[Dr. Sivana]

So, what could be the problem with using an electronic breviary? The problem is the loss of the “sacred.”

I had considered that, and thought there might be a niche market for a dedicated device that would be single use: only hold sacred texts. Possibly in multiple languages, and resizable for the visually impaired, and it would open up like a book, but also maintain the order of reading, perhaps using an internal clock. No browser. No ads. No user storage. No updates. No noise making of any kind. Just Office, Scripture, prayers, hymns, etc. It would be bound in black leather or buckram, activated by opening. Long battery life if using a Kindle style screen.

There’s an app for iPad and iPhone named iMass that has the readings in Latin and English for the 1962 missal and also the old Office (breviary readings), also in Latin and English. It follows the old calendar, of course, which was changed by Vatican II.

I read the Hours of Lauds and Compline every day. I think the old structure was infinitely superior to the abbreviated current form. So this is an option for those who like the Traditional Rite.
