Minor improvements.

• Improved layout on smaller screens. • Reduced memory usage and improved performance. • Fixed an issue where translations in the Missal and Breviary were not displaying correctly. • Simplified opening the Breviary: it now opens directly to Matins if content has already been downloaded. The app also remembers your place throughout the day, and resets to Matins on the following day. • By popular request, the classic two-column view of the Missal and Breviary from the website has been restored.

Version 7 — What’s New Although the appearance may look familiar, Version 7 is a major update behind the scenes. • New Missal and Breviary system iMass now uses its own servers instead of relying on external sources. This allows faster access, new formatting, adjustable fonts and text size, and the ability to download a full month or year at a time. • Improved iMass Map The map now runs on a new backend system. Users can suggest additions, edits, or removals of Latin Mass locations. All submissions are reviewed before appearing in the app to ensure reliability. • Push notifications We can now send notifications for important announcements, special liturgies, and rare broadcast events. • Modernized app infrastructure Large portions of the app have been completely rebuilt to modern standards, improving stability and performance. • Seven languages added iMass is now available in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Polish. Thank you to everyone who has supported iMass over the years!

Few minor updates.

- Added Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic Church from Springdale AR. Welcome!

- We have made the breviary and missal full screen, with small navigation buttons! - We disabled dark mode for the breviary and missal because it was too difficult to read. - Other code upgrades.

- We have added Chesapeake, VA to our broadcasting locations! Welcome St. Benedict's! - We revised the back end for Guadalajara so that we can broadcast from there more frequently. - Other code updates.

Minor bug fixes

In this time of trial within the Catholic Church, where restrictions are being placed on the Mass of our Catholic Heritage from the highest levels, iMass is doing what it does best: Preserving the Mass and making it available to anyone, anywhere, anytime. To this end: - we have recreated the framework of iMass to receive the broadcasts from many more places through the world. These can be added to indefinitely, rather than being confined to just four locations. We have incorporated what began as the “St Corona Project” during the pandemic, uniting these locations with the others on iMass. - We have added several hundred locations to the iMass Map that had been submitted before the Motu Proprio. When the dust settles we will see which locations need to be updated. - In order to spread the Traditional Mass to the maximum amount of people possible, now on the iMass app will be FREE! And by free, we mean free: there are no in-app purchases, no hidden costs! LiveMass and iMass still spends thousands of dollars in streaming expenses each month. If you would like to donate toward this expense please use the LiveMass website to donate. But from now on, the app is free! - We also updated parts of the software, killed a few bugs and made it ready for the latest iOS.

- Eleven corrections to the Rituale Romanum - Thirteen corrections to Mass locations on the iMass Map - Two hundred and fifty new locations were added to the iMass Map to bring the total location on the map to over 500 locations worldwide! - Version 5 of iMass includes the iMass Map, a worldwide map of Extraordinary Form Mass location approved by the Catholic Church. Each location includes Mass times and driving directions. Users can help us add locations and update information from within the app. - Version 5 also includes the Rituale Romanum, and Dark Mode.

- One correction and one hundred new locations were added to the iMass Map - The app will be updated with certain frequency, based on users sending the iMass team more (or corrected) Mass locations for the iMass Map. - Version 5 of iMass includes the iMass Map, a worldwide map of Extraordinary Form Mass location approved by the Catholic Church. Each location includes Mass times and driving directions. Users can help us add locations and update information from within the app. - Version 5 also includes the Rituale Romanum, and Dark Mode.

It's coming up ten years since iMass was first created. With this milestone, we would like to present you with iMass Version 5, which not only improves, but adds to what iMass even is. Building on the iMass slogan: Mass, anywhere, anytime - Version 5 introduces the iMass Map.  A map of all the Extraordinary Form Mass locations worldwide, so that wherever you find yourself, you will be able to find the closest Latin Mass to attend. We have seeded the iMass Map with over 200 locations to begin, and we invite our users to submit more locations through the app, so that the iMass Map will soon list all the Extraordinary Form Mass locations worldwide, that are approved by the Catholic Church. Selecting on a location in the map will present a bubble with Mass times. Selecting the map icon in the bubble with open Apple Maps and give you driving directions to the church. If there's a Mass location that's not on the map, you can submit it and the iMass team will verify and include it in the next revision of iMass. Version 5 (finally) incorporates the Rituale Romanum with search capabilities so that priests can have the blessings of the Rituale Romanum at their disposal for all impromptu blessing requests. Don't forget to keep your Stole and Holy Water with your iPhone Father! Another small yet big improvement in Version 5 is including a Live Broadcast Calendar instead of the listed generic schedule. The schedule was difficult to read, did not factor in Daylight Saving changes, and couldn't be easily updated. Now, with the Live Broadcast Calendar, all changes in schedule are seamlessly there, special liturgies are there and Daylight Saving is a non-issue. The calendar shows the broadcast times in your local time, so if it says that the next Mass will be broadcasting at 5:30 am, that means 5:30 am on your watch, not somewhere else in the world! Oh, and we updated the app to work with Dark Mode - including specific colors of iMass Text Color, iMass Red and iMass Blue. Needless to say, it's also updated for iOS 13. No bugs were injured in the making of Version 5! Over the past ten years the downloads of the iMass app have interestingly remained the same. Every day more people are discovering iMass, in spite of the "few and far in between" updates. Now with the iMass Map, we hope that all these people discovering iMass will begin to discover the Masses celebrated in the Extraordinary Form that perhaps are quite near to them, yet all the while they had no idea!

MANDATORY UPDATE: While v4.5 looks and acts identical to v4.4.2, critical changes have been made to the code to direct it to the new broadcasting streams. Our older broadcasting servers will be shut down on October 31st. Update to this version of iMass to seamlessly continue to receive the broadcasts on iMass. No bugs were harmed in the making of this version!

Minor modifications to the splash screen and code improvements

Version 4.4.1 may be no different to some people, yet a world of difference to others! Since about half of our viewers are from French speaking countries and another percentage from Spanish speaking countries, version 4.4.1 includes support for French and Spanish! We have also prepared the app for iOS 11. And squashed some bugs.

Mostly a UI update this time. iMass is going retro! - iMass now looks like an old manuscript, but the text works as buttons to navigate to the video streams or the Missal or Breviary. - The broadcast times have been corrected.

It's only been a couple days, but we've added some good stuff! - iPad ready, to replace iMassHD. - Fixed the transitions, made them smoother. - Sound works when system sound is off (this fixes the confusion of "why can't I hear anything?") - Cleaned up some more bloat and tidied up the code a fair bit. No bugs were injured in the making of this version! - And this is big: the broadcasting times are now displayed in the user's local time, so you can know when the next live broadcast will happen!

A much-delayed and awaited version of iMass is finally available! In this version: - Bloat has been removed. - That annoying "please rate the app" dialog has been removed. If you like iMass, rate it! If you don't care for it enough to rate it, then we won't nag you to! - The link to the donate page has been removed. If you would like to donate, please do so on LiveMass.net. We do need donations for streaming expenses and that's also why the app is not free. - The YouTube link has been removed, partly because it slowed the app down. - A new video framework is used to speed things up a bit. - We have included the daily and Sunday Masses from all four broadcasting locations, including our latest broadcasting location: Warrington, England! - Orientation is not confined to landscape. You're free to use the app in whichever direction you wish! - The announcement bar has been repaired so that in-app announcements will actually work.. - And of course iMass has been updated for iOS 11.

iMass 3.0 reinvents iMass. We have redesigned the app from the ground up, and added a multitude of improvement, including: - More Real Estate: taking advantage of the WHOLE screen to give more Missal and more Breviary and full screen video - YouTube Channel: Access the LiveMass.net YouTube Channel directly from iMass - AirPlay: Watch the Mass on your AppleTV - Landscape: We have turned the app around, to have a more enjoyable and usable experience in Landscape - Googlegroup sign up: Sign up for our Googlegroup email list directly from iMass - Scrolling Announcements: Know what is happening next on iMass, with live current announcements scrolled directly to iMass - Prompts: Tips for better usage - New Icon - All New Layout: from the ground up. It's a whole new iMass. - iPhone 5, 4S, 4, 3GS, & 3 compatible: Everything iOS 3.1 and up! If you have iMass, this is like a brand new iMass. If you don't have iMass yet, this is a compelling reason to get it. And if you don't have an iPhone, you're gonna want to get an iPhone just so you can have iMass!

- CRITICAL VERSION UPDATE: This update is linked to our new servers, due to the crash of our previous CDN servers the app will not work without this update. - Also in this update, we have included a no-sleep feature so that the phone will not sleep during audio file playback. - More sermons have been added to the Library of Sermons

This first major upgrade to iMass provides several new features: - There are now two separate streams available for both daily and Sunday Masses, so that if one Content Delivery Network is not functioning, the other should. - LIVE: The Mass can now be viewed live at the times that the Liturgies are happening at Christ the King Church in Florida. - The traditional daily breviary has been added. Pinch to zoom has been added to both the missal and the breviary. - A library of sermons has been added. An internet connection is required to listen to the sermons, so that the files do not take up space on your device.

CRITICAL VERSION UPDATE. This update replaces the links in the file to direct to the new Content Delivery Provider, as the previous company has folded. iMass HD will not stream the Liturgies without this update!

- As well as the Daily Mass Stream, Sunday High Mass can now also be watched all week. - Video Stream now rotates in all directions. - Minor bug fixes.

- Daily Mass Video Stream now in landscape - Now compatible with iOS 3.1 or later - minor bug fixes
