What a magnificent app! Now I have no excuse not to pray my daily prayers despite owning an actual book for the liturgy of the hours. God bless you for making this app.

IT WAS GREAT... I had used breviary all the time prior to the latest auto update to ver. 4.1.6 (Dec '25) and Now it Never works. It only has Initialization errors & never opens, no matter how many times' app is reloaded, (Android 11.0) Need old ver. Back or debug! If there isn't going to be a BUG fix to Correct this version's "Initialization Error" Problems, could I somehow get a copy of the previous working release, so I could use it again??? Like I said the previous version worked GREAT!

2/10/26 - New version unusable if Google Play Store is disabled. Uninstalled. Sometimes days are incomplete, for example last week's Easter Vigil readings had no Gospel reading. The amt of in-app notifications keeps climbing & sometimes even duplicating themselves & is kind of annoying. Especially when they still pop up every single day like they're "new" even when I'm already subscribed to the newsletter & have even donated. Certain notifications never go away unless you uninstall & reinstall.
