I

Prayer first.
Everything else second.

Follow the rosary one prayer at a time, choose today’s mysteries, and read traditional Catholic prayers without needing a connection.

English and Latin are available where the app bundles both texts. Daily Scripture uses selected public-domain Douay-Rheims passages; it is not an official liturgical lectionary.

Free devotional core

A prayer book that still works when the signal does not.

Four mystery sets
Pray the Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful and Glorious mysteries with a guided sequence.
Traditional prayers
Keep a focused library of Catholic prayers close at hand, with sources and licences shown in the app.
Apple Watch rosary
Move through the rosary from your wrist without an app account.

II

Optional Personal Rule

Build a rhythm without turning prayer into a score.

Basic prayer search is free. Personal Rule adds schedules, local reminders, full practice history, private notes and a practice widget. It is there for structure when structure helps.

Your notes, schedules and prayer activity remain on your device. There is no app account or app-operated cloud sync.

Daily prayer rhythm: morning—offer the day and ask for guidance; midday—pause, give thanks and begin again; evening—review the day, ask forgiveness and rest.
