Tactile Prayer

Attorney Dale Rye writes for The Living Church’s weblog, Covenant:

As promised in my post “Daily Office in Your Pocket,” here is a rather long list of smartphone and tablet applications focused on the Daily Office. As an Apple user for over thirty years, I have naturally used iOS devices. I am therefore more familiar with apps for iPhone and iPad that can be found in the U.S. App Store. However, most of the following can also be found in the Google Play Store for Android. Many of them are available as well for Windows Phone, Kindle Fire, Blackberry, and generic mobile browsers. I have probably missed some, so I hope readers will add them in the comments.

… To my taste, the best in the App Store is Mission St. Clare by Sound Marketing, LLC. This provides complete services of Morning and Evening Prayer (Rite II) in both English and Spanish for yesterday, today, and tomorrow. There are few decisions to make. All that is needed is to click on one of the four main buttons and the chosen service appears ready to be prayed from top to bottom, with all the propers in their proper places.

Read the rest.
