About this app

** The #1 Prayer App & #1 Catholic App**

WHAT IS HALLOW
Hallow is a Christian prayer app that offers audio-guided meditation sessions to help us grow in our Christian faith & spiritual lives and find peace in God. Explore over 10,000 different sessions on contemplative prayer, meditation, Catholic Holy Bible readings, music, and more.

In today’s world, we’re stressed, anxious, distracted, and often sleep-deprived. At the same time, we’re searching for deeper meaning, purpose & relationships. We believe these two challenges can be addressed with the same solution: peace in Jesus. In the end, after all, a halo in Heaven is the goal :)

As Hallow is a Prayer App, the content is developed by experienced Catholic theology & spirituality guides, reviewed by senior leaders within the Catholic Church (e.g., PhDs, professors, Bishops, authors), and based on content from the approved Catholic Bible. While Hallow can be a beautiful app for Catholics, it is meant as a resource for people of all faiths & religions.

Ratings and reviews

I love this app! My only gripe is that on some of the prayers, readings, etc., the words of the beginning of sentences will be cut off. It sounds like the sound is cut out in between the speakers works to prevent background noise, but sometimes it's cut too long. For example the speaker will say "the word of the lord" but all I'll hear is "word of the lord".

The app does not consistently mark completed prayers as complete. I lost a 500+ day streak a few months ago because of this. Progress in a challenge is not recorded, and I have to listen to the last 10 seconds of the prayer again so the app can realize it has been completed. Sometimes, I have to play the last couple of seconds of the prayer a couple of times before Hallow marks it "Done".

Wish there was an option to turn off the"sign of the cross" in every prayer. I know, I should have read it's a Catholic app, but to be fair the influencers that brought me here didn't state it was a 'Catholic' app at all in the multiple times they promoted it, and it's not very evident unless you're looking for that. Nothing against Catholics, I grew up going to Catholic schools(St.Theresa, Damien high). I just think it would be a nice option for other Christians that do prayers differently.
