User Reviews

Users praise the app for its extensive chant library, clean interface, and effective playback for practice, especially given its affordable price. Common downsides are content gaps and calendar/organizational inconsistencies, playback reliability concerns on some devices, and frequent requests for additional materials and features (psalm tones, translations, Divine Office content).
Pros
  • Extensive liturgical chant library (Graduale Romanum and Liber Usualis) with MIDI playback for flexible practice.
  • Clean, intuitive interface that's easy to use and beginner-friendly.
  • Flexible playback controls, including tempo adjustment, starting anywhere, and real-time note highlighting.
  • Excellent value; affordable price relative to the feature set and content.
  • Widely praised as a practical tool for cantors, choirs, and learners.
Cons
  • Content gaps across the liturgical year (missing feasts/propers, Divine Office items) and occasional misalignment with the calendar.
  • Playback quality issues on some devices (inability to play, distortion, limited sound options).
  • Calendar/ordo organization concerns (OF vs EF numbering, Marian antiphons not clearly separated).
  • Requests for additional content and features not yet implemented (psalm tones, translations, more office materials).

Love this app, wondering if it’s possible to include the psalm tones for singing the psalms? I love to sing the liturgy of the hours and would love to have a simple resource for learning the tones. Thank you!
