron — make it once in Settings, and the app keeps it every day.

✠

A page worth reading

Turn pages like a book or read in one continuous scroll. Six themes in light and dark, careful typography, adjustable size and spacing — and typefaces designed for low vision and for dyslexia.

✠

Entirely offline

Every word of every office is on your device. No account, no sign-in, no tracking, and nothing fetched while you pray. It works the same on a plane, in a chapel, or in the woods.

✠

The right office, at the right hour

The app opens on the office for the time of day — or where you left off — and keeps Compline after midnight with the night before, the way you actually pray it.

✠

Pray it together

Officiant and People are marked on every exchange. Share the day’s office as a PDF — a printed page for the bulletin, or a phone-sized page for a friend who prays from a phone without the app.

✠

Made for each device

Swipe on iPhone and iPad, use the keyboard on a Mac, look to scroll on Apple Vision Pro, and read from across the room on Apple TV with the Siri Remote.

Questions

Frequently asked

Which Prayer Book does it follow?

The 1979 Book of Common Prayer of the Episcopal Church — its Daily Offices (pages 37–146), its calendar, and its Daily Office Lectionary. Rite One and Rite Two are both included.

Does it need an internet connection?

No. Every word of every office is on your device, and the app never waits on the network. It works exactly the same in airplane mode.

Do you collect any data about me?

No. There is no account, no analytics and no tracking. Your settings stay on your device. If you choose to send feedback, it goes by email from your own Mail app, and only if you send it. See the Privacy Policy.

Which Bible translation does it use for the readings?

The psalms are the Prayer Book’s own Psalter, as the book prints them. The lessons come from a licensed modern translation of scripture, named in the app under Settings → Sources, with its copyright notice.

Can I pray the office for a different day?

Yes. Tap the title and date at the head of the office (or use Go to) to choose any office on any date — last Sunday, next Christmas, or a day in 2030. The calendar works out the season, the feasts and the readings for any year.

My parish is dedicated to an Apostle. Does that change anything?

It can. Choose your parish’s patron under Settings → Parish Patron, and the eve of that feast takes the readings the Prayer Book provides for it (BCP p. 1001).

How are the three daily lessons handled?

The lectionary appoints three lessons each day. If you pray once a day, set Third Lesson to Gospel and all three are read at each office. If you pray morning and evening, choose No: each office reads two and the third is left for the other, as the book intends (BCP p. 934).

Is this an official publication of the Episcopal Church?

No. Daily Office is an independent app made by one person for daily prayer. It is not published or endorsed by the Episcopal Church or by Church Publishing Incorporated.

Is it available for Android or Windows?

Not at present. Daily Office is made for Apple devices: iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Vision Pro and Apple TV.

But anyone with the app can share the day’s office as a PDF, which opens on any phone or computer. Choose For Phones and it arrives as a page the shape of a phone’s screen, easy to read without zooming — so a friend with an Android phone can pray it with you.

What languages is it available in?

English. Daily Office sets the 1979 Book of Common Prayer as it is printed in English, and the app itself — its menus, Settings and Help — is in English too.

I think a reading or a rubric is wrong. What should I do?

Please tell us. Use Send Feedback at the end of Help in the app — it fills in the office, rite, date and your settings so the problem can be checked against the printed book. Or write to feedback@dailyofficeapp.com. More on the Support page.
