## What is Saintify?

Saintify is a quiet companion to the saints.

Each day it offers one saint: original artwork, a short life, and an original prayer written in plain, modern language. On a saint's feast day, that saint takes the day. The rest of the year moves gently through the collection.

When you need someone in particular, look by need rather than by name - travel, lost things, toothache, impossible causes - and keep the ones who keep you company.

WHAT'S INSIDE
- Saint of the Day, with home screen and lock screen widgets
- Fifty saints, each with original art, a concise life, and an original prayer
- Search by need or by name, and browse the year by feast day
- Light a candle, with an intention if you have one
- Add cards of your own - a personal patron, a grandparent, someone you remember - with a photo, a story, a prayer, and a day of their own
- Keep favorites, and write a personal prayer for any saint
- Share a saint as a card image
- Ask Siri for the saint of the day

QUIET BY DESIGN
No account. No feed. No advertising. No streaks and nothing to keep up with. Your prayers, candles, and cards stay on your device - Saintify collects nothing and sends nothing anywhere.

Artwork by Gary Amaro. Made with Craig Mieritz, Anna Mieritz, Fiel Valdez, and Kaolin Fire.

### 3/5 — Saints

*2024-09-05*

There are beautiful descriptions of several saints but I was hoping to get a more comprehensive list of daily Saints. The app is missing quite a few like, St. Francis of Assisi Feast Day on Oct. 4. I’d appreciate more saints. I know there are many on each day!

### 4/5 — Great App with background of some of the Saints

*2020-11-28*

Great idea for the App. Love the Patronage part. 

Still needs a lot of content with many more saints. Saint Francis of Assisi (My Saint) is missing. But love the idea !!! Thanks !!!

### 2/5 — Cheesy rhyming poem prayers

*2020-03-29*

The historical information about the saints is very good, but whoever wrote the poems to ask the saints to pray for us seems to make a mockery of the whole idea. They are corny and not sincere in any way. This would be a much better app if the poems were removed. Until then, I won’t use this app.

### 5/5 — Lovely and timely app

*2018-04-01*

Beautiful design, clear, informative stories of the saints, and prayers with contemporary relevance and a sense of humor. We all need more of these things - now more than ever. This is one app I'm always delighted and grateful to recieve a notification from.

### 1/5 — Atrocious, Profane, Anti-Catholic

*2017-08-24*

Imagine my horror when I opened up this putatively Catholic app to check out the feast day of St Rose of Lima. The revered Peruvian lady who was known for her humility and piety is depicted as a bizarre Kim Kardashian type, whose "prayer" opens with this:

O Blessed St Rose,
Each day I pray,
That I choose the right clothes,
And the finest hair spray.

Then it goes on to cite women's fashion mags, like Vogue and Glamour. My jaw dropped, and I am sure I am not alone.

I wonder if the artist, developer, and funders behind this app would do the same for any Muslim religious figure. Methinks, not. Somehow they think Catholicism can bear the brunt of being modernised to the point of profanity. Add my voice to those who demand of Apple to remove this insulting app from the iTunes Store.

### 2/5 — Not particularly Catholic

*2016-12-09*

I am a pretty modern Catholic, but I didn't find anything in this app inspiring. I'm wondering if the artist is not Catholic and simply chose saints randomly as subject matter. Saint Rose of Lima, for example, is depicted as a beautiful, vain woman when the example she sets for us is about letting go of her earthly vanity. It would be an interesting app for non-Catholics who like contemporary illustration.

### 5/5 — Cool App

*2016-04-28, version 1.0.0*

This app is beautiful. Good user interface. Congrats to the developers.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2016-04-22*

Although the it still have iOS design it is still a reliable source and it working app that allows you to share content and religious information and also has a lot of information on here too as well. Works good

### 5/5 — Good app

*2016-03-27*

Easy to share and works on my iPad too

### 5/5 — Where the saints at?

*2016-03-27*

I wish there were more Saints on the app... But for being free, it's great! I would pay for more! Great stories!

Saintify is rewritten from the ground up, and still calm.

- Vigil: the day's saint, counting down to the next feast rather than picking one at random.
- A two-sided card, as the first Saintify had: the painting on the front, the story and prayer on the back. Tap the painting to see it whole.
- Widgets for the home and lock screen.
- Search by what you need - travel, lost things, impossible causes - not only by name.
- Light a candle, with an intention if you have one.
- Add cards of your own: a personal patron, or someone you remember, with a photo, a story, a prayer and a day. They join the list, the calendar and the daily rotation.
- Ask Siri for the saint of the day.
- Now on iPad.

Prayers you wrote in the old Saintify are carried across. Everything stays on your device.
