Simple Angelus
Traditional Catholic Devotion
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Simple Angelus is a faithful digital companion for the traditional Catholic devotion of the Angelus. It rings the bell at the three canonical hours — morning, noon, and evening — and presents the prayers of the Church simply and beautifully.
The app follows the pre-1955 traditional Roman calendar. The Regina Caeli replaces the Angelus from Easter Sunday through the Saturday before Trinity Sunday, as the Church has always done. Prayer postures observe Benedict XIV's 1742 decree: kneeling on weekdays, standing during Paschaltide and on Sundays.
Prayers are offered in English, Spanish, French, and the Latin of the Roman Missal. Notifications include excerpts from the Alma Redemptoris Mater or the Regina Caeli — automatically swapped according to the season — at gentle volume.
Simple Angelus asks nothing of you except that you pause and pray. It contains no advertisements, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no donation prompts, and no accounts. It collects no data. It is offered freely as a service to the Church.
"The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary, and she conceived of the Holy Ghost…"
Ratings & Reviews
- This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- A new Sound Delay setting lets the reminder wait a few seconds past the hour, so another app's notification doesn't cut the chant short.
- The home-screen and lock-screen widgets are redrawn, and now rest quietly once you've prayed all three hours.
- Wide-ranging accessibility improvements throughout, for VoiceOver and larger text sizes.
- Clearer prayer section headings and small polish across the app.
