Catholify

Catholify is a social prayer network for Catholics. It tries to be the place where you keep up with your faith and stay connected to other Catholics in one app.

You get daily curated Catholic content, small-group conversations, and the ability to pray together over shared intentions. You can set prayer goals, find Mass and Confession times near you, search the Bible and the Catechism by keyword, and use built-in tools for the Rosary and the Stations of the Cross. Your data syncs across your devices.

The heart of it is praying for and with other people. Posting an intention and knowing others are actually praying over it is a good use of a phone, and the prayer tools and Mass-times feature are genuinely handy to have in the same place.

This is a good fit for someone who wants a bit of community around prayer — a small group from the parish, family spread across the country, or friends keeping each other accountable.

A social app only works if the people you want are already on it, and the community here is smaller than the big mainstream apps. Some features need an account and a login, which not everyone wants.
