User Reviews

Users praise Coptic Reader for its large, multilingual library and its usefulness in following liturgy, with solid UI and ongoing updates. It’s valued as an essential church tool and is accessible across platforms. Some users, however, report usability challenges and request more customization (highlighting, commentaries, Arabic transliteration) and even the option to revert to an older version.
Pros
  • Huge, organized library of church books and prayers in multiple languages (Coptic, English, Arabic) all in one app.
  • Helps users follow liturgy and participate in services; described as an essential tool for daily worship.
  • Strong UI/UX and continuous updates that improve accuracy and features.
  • Multilingual prayer experience supports learning and engagement across languages during worship.
  • Cross-platform accessibility, including a web version, broadens where it can be used.
Cons
  • Usability issues: some users find the UI confusing or not very friendly and express a wish to revert to the previous version.
  • Feature gaps and customization requests: users want highlighting, more guidance like commentaries, and Arabic transliteration for Coptic.

As an experienced user of the Coptic Reader app since 2015 on various devices and software, I highly recommend adding a search bar at the top of each biblical chapter and hymns. This would allow Sunday school teachers, clergy, and daily readers to easily find any verse that comes to mind, especially during urgent situations, sensitive times at liturgy, and vespers. I was also thinking of offering a selection button that would give beginner Coptic learners the chance to translate Coptic texts into different languages. May God bless the dedicated team that took the time to create this amazing app for all Coptic people around the world! Thank you.

The icons and menu texts became too large. Can’t control the size. Reducing the font size only reduces the font of the text itself, not the menu text. Please revert that last update, it looks terrible
