My pastor showed me the OPC psalter app on his phone, but I didn't have time to press him on it. Who here has used it and what do you think?

I am also waiting for the Android version, but here is a (biased) review from Brian Lee. https://www.christreformeddc.org/articles-and-blogs/25-reasons-to-buy-the-trinity-psalter-hymnal-appMy pastor showed me the OPC psalter app on his phone, but I didn't have time to press him on it.

Sounds great! I wish they'd come up with something similar for the plain old Trinity Hymnal.
My impression was both.Does this cover the entire Psalter-Hymnal? Or just the Psalter part (1 - 150)?
It’s not about superior/inferior… it’s about the fact that hundreds of churches have spent many thousands of dollars to purchase Trinity hymnals and thus it would be nice to have an app that would make it easier for what people use at church to likewise be used at home.My guess is that the new OPC Psalter is to gradually replace the red Trinity hymnal. I'm not EP (I'm "dominant" psalmody, if anything) but the inclusion of the Psalter alongside regular hymns makes it superior by definition. That, and the Scripture base in the old Trinity is NIV.

If the Red Trinity is the "old," what are we calling the blue that preceded it (and that is still in use in my home and church?).
We use all three in our house, though the new has somehow been dubbed the "purple" hymnal. We like that it has provided harmonies to hymns given as unison in the red hymnal. I've been curious about the new app.We are calling it much better than the red one. I miss the blue one.
We go by Red Trinity Hymnal, and Trinity Psalter Hymnal (TPH), but the old Blue was too far back for this youngish congregation. I loved the songs in the RTH though, some of which were mysteriously left out in the TPH. But sacrifices had to be made to put all 150 psalms in it, and I couldn't he happier that we are singing the psalms every Lord's Day!If the Red Trinity is the "old," what are we calling the blue that preceded it (and that is still in use in my home and church?).
I was thinking of getting a copy but it looks like a number of editions are out of print.We nonetheless continue to enjoy vigorous sales and much customer satisfaction with all the products (see https://www.trinitypsalterhymnal.org/).

Nathaniel and family greatly appreciated the greetings. I had dinner with them last night with a blessed time of fellowship.Greetings to Nathaniel and family! What a blessing!
When I used the word edition I was referring to the print editions on the Trinity Psalter website -There has been, however, only one edition of the TPH, since its first printing in 2018.
