Universalis is a missal and a breviary, and more besides. It gives you the Liturgy of the Hours (Divine Office) and the Mass for every day; plus valuable additional material.
The Catholic Calendar app lets you join in with the tens of thousands of people who use Universalis daily, through a free app plus a small monthly subscription of roughly $0.99 / £0.79 / €0.99 (the App Store will tell you the exact figure). If you prefer a single purchase instead of a monthly subscription, get the Universalis app instead of the Catholic Calendar app.

Catholic Calendar App Comments & Reviews
Catholic Calendar Positive Reviews
Relative newbieI am a protestant. He is looking for a way to deepen my Prayer life. This app seems to be the one to do that. It is a nice app, and I appreciate the free trial. I also appreciate that it accessible to the blind. I know that after the free trial, I am probably going to have to delete the app. I simply cannot afford a subscription or one time purchase. i’m blind disabled, and I can’t afford that kind of money. I’m on a fixed income, and after rent and bills. There’s nothing left for subscriptions of this kind. Or, even one time purchases of apps. It would be nice if there was a free version of this app somehow. Would use it daily if there was. Keep up the good work, and God is proud of you..Version: 3.119
Church Calendar App, G-O-A-T!In less than 10 days, the Church Calendar app has opened the doors for me to daily praying the DivineOffice/Liturgy of the Hours (DO/LH). Highlights for me (a non-techy) include: Seamless integration between Functions and Features Intuitive Use And best of all - the app has made praying the DO/LH a daily reality rather than a spiritual goal I aspire to. If you ever wanted to pray throughout the day with and as the Church prays, take the Church Calendar up on its 30 day free trial run (no gimmicks). Your personal prayer life will be rocked!.Version: 3.108
The bestI have been using this app for around 10 years. I use it every morning to look at the saint of the day and the mass readings I find the commentary for the mass readings to be most helpful. Recently I have begun listening to the weekly podcast which comments on the liturgy of the hours and the lives of the various Saints. I can't imagine how my life would be without the inspiration and instruction I gain from using this app..Version: 3.128
THE app for bringing your prayer life to a deeper level!I have used this app (full version) for years and just when they add features to make our prayer life more rich, they come up with something to enhance it even more! Thank you to the developers for giving the Body of Christ such a wonderful gift to allow us to “remain in Christ” through the liturgy and other rich avenues of prayer. Highly recommended..Version: 2.89
Daily Catholic PrayersI originally bought the liturgy of the hours in book form and loved the little books !!! But my devotion waned as my life became complex, and when I tried to return to them, I couldn’t re-master the flipping back and forth and was never sure I was reading the right sections…. THIS! puts it all together, offers hymn and format choices, and helps me as I try to become more faithful in prayer. I love it !!!.Version: 3.93
Very pleasedThis splendid app is being improved quite regularly. As a priest I celebrate the Divine Office daily and rely on Universalis when traveling or not in my chapel. I find the new addition of the spoken gospel to be good for preparing a sermon or meditating. The extended readings to give the daily gospel its context is another excellent addition. I do wish we had more hymn choice but I know this is difficult to procure between copyrights and fees..Version: 2.92
The App to better yourself.This app I truly enjoy, this app is a helper to prepare a person to mass or to guide someone in the liturgy of the hours, not only that, the calendar is specific and shows you the importance of that day. It has the masses readings, order of mass, and mass today, which is an entire mass. This app has helped me a lot and I'm sure it can help you too..Version: 2.56
So much great info!I have been using this app for about a year. I keep finding more to love about it. For example, I didn’t bother looking at the Rosary for months. When I did finally look at it I found it was a scriptural rosary! I mostly use it for the liturgy is the hours and daily mass readings..Version: 3.122
This app leads me into a wonderfully prayerful experience every dayAwesome functionality - clear instructions - deeply theological - more “full gospel” than anything else I have ever read (which is extensive) as a lifelong (and still) protestant - better lessons in church than I ever received anywhere, including SBTSeminary..Version: 3.91
Notification Bells TAKE OVER MY iPhone!!!Every time I swipe up the loud BELL TOWER bells from liturgy of the hours DING as LOUD as my PHONE volume will go!!! Even if my volume and ringer, and notifications volume is on minimum/low!! It’s like a hostile take over over Church bells. What worse. If the liturgy of the hours was at Noon and I unlock my phone or swipe up at 12:30pm....GONG!!!! How do I suppress this? I like the liturgy of the hours notification, but it suddenly taking over the phones Notification volume and ringing MAXIMUM volume is horrible. Please fix in your next update. My kids are starting to say my phone is possessed. Thanks!.Version: 3.63
BlessingsI’m grateful for this wonderful app. It helps keep me focused and disciplined in my daily life. Everything necessary for prayer and spiritual growth is available within it and the app is easy to utilize. The brief weekly forecast helps keep one alert to the week ahead..Version: 3.142
Faithful FruendThis app has accompanied me for more than seven years through the US and Canada. We begin and end the day together mindful of the many who are doing the same and different yet the ever same unmeasurable time throughout the world..Version: 3.89
Copy & PasteNobody asked me but I prefer the previous way to copy and paste; before your last update. It was easier to copy certain sections. I can’t do that anymore. Thanks for listening..Version: 3.80
Saint ValentineI love the app and use it to mark my calendar hanging up in my room. But I have one issue with February 14th which does not list Saint Valentine that day although it is his feast day. If you could fix this that would be great!.Version: 3.161
Great AppI love this app! It is so well designed & easy to navigate! Every night I read the night prayer & sometimes I listen to the spoken version on the app. It has deepened my connection with Jesus. Highly recommend!.Version: 3.110
Excellent AppRC Calendar, AKA Catholic Calendar or Universalis, is the best ‘all in one’ app that I’ve found! It contains all of the daily prayers and readings for the Divine Office as well as Mass and also has reflections, Lectio Divina and rosary. I have multiple app’s for all of these but RC Calendar does them all in one place and is excellent!.Version: 3.30
Fantastic app!This app has been a pillar of my daily prayer because praying the Liturgy of the Hours fulfills my desire to connect to the other members of the Catholic Church through universal prayer..Version: 3.143
Great resourceThis is a fulfillimg resource to be used with the LOH/DO/Breviary App. When used together, it makes the opportunity of LOH prayer far more focused and undistracted than the bound 1 or 4 volume readings... even though the prayers are the same..Version: 3.28
Thank you!!Can’t think of one negative thing to say beautifully put together!!.Version: 3.120
More than worth every penny!The app allows me to keep up with the LOTH when I’m on the go. The Grail adds a nice counterpoint also..Version: 3.91
Thank youFor including the daily mass in this app, it is so welcomed. Please don’t stop teaching us about the saints thank you Maureen.Version: 3.110
A blessingThis app is great for every day. Having the readings and hours close at hand makes it easier to escape from the troubles of the day and follow the Lord's good workings..Version: 2.82
Recent update has broken apAs a parish sacristan, this app is a must have for me, but the most recent update causes the app to crash upon launching. I have an iPhone XR running iOS 13.7. Please fix this soon!.Version: 3.55
Stop pestering me for a reviewWhen I am following the Mass readings in the app, repeated requests (3 today alone) does not help the purpose of the app. ☹️.Version: 3.124
Best app for daily prayer!I am so happy I found this app! I love it! I use it for daily liturgical calendar, praying the divine office and for reflecting on the daily readings!.Version: 3.153
Love it!This app provides so much for anyone trying to grow in their prayer life and understanding of the Church, especially for Mass preparation!.Version: 3.149
Pray the divine officeI find this a fantastic way to pray daily. The flexibility of the app allows me to fit it into my daily life easily..Version: 3.160
Memorial DatesHow come I can’t add dates anymore? The ‘ADD’ doesn’t highlight anymore, only the ‘Delete’ highlights???.Version: 3.110
Love this appUsed a part of my daily devotions. A true blessing. Thank you.Version: 3.138

Something is wrongCrashes on iPhone 6 with IOS 12 ;(.Version: 3.55
Must haveAn excellent resource for any Catholic who wants to pray with the Church..Version: 3.120
StanleyI love this app brings me closer to my Lord Jesus Christ.Version: 3.30
Beautiful appVery nice. Well organized. Easy to use. Night screen. Excellent all around..Version: 3.163
Keeps me Informed and Organized!I love this app! I check it daily…I put the app beside my calendar app in my iPhone so I remember to click into both each morning to see what the day beholds. I like that it lists the liturgical colour at the top of the page each day, so I can find it in a hurry while I dress for mass (I’m one of those ADHD “time-blind” people who are always running late and rushing). The books available through the app are incredible! I especially love how you can set it to remind you to read a portion each day…I thrive on this sort of structure, so it keeps me on track to tackle my reading in manageable “bite-size” pieces..Version: 3.158
Clear conscienceThe intermittent commentary is extraordinary and much appreciated. The italics create a distance sufficient to not violate the order of the Mass..Version: 3.128
The only Hours app worth consideringUnless you consider the paid version - I bought it and haven't regreted it..Version: 0
Great AppWorks well. Good Catholic Calendar app as described..Version: 2.10
AmazingReally great app. I use it for daily Mass. I love I don't have to jump from one place to another, everything is organized for you so you can easily follow the Mass. You may also choose the country or type of Missal you want. It's simply great! Everything my friends and I have been looking for..Version: 1.87
JAwesome!.Version: 1.79
Great appDoes what what it says very well. You dont need internet connection for this. God bless!!.Version: 0
HappyNow I have the daily Mass scriptures reading at my fingertips! Pls add an audio/visual rosary..Version: 1.76
Love It - Thanks!I didn't expect this to be so complete. Works well but I'll probably buy the paid version just so I don't need to rely on an internet connection. Bravo!.Version: 0
Fantastic!!We need more Catholic apps like this!.Version: 0
HandyIt is well done. It could have also included the pre-Vatican Council II Roman Calendar of Saints. But overall, this app is a great idea..Version: 0
