Reviews

What Users Are Saying

★★★★★

“I love the prompts. I’m praying these prayers much more consistently now because of the notifications. I especially love that tapping the notification takes you straight to the prayer, and the bell chimes are going as soon as you open it. It makes it really easy to pause and pray in the moment. Thank you!”

“This App is straightforward to use. I recommend it to anyone who wants to enrich their spiritual life while connecting to their cultural heritage. Since most church bells have fallen silent, this App brings a valuable tradition back to you on a personal level. It is helping us to get grounded more in our 2,000 year old faith.”

“Love this app for its simplicity with deep results. There are times when I’m not able to actually separate myself to pray with the bells, but I’m still reminded in my heart of the prayer and the knowledge that others across the world are praying with me.”

“I used to use my iPhone alarm for the Angelus, but now I can listen to beautiful Church bells instead. You don't even have to open the app, but if you do you will see The Angelus in English & Latin if you don't know it by heart. Great app.”
