Now that the writing is on the wall, and we know the Revised Grail Psalms will eventually appear in the breviary, has any movement been detected in that direction? I can understand the book publishers would be reluctant to make their current stock obsolete by publishing new breviaries with the Revised Grail Psalms, but what about the several digital breviary apps out there? Have any of those switched their Divine Office / Liturgy of the Hours to the Revised Grail Psalms yet, or at least given the option for users to switch?
 
As the revised grail psalms have not been approved for liturgical use in the divine office you will find them in breviary apps anytime soon.

Sorry that should read: As the revised grail psalms have not been approved for liturgical use in the divine office you will not find them in breviary apps anytime soon.
 
I’m sorry I thought it was still awaiting recognitio from the CDW, but I see that this has already recieved it. In that case as more of the episcopal conferences begin to approve its use in their respective jurisdictions we will start seeing it in the apps but thus far I haven’t come across it.

Not quite…it’s actually the same situation as the Mass. They approved for liturgical usage, but they are not in any of the books yet, and will not be until the books are revised. Note that revision is quite different from a reprint. A reprint is the same book printed again, with the only changes being typo corrections. A revision is when the entire book is remade, and is a big deal. The only way to add content is through a revision, but we all know how long it took to get the next revision of the missal…

However, if you want to use the revised grail psalms now, you may use them licitly (for example, if everyone present will be using a custom made worship aid). Like someone mentioned, it is already in use in Africa.
