Had this app for years but now my prayers get interrupted with commercials. ### 5/5 — Awesome Prayer App *2025-09-23, version 5.13* I keep coming back to this app and finding new prayers that draw me closer to God. What a wonderful gift to have stumbled upon it. ### 5/5 — Great job *2025-09-18, version 5.13* Great traditional prayers that all Catholics should be praying everyday. Please try incorporate different traditional Catholic prayers. Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — I miss the paintings *2025-09-07, version 5.13* I love this app but miss the beautiful paintings. Now there are drawings and cartoons. ### 5/5 — Devine Plan *2025-08-11, version 5.13* Great efforts and support everyday life to be in God’s plan. Whether we are aware of His sacred scriptures or sacred traditions of our forefathers, it is shortcut… ### 5/5 — Great. *2025-07-11, version 5.11* Great resource. ❤️ ### 5/5 — The start of my day *2025-06-12, version 5.11* I am lost if I don’t do this app everyday 🙏 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads on this app were inappropriate *2026-04-11, version 26.04.08* As soon as I opened the app to use it, provocative ads appeared at the bottom of the screen. No thanks. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-03-22, version 6.0.0* While the concept is good, the excessive amount of advertising makes it hard to enjoy. Unfortunately, it ends up being a disappointing experience, so I wouldn’t recommend it. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-01-23, version 6.0.0* This used to be a good app until the creators became so greedy that it freezes up from the intrusive and inappropriate ads ### 1/5 — Blasphemous *2026-01-05, version 6.0.0* Putting advertising in sacred text is blasphemous and shameful. The word of god should be spread without expecting compensation. Shameful. ### 1/5 — Tomi *2025-11-01, version 5.14* I have deleted the Prarthana app from my phone because advertisements kept popping up unexpectedly at a very loud volume. This happened several times during church services and prayer meetings. I understand that ads may be necessary, but sudden video and audio ads with such high volume are unacceptable. I will not recommend this app to anyone. ### 1/5 — New Update ruined the app for me completely *2025-08-08, version 5.13* The ads are very distracting. Especially when inappropriate ones are being shown😭💀 ### 1/5 — Pop up adds *2024-10-03, version 5.8* Unable to use the app because of their pop up adds ### 1/5 — Prayers *2024-08-08, version 5.8* This is very beneficial to me. Because every day I used to read as I waked up and before going to bed. And when travelling because it’s in my phone. This is amazing and so inspiring to read. ### 1/5 — Not a Catholic prayer by Catholic *2024-07-25, version 5.8* When I open app I get messages like my phone needs installing battery low etc and the original Catholic apps like Hallow or others I have , they never have that type of messages . ### 1/5 — Can’t get past the ads. *2023-12-19, version 5.6* After a while ads start popping up every 5 seconds. This app is not good. Try Laudate and Amen from the Augustine institute ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-07-31, version 26.04.08* Great resource for prayer, rosary and daily reflection ### 5/5 — Daily practice *2026-07-05, version 26.04.08* Love it, use app every day ### 5/5 — LOVE LOVE IT!!!! *2026-06-26, version 26.04.08* This App has all my favorite prayers for my every day life!!
