    I know but when I looked it up in the App Store, it said that it was only for ipod/iphone.

    Wow it's awesome! Good job :D

    I noticed that you can highlight the Coptic text - I tried to copy/paste it but it ended up just as English letters in any other app. I was just wondering, since you figured out how to put Coptic text on the iPhone, is an app that lets you type in Coptic possible? If you could, that would open up some big opportunities for language revival.

    God bless :)

    Completely agree with ebshois_nai_nan... but my pestering question would be: would any of those apps work with android phone, like HTC? Please let me know as soon as possible. I hope you give me the desired answer (having an HTC desire phone :-))

    To answer some of the posed questions

    The application should work on the iPad, although it was not designed for it like any other iPhone/iPod application.

    As for typing in Coptic, that could be done but within an app that has the font embedded (like iAlhan), but to share the text, apple will need to add the coptic as an alternative language under internationalization settings.

    In terms of android support, I am looking into that.

    Pray for me

    Thanks a lot... God Bless all your efforts... is there a section for normal annual Alhan or psalmody?
  • arsaniarsani
    Not at the moment, but this could be added easily, just takes a whole lot of time recording :-)
    Once it's recorded it could get added and you should get the updates automatically once you start the app without the need for an upgrade.
    God willing we are thinking to start with adding psalm, psalm response, as well as psalm 150 for Advent, after which we need to add Resurrection and Pentecost.
    The next step is annual hymns, then we will take Tasbeha one section at a time starting with Sat and Sun.

    Please pray for me

    I don't know if you have connections with the makers of iCoptic but if you do, you need to seriously tell them that their update was horrible. And that it's not worth $9.99, the old version was so much better. Thanks in advance. Also, sorry about the off-topic comment, and btw Good job on ur update. May God bless.
