PrayerFast vs A Catholic App

PrayerFast is the first fasting companion built for every liturgical Christian tradition. Whether you're Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Coptic, Ethiopian, Maronite, Chaldean, Armenian Apostolic, Syriac, or Assyrian — PrayerFast knows your fasting calendar and walks with you through every season of the Church year. DAILY FASTING GUIDANCE Open the app and instantly see today's fasting rule for your tradition. PrayerFast calculates the correct level — strict fast, oil and wine permitted, fish allowed, dairy allowed, feast day, or no fast — based on your specific liturgical calendar. No more guessing, no more searching. Just clear, accurate guidance every morning. FULL LITURGICAL CALENDARS PrayerFast includes complete fasting calendar engines for 11 traditions across 4 major branches of Christianity. Each calendar accurately computes Pascha/Easter, moveable feasts, fixed feasts, weekly fasts, and every fasting period — Great Lent, Nativity Fast, Apostles' Fast, Dormition Fast, and all tradition-specific seasons. Eastern Orthodox users can switch between the New Calendar (Revised Julian) and Old Calendar (Julian) with a single tap. DAILY SCRIPTURE & SAINTS Each day pairs your fasting level with carefully selected Scripture. Weekly quotes from the saints — drawn from your own tradition's spiritual fathers and mothers — offer encouragement and depth throughout every fasting season. FASTING-APPROPRIATE MEAL IDEAS Wondering what to cook during a strict fast? PrayerFast suggests tradition-specific meals matched to today's fasting level. From Greek lentil soup to Coptic koshari, Lebanese mujadara to Ethiopian injera — every recipe respects the rules of your tradition. DAILY REFLECTION JOURNAL Log how your fast went each day. Record your emotional state, track fasting adherence, and write personal reflections. Watch your reflection streak grow as you build a daily spiritual discipline. Look back on your journey through a beautiful timeline of past entries. PRAYER MODE A contemplative, distraction-free interface inspired by newspaper typography. Prayer Mode strips away tabs, stats, and chrome — leaving only today's fast, Scripture, saints, and your reflection. Designed for stillness. HOME SCREEN WIDGET See today's fasting status at a glance without opening the app. The widget displays your current fasting level, tradition, and fasting period — updated daily. SMART NOTIFICATIONS Morning reminders tell you today's fasting rule before your first meal. Evening reminders prompt you to reflect on the day.

A Catholic App is a reverent companion for Catholics who want clear, faithful answers to the questions of daily life — and a quiet, beautiful place to pray. Ask anything: about the Mass, the sacraments, prayer, doctrine, Scripture, morals, the saints. A Catholic App returns plain-language answers grounded only in officially recognized Catholic sources, with citations to the Catechism, Sacred Scripture, the ecumenical councils, papal encyclicals, the Code of Canon Law, and the traditional prayers of the Church. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Ask in your own words — type or speak — and receive a clear, faithful answer with sources you can verify. • Voice mode — tap the microphone, ask aloud, and hear the answer read back in a calm, reverent voice. • Pray the Rosary — guided step by step with the four sets of mysteries, with the prayers themselves read aloud so you can simply pray along. • Build a personal library — bookmark answers, revisit your history, and follow related questions deeper. • Quiet, parchment-and-burgundy design — no ads, no clutter, no distractions. WHAT YOU WON'T FIND • No advertising, ever. • No accounts, no email required, no tracking. • No personal opinions presented as Catholic teaching — every answer cites real, named sources. A NOTE FROM THE TEAM A Catholic App is a study and devotional aid. It is not a substitute for the sacraments, for the pastoral guidance of a priest, or for the formal teaching authority of the Church. Pray. Read the sources. Speak with your pastor.
