Venite app Reviews

This application is very good, except for one bug (?) I hadn’t noticed before: no matter what Psalter you choose in settings, the text displayed is apparently that of the “Inclusive Psalter”, which really does change around and play with the language a bit, as compared to the original. The 1979 BCP or Coverdale 1662 Psalter would not show up, despite me repeatedly selecting those in settings. I believe this (apparent inability to display other than the “Inclusive Psalter”) must be an unintended bug. Veniteapp is otherwise excellent and very well done, functionally and aesthetically. Until this Psalter issue is fixed though, I expect I’ll be going back to the books or use some other electronic/online resource.

I’ve really enjoyed using it and it is by far the most streamlined, beautiful, convenient and customizable Common Prayer phone application I have found. My one complaint is that I can’t figure out how to add collects. The Prayers and thanksgivings are no problem, but I can’t find a list on Veniteapp from which to select the desired collects during the offices. I’m used to using the 1928 BCP which uses the Collect for Peace with the office and, as of yet, I can’t figure out how to add it to Rite I. If this is resolved, Veniteapp will be basically perfect!

The Collect for Peace is inaccurately labeled as the Collect Again Perils.

There should be setting for a default choice for the version of the Lord’s Prayer.

I really like what Veniteapp has to offer. Unfortunately, when I try to create a bulletin, I make my choices, and after that, the screen goes blank and doesn’t create a bulletin. Veniteapp also hangs when I tried the contact us for support action.

It’s a great app, when it works. Recently it seems I’m getting more “loading” messages with no text showing up. Or other similar errors.

This is the best Daily Office app I’ve found!

All the others are trash. Download this one!

Wonderful Daily Office app for the Episcopal/Anglican tradition. Highlights include beautiful, minimal design in line with the BCP, options, but not decision overload. Can’t wait to put Veniteapp version to use!

My app has a problem getting the date and the readings right.

If you want the 1979 Episcopal Book of Common Prayer. The other apps follow the 2019 Anglican BCP which is on a different schedule for its lectionary. Plus Veniteapp has amazing customization!

If you are interested in the read aloud feature, then skip down to Moira (Irish) in the settings. None of the American accents sound terribly natural. The whisper isn’t disappointing in American accent considering this is prayer.

It only took moments to realize this is my go to for praying the Office with my phone or on my desktop. The bulletin feature has made it very functional for teleconferenced prayer as well.

Veniteapp is exactly what I’ve been looking for! If you’re looking for a beautiful app that allows you to pray the daily office, this is it.

First of all, Veniteapp is beautiful: the font choice is perfect and the images on each daily prayer are a really nice touch.

The built in meditation timer is a great idea, and I love the preset daily office reminders. These are both small but really helpful touches.

Thank you for making this free to download and use. I appreciate the developer keeping things simple, elegant and functional.

I have been using Venite for over a year now to create bulletins for live-streamed morning prayer on weekdays. This new version is feature-rich and allows you to easily share the bulletin with attendees. This is a labor of love, and it shows in every aspect.

I can’t believe how well built Veniteapp is. No gimmicks; just incredibly helpful customization options at every step, wrapped in a tasteful design that gets out of the way. One of the very few genuinely great religious apps!

This is the most beautiful, functional, dependable and customizable app for the Book of Common Prayer (1979) that I’ve come across — and I’ve seen almost all of them. So many devotional options and a login that retains your particular preferences day in and out. Highly recommend.

Down to the fonts, I really appreciate how this is put together, how customizable it is, and how close to my book-based practice it is.

My church uses Veniteapp for our online offices, and it works extremely well, particularly for those who may be unfamiliar with the office. It is also great that you can choose psalter cycles and opt in and out of Holy Day lectionaries. Super helpful.

I don’t know if you can access the Great Litany as its own liturgy, but I would love to have that feature. I think I saw settings for it but have been unable to select it for prayer.

I highly recommend Veniteapp for anyone interested in daily prayer in the Anglican/Episcopal tradition.

I’ve been using Veniteapp for a few months, and I’m incredibly impressed with how seamlessly it makes praying the various Offices. From Morning Prayer to Noonday Prayer, Vespers to Compline, all the assigned daily Psalms and the seasonal Invitatory are all included and take the guess work out of figuring out which prayers to recite. There’s also ways to personalize it to make it truly your own! Highly recommend Veniteapp. 10/10.

Our weekly prayer group has been using Veniteapp for several months now. We take turns leading the service, and I’ve noticed that now even the most reticent volunteer enthusiastically since Veniteapp creates a bulletin to be easily followed. Our deacon raves about it. We are very impressed with its features. I highly recommend Veniteapp if you’d like to spend more time praying. I love the addition of the BCP page numbers.

Veniteapp is a gift! I’m grateful.
