## What is Saint Steps?

Break the cycle. Build virtue. Become free.

Saint Steps is a Catholic formation app designed to help men overcome pornography and rebuild their lives through discipline, truth, and grace. Instead of relying on willpower alone, Saint Steps gives you a structured system that trains your mind, strengthens your habits, and restores control.

Built on the teachings of Thomas Aquinas, the spiritual exercises of Ignatius of Loyola, and modern psychology through a Catholic lens, Saint Steps is designed to reforge your mind, heart, and soul.

Developed for men who are serious about change, Saint Steps combines daily formation, behavioral psychology, and proven spiritual practices to help you break the cycle for good.

What you can do with Saint Steps:

• Follow a structured 6-month formation regimen designed to eliminate relapse and build the virtue of temperance through daily action
• Track your progress with the Grace Streak and build real momentum toward lasting freedom
• Stop urges in real time with the Panic Button, using personalized images, prayers, and reminders
• Begin and end each day with guided meditations, scripture, and formation content
• Reflect daily with a guided examination of conscience to stay aligned and accountable
• Train discipline through intentional fasting, habit tracking and action based habit formation.

Why Saint Steps works:

• Built as a system, not motivation. You don’t need to guess what to do each day
• Combines Catholic truth with proven psychological principles of habit formation
• Designed for daily use, helping you build temperance through consistent action
• Focuses on transformation, not just behavior control

Whether you are trying to quit pornography, regain control of your life, or build real discipline, Saint Steps gives you the structure and direction most men never have.

Start your path to freedom today.

### 1/5 — Hard paywall

*2026-08-20*

Hard paywall with no free trial so you can’t even test the app and see how it works

### 3/5 — Great when it works.

*2026-08-12*

Very helpful and gives a nice faithful message.  Problem is that  on occasion it will get stuck and not open up the evening devotional.  Right now I am on day two of the same morning devotional.  Please fix!

### 5/5 — 5/5

*2026-07-30*

App is wonderfully built with great devotionals, prayers, information on saints and daily challenges that actually help you conquer the flesh. Builds strength with the lord and weakens the passions of the flesh. 100% recommend!

### 2/5 — Misleading Ads

*2026-07-22*

Downloaded this because their ad said they had a stewardship program that could help me start the program they offer. After downloading the app, you can’t access anything after the quiz until you pay. (It also asks you to review the app before you even get to that point, which feels misleading for more reasons than one). I support the cause but that’s a bad experience.

**Developer response:** Hey Ross, we do give the app away for free and have to many users, our stewardship program is outlined on our website (saintsteps.com). Hope you get all the help you need, let me know if you have any other questions at info@saintsteps.com. God bless.

### 5/5 — Fix The Regimen

*2026-06-30*

The app is cool but Im just stuck on day 2 content when I should be on 4 (at the time of me typing this) this happens a lot where the app may crash or have problems like this

### 5/5 — Broken-but ready to fight the good fight for my Soul.

*2026-06-20*

Thank you for this app and that we will all become one with Christ.

### 5/5 — Great app, great people

*2026-06-17*

I am 16 and I really struggle with lust and I need to figure out a way to beat it and I messaged the creators of the app because I recently got into a car wreck and owe over 3000 dollars in insurance, and they were nice enough to let me get it for free. That’s also not to mention how good and helpful the app is, there is so much to do, and it also help you grow in your faith.

### 5/5 — Saint Steps

*2026-05-31*

Very Useful. I’m on Day 1 btw

### 2/5 — No free version

*2026-05-29*

I get the need for financial support but to not offer a free version unless it’s in a spot I don’t see is disappointing most people in today’s economy can’t afford 10 bucks a month on something they have been battling for years or even decades.

**Developer response:** We have a Stewardship program on our site where those who are unable to afford it can gain access for free. Look to saintsteps.com. God bless brother we will be praying for you.

### 5/5 — Pls add this

*2026-05-19*

When I first signed up I already had a little bit of a streak going and I know this ain’t intentional but w ocd it felt like I had to reset when u sign up give an option where u can put in your current streak
