I’ve been vacationing in Alpena, Michigan. I return today. Regular posting will hopefully resume tomorrow morning.
Ever since getting my iPhone, I’ve been looking for Catholic devotional applications. I haven’t had much luck, so I created my own.
If you own an iPhone, it’s simple to do: You cut-and-paste prayers and meditations into an email message to your iPhone email address. You then cut-and-paste the body of the email into the “Notes” application (one of the handful of applications that, I believe, automatically comes with every new iPhone). Hit “Done. Now the material is always at your fingertips. I keep Eucharistic prayers and various religious quotes there. It has worked out well.
If you want an assortment of prayers and meditations, let me know. I’ll send them to you. Email link on the left. Many of the meditations are simply taken from previous “Something for Sunday Morning” posts.
I like iBreviary and iPieta, both great apps for iphone. iBreviary updates daily with all the hours (same as my 4 volume set) and the Mass readings for the day. All come in various languages including Latin. iPieta has the entire Bible, the liturgical calendar, hundreds of prayers including litanies, novenas and chaplets, lives of the saints, the Roman catechism, the Baltimore catechism, books like Imitation of Christ, Intro to the Devout Life, etc, the Summa Theological I, II, III; and more. Some of it is written and audio. Scripture and some prayers can be viewed in dual display mode: both English and Latin, or one or the other. It’s $2.99!
$2.99 for all that?!?! I’m downloading it as I type this. Thanks for the tip.
