What's New in Damascus

2.0

August 2, 2026

Damascus 2.0 is the biggest update we've shipped. Prayer got a front door, the home screen got rebuilt around your day, and a lot of small annoyances quietly disappeared. The Prayer Dare - A guided daily prayer that takes you from "I should pray" to actually praying, in about five minutes. Scripture, a moment of quiet, and a reflection you can keep. A Brand-New Home - Your day at a glance: the dare, the nightly examen, today's saint, your streak, and your routine — all on one screen that finally knows what time it is. The Nightly Examen - Five minutes to look back before you sleep. Finish it and your day is claimed, with no extra taps. A Library of Novenas - Browse what's coming, subscribe to the ones you want, and get a nudge when day one arrives. Miss a day and you can catch up rather than start over. Saints, Full Screen - Today's saint, told properly, with art that fills the screen instead of hiding in a thumbnail. A Routine That Fits You - Build your daily routine out of the pieces you actually use — readings, rosary, silent prayer, reflection — and check them off as you go. Make It Your Own - Themes, accents, and reading styles that carry across the app, your widgets, and your watch. New liturgical colour options follow the season, in the vestment tones you'd actually see at Mass. Made for iPad - Home and More now run in two columns on iPad, so the extra room is doing something useful. Notifications, Front and Center - One place for everything the app wants to tell you, and a mailbox you can clear in a single tap. Keeping Your Streak Honest - Streak freezes for the days life gets in the way, and more than one way to claim a day when the timer isn't the right fit. Polish & Fixes - A much smoother Bible reader, faster cold starts, better offline behaviour, sharper widgets, and a long list of small fixes you'll never notice — which is rather the point.

Nice

I’ve gone 5 years to the summer retreat. Awesome that they have this new app. Cool new features, a LOT of content. For some reason st pio of pietrelcina isn’t on their saint data base. But one big problem: very buggy. Now it is a new app probably on beta but easy fixes is what it seems. Because it basically has every single Catholic Church document, it’s a hefty app. Ones I try to start open for say something from jp2 it goes haywire because it thinks it needs to load everything in the app to use one document. Like this is the hottest my phone has ever been. The screen kinda hurts.

Highlighting 🫩🫩

The app is amazing, no doubt. It really helps me pray. The only thing that was kinda upsetting is that the highlighting is all wonky. You’ll highlight one sentence, and it highlights the line underneath. Aside from that, I would totally recommend it!

Response from developer

We fixed this in version 2.0. Give it an update and check it out!

Five stars

This is a great app. This has helped me grow in faith. Usually after camp I stop praying but this helped me continue. The app gives you a motivation of points too. I love this app and will continue using it. I love how you can add friends. Thank you Damascus. But I want to be able to add the novena I am prayer to Home Screen to help and send notifications to me. It will not let me add it to my Home Screen .

So amazing

It makes daily prayer so easy! And you get to pray alongside hundreds of other people who help keep you accountable by reminding you to pray. I love Damascus so much and this app is incredible ❤️ the only thing that disappointed me, is that all of my friends with androids cant get it :(

Colors

This app is awesome! My prayer life became way better.

But a few weeks ago, I went on to keep up with up my prayer streak and it said that I was red. But I never selected a team because I have never been to Damascus summer camp yet. Then I accidentally changed it to yellow.
I told my brothers that it changed it to red for me and they said, that might be what ur color will be and that’s the best surprise!
So does any one know how to not have a color?
