Here are all the features of the Universalis range. Most are available once you have a registration code. A few of them require an in-app purchase or subscription: these are clearly marked.
Here is how to use a Universalis registration code.
Everything listed here is available for any date, past, present or future. | ||
Liturgical calendar | All Sundays, solemnities, feasts and memorials. In most parts of the world these will include celebrations particular to your own national or diocesan calendar. | |
About Today | Short biographies or reflections on the saints who are being celebrated today around the world, often with illustrations. | |
Order of Mass | The basic Order of Mass, either in a single language or bilingual (for instance, English plus Latin). | |
Readings at Mass | Today’s Mass readings together with the prayers and antiphons. In English and some other languages. If you want, you can see Latin in parallel with the English readings and psalm (also Greek in parallel with English, but for the New Testament readings only). You can optionally add a commentary on each reading by Dom Henry Wansbrough ISB, editor of the Revised New Jerusalem Bible. |
Danish is also available, on iPhone/iPad and Android, as an optional add-on. Spoken English of the readings is optionally available on monthly subscription, so that you can listen as well as reading. iPhone/iPad and Android only. |
Mass Today | The complete Mass, from beginning to end, including both the fixed and the variable parts for each day. | |
Office of Readings Lauds Terce Vespers |
The whole Liturgy of the Hours for each day, in English, Latin, Danish, and some other languages. | Spoken English of the Liturgy of the Hours is optionally available on monthly subscription, so that you can listen as well as reading. iPhone/iPad and Android only. |
Compline |
Sung Latin Compline of Sundays is available as an in-app purchase. iPhone/iPad and Android only. | |
Spiritual Reading | The patristic Second Readings in the Office of Readings are a rich and valuable resource, but the Office of Readings itself only has one Second Reading, the one for the saint or feast you have decided to celebrate. The Spiritual Reading page gives you all the possible Second Readings for today, greatly widening and enriching your reading. |
|
The Rosary | The Rosary, in weekly cycles both with and without the Luminous Mysteries. Each mystery has an illustration and every Hail Mary in every Mystery is accompanied by a suitable verse of Scripture. A recording of a live recitation of the Rosary by the Downside community is available for you to listen to, free of charge: iPhone/iPad and Android only. |
|
Remembrance Cards | iPhone and iPad only. Mark down the dates of death of your friends or family or people you want to pray for. You can include an illustration and a short biography if you want. The main Universalis pages will show you reminders on the day of each anniversary, and (on Saturdays and Sundays) reminders for the week to come. | |
Daily Books | Important spiritual classics (including the hard-to-find “Resurrection Is Now” by Dom Aelred Watkin). These are divided into easy units for daily reading, and you can add them to any of the main Universalis pages. Most of these books are free. A few are not, and those are available as in-app purchases on iPhone/iPad and Android only. | |
Podcast | About Today and some other pages will remind you when a new episode of the Universalis podcast is ready for listening. | |
Daily emails | You can tell us to send the Mass readings or any of the Hours to you by email each day. | |
e-books | For e-book readers such as Amazon Kindle or Kobo, you can create a Universalis e-book covering selected pages for a given period (usually a month). You can do this from a web page on our site, or if you have Universalis on your Mac or Windows computer, you can do it directly. |
