About this app

Orthodox Synaxarion is an Android application, created for the glory of God and to help nourish the personal prayer life of the faithful.

The application encapsulates a full Orthodox calendar with the following features:
Lives of the Saints and major feast days;
Saint icons and hymns (Troparions & Kontakions);
Julian (Old Calendar) and Revised Julian (New Calendar) selectors, configurable and switchable in real-time;
No need for Internet connection after installation;
Search function to find specific saints and feasts;
Text-To-Speech functionality, for daily readings;
Share bios functionality;
Favorites management, to easily add to (for quick and easy access) or remove from the Favorites list any Saint or feast day.

PLEASE NOTE:
Since the Android operating system has only a Gregorian calendar selector, when the app is running in Julian (Old Calendar) mode, the use of the calendar to pick a
specific day will reflect the Gregorian calendar day of the week (the Julian calendar day of the week is offset by 1 day).
Once the day is picked on the calendar, the correct offset for the day of the week will be reflected at the top of the screen.

Application supports Android 5.1 and up

Ratings and reviews

As another user mentioned, in the latest update the menu and search bar are blocked by the phone's status bar and can't be used. That said, otherwise the app is great! If this issue gets fixed I'll update to five stars.

The latest update places the menu and search icons overtop the phones status bar. I'm unable to tap them.

This is the Most Spiritually Edifying App in the whole Google Play App Store! I think that it's incredibly complete, even more so than the Calendar of the OCA (Orthodox Church in America). Thank you for making it! Thank you sooo much!
