Named after the ordinated rank of Reader (Anagnostis), this companion app supplies the daily Pauline Epistles, Catholic Epistles, Acts, and Gospels according to the Coptic Katameros, along with liturgical deacon chants.

The Anagnostis app acts as a comprehensive reference guide and educational tool for the Coptic diaconate ranks, particularly the Reader (Anagnostis) and Subdeacon. Preparing readings is a key role in the liturgy, and this application simplifies scripture management.
By packaging the entire yearly Coptic Katameros (which organizes readings according to Coptic calendar dates and liturgical seasons), deacons no longer have to manually search through large printed liturgical volumes. It also contains the complete lives of the saints (Synaxarium) to read right after the Praxis, making preparation seamless, paperless, and accurate.
Designed with features tailored directly for learnable Coptic reading study.
Access readings for any calendar day of the year (Vespers, Matins, Liturgy) calculated instantly offline without network access.
Read deacon responses with Coptic spelling, transliterations, and guide voice prompts to practice in standard chanter modes.
Compare translations side-by-side (e.g., Coptic vs English, or Arabic vs English) to study the theological context during reading.
Full daily database of saints' departures, martyrdoms, and church feast explanations automatically loaded based on the Coptic date.
Bookmark scriptural paragraphs and write notes or highlight text for sermon study or chanter prep.
Includes built-in support and formatting for Coptic characters, resolving display bugs on older mobile operating systems.
