ARGANON PREMIUM
Arganon is free, and every mezmur, download and liturgy stays free for everyone. Some features show a short ad first. Arganon Premium is an optional auto-renewing subscription that only removes those ads; it does not unlock any extra content. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings.
