Curious of the status of the LOTH for the Roman Rite. I see it is still in production. I don't miss what I don't have but it is supposed to be part of my library.
Thanks,
KSC

I seem to recall that it was supposed to be ready a couple of weeks after Verbum 9 was released

Donald Antenen (Faithlife):It's not shipping immediately at launch as we put the finishing touches on it, but I'm excited to announce that the English edition of the Liturgy of the Hours is available for American customers in Verbum 9 Gold and above.

Copy that...but Donald's comments were October 26, 2020. We are now at the end of March 2021.
Is it coming soon? Delays? What is the status?
We've been testing and fixing things with a group of beta testers, and we're getting close. But this is such an important resource that we want to make sure we release something good.
Donald,
Thank you. And yes, it is an important resource, so I thank you for the diligence and hard work of all. I look forward to it being added to my library.
Thank you also for the work you do for Verbum. It is fantastic.
I see the loth is now downloaded, but I dont see how to open and use it yet.
It opened for me to today's date
Does Not have readings for every day?
today: May 12 NEREUS AND ACHILLEUS, MARTYRS

On the same day, May 12 PANCRAS, MARTYR
May 14 MATTHIAS, APOSTLE
May 18 JOHN I, POPE AND MARTYR
yea it brought up wed but i dont see how to open up the proper psalms etc
Check table of contents. To get all of the needed readings we may need to "jump around" in the book.
[[Or in other words I don't know how to use it either. Somebody will teach us!]]

This post over at the Verbum Blog from a couple of weeks back indicated something like a "how-to" guide would be forthcoming:
If such musings have convinced you to give it a go (and I hope they have!), then stay tuned for a follow-up post in which I will walk you through how to study the Liturgy of the Hours using the Verbum app.
Until then, we have to await the arrival of our own Philip: "Do you understand how to use LOTH in Verbum?"
"How can I, unless someone guides me?"
Where are you finding this? I haven’t seen it for my tablet. Is it currently only for the desktop?

Typically when resources are released, there is a day or so lag before they hit mobile. My guess is that is what is going on in this instance...

That’s true, I had forgotten that happened with the Catholic Encyclopedia.
David Ames:Does Not have readings for every day?
Spoiler Alert:
Yes, LotH does. You're looking in the section that only has readings for feast days. Since not every day is a feast day, that section doesn't have readings for every day.

It was what came up. Waiting for the training manual. [[Did look and saw that there are lots of 'sections']] [thanks for the advise]

In the meantime, if you are clicking around the LOTH resource in Verbum and wanting a better feel for what the various components are, there are a number of helpful overviews of praying the divine office on youtube, including this fairly simple presentation from Fr. Cassidy Stinson ("the Happy Priest").
Glad to have this resource available finally in Verbum (and eager for the Liturgia Horarum to make it into production).
We have a blog post going up about using Liturgy of the Hours in Verbum and more training materials in the works.
It's now released if you purchased a base package that includes it. If you preordered Liturgy of the Hours by itself, the release date will be later this month.
