The Orthodox day,
in your pocket.
Daily prayers, scripture readings, the lives of the saints, the fasting rule, and the wisdom of the Church Fathers — gathered into one Orthodox Christian app you can open before the rest of the world wakes up.
Six things that make
an Orthodox day.
Daily Scripture & Readings
The appointed Epistle and Gospel for the day, in an easy-to-read font. Each with short commentary from the Holy Fathers.
Lives of the Saints
A full life for every saint of the day — not a stub. Written to be read slowly with morning coffee, not skimmed in a panic.
Morning & Evening Prayers
The full Daily Office in English, formatted for a phone screen. Trisagion, Psalms, Creed, the commendation — all there, nothing hidden behind an upsell.
Fasting Rule
Is today a fast? Strict? Fish and wine? Get a clear, per-day answer based on the Church calendar.
Ask the Fathers
Ask a question, get a passage — search St. John Chrysostom, St. Isaac the Syrian, the Desert Fathers.
A Private Journal
A quiet place for the day's reflection, a prayer intention, the name of someone on your heart. Private by default. Exportable when you want it.
Three screens,
one rhythm.
A quiet opening to the day
The Today view gathers the saint, the feast, the readings, and the fast into one page. No notifications to clear, no feed to scroll — just what the Church set before you this morning.

Built for Orthodox Christians —
not a generic devotional.
Most “Christian apps” assume a single evangelical default. This one doesn’t. The Lives of the Saints app is built from the ground up for Eastern Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox Christians — Greek, Antiochian, Russian, Serbian, Romanian, Coptic, Ethiopian, Georgian, OCA — with the typicon, the saints, and the fasting tradition the Church has kept for two thousand years.
Whether you’re a lifelong Orthodox Christian, a catechumen reading your way toward Chrismation, or an inquirer discovering the Church for the first time, the daily rhythm is the same: open the app, pray the morning prayers, read the appointed scripture, meet the saint of the day. Thirty years of calendar craft, in a form that fits in a pocket.
The morning routine of
thousands of Orthodox homes.
“I open it before I open anything else in the morning. It's changed the shape of my day.”
“As a catechumen, this app is the reason I haven't felt lost. The lives of the saints are written like real stories.”
“Finally, an Orthodox app that doesn't feel like a side project. The Fathers search alone is worth it.”
“My wife and I pray the Daily Office from this each morning. It's become part of our marriage.”
Seven days free,
then less than a coffee a week.
- The full Daily Office — morning & evening
- Every saint of the day with a full life
- Gospel & Epistle with patristic commentary

Before you sign up,
the honest answers.
Every day you get the saint of the day with a full life, the appointed Gospel and Epistle readings with patristic commentary, morning and evening prayers from the Daily Office, the fasting rule for that day, and a private journal. You also get Ask the Fathers — search across the Philokalia, St. John Chrysostom, the Desert Fathers, and other classics.
Yes. Seven days, everything unlocked, no payment up front. Cancel inside the app with two taps and you won't be charged.
iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets, and any modern web browser. One account, synced everywhere — start morning prayer on your phone and finish on the laptop.
Especially then. Every prayer and reading includes context, and the lives of the saints are written as stories — not reference entries. Thousands of catechumens use it to learn the rhythm of the Church before they ever step into a parish.
Prayers, readings, and the saint of the day are cached on-device after you open them once, so daily practice works offline. Search across the Fathers requires a connection.
Begin tomorrow morning
with the Church.
Seven days, no payment. If it doesn’t change the first five minutes of your day, uninstall it and keep the saints you met along the way.
