The Explained Mass guides you to understand and experience the Catholic liturgy, moment by moment.

Explore each part of the Holy Mass—Introductory Rites, Liturgy of the Word, Liturgy of the Eucharist, Rite of Communion, and Concluding Rites—with clear explanations of their meaning and origin.

GLOSSARY AND DOCUMENTS
An integrated liturgical glossary and direct citations to Magisterial documents (such as the General Instruction of the Roman Missal) for deeper study without leaving the app.

HIGHLIGHT AND TAKE NOTES
Mark the passages that interest you most and add your own notes, just like in a textbook.

LITURGY OF THE HOURS
Pray the seven hours of the Divine Office—Office of Readings, Morning Prayer, Terce, Sext, None, Vespers, and Compline—with the complete texts for the day.

GOSPEL AND SAINTS OF THE DAY
Consult the day's readings and the saint the Church celebrates, with the liturgical calendar adjusted for your country.

HOME SCREEN WIDGET
Add the "Today" widget to your home screen and always have the Gospel reading of the day and the liturgical celebration in view, with direct access to the full readings with a single tap.

REMINDERS
Turn on notifications so you don't miss the Liturgy of the Hours or the Gospel each day.

Whether you are beginning your faith journey or seeking to deepen your liturgical knowledge, The Mass Explained is your daily companion for experiencing Mass with greater understanding and devotion.
