Mary Reviews

by Pray&Pray

First of all, I like this a lot, but for now only gave 3 stars because I use Mary in vibrate mode so I know I progress without looking at my phone. HOWEVER, I wish they would modify the end of every mystery (red bead) to vibrate twice. There were several times I would accidentally pass more than ten because there was no difference in the vibration at the end of a mystery. Especially useful if the eyes are closed when praying the rosary. So hopefully a simple double vibrate update in the end (red bead) would happen from the developers.

I like Mary , but in the Rosary section I would like to suggest a few things. After each mystery is announced on the single bead, during the recreation of the snail this app decade, keep the mystery visible. I’m new to saying the rosary and that would help keep me focused, since I don’t have them memorized.

Also, there doesn’t seem to be a summary of all the mysteries. I believe you have a pamphlet with that information. That would be a helpful tool and your information (i) button within the rosary could be added there as well.

Thank you.

Like I said, great this app app and very informative. Super nice to have all related information in one place. Really my only qualm is it’s simplicity, a few extra features would’ve been nice— say, the ability to highlight orr I dunno maybe bookmark stuff. But all in all, you can do with the bells and whistles and it gets the very important job done— of spreading Marian devotion to the minds and hearts of individuals, which there is clearly not enough of. It’s beautiful to see somewhat of a (slow) return of the Divine feminine; people awakening all over the world for many reasons, not only to their own spiritual nature, but the spiritual nature of the universe. It is hard to know where to turn in times where there is so much darkness, and there is deep corruption in the church. I’m sure they’re are many Catholics who don’t know where to turn. But I’m grateful we have scripture and many non-canonical & Apocrypha & all matter of spiritual sustenance to turn to, In these times. It’s not the first time Catholics have been the bad guys, or rebelled, or persecuted— but at least nowadays we have many of these texts to turn to. As the prophet Jeremiah said— “thy words were found, and I did eat them.”🙏🧘‍♂️📿

I do really like Mary. I am currently mostly using it for the audio rosary. I like the voice. Some audio rosaries the voice is to fast or slow or just hard to listen to. This one is good. The only problem is a few glitches. A few prayers cut out or repeat. Also, the view of the rosary as he is praying does not line up with what is being prayed at all.

Mary is good for praying. I find it very helpful when praying since I don’t carry a rosary with me or prayer books.

One issue I have is that when praying the rosary and other meditation prayers that it is the same vibration for all beads. When we reach the mystery bead after 10 Hail this app’s it should give a distinct vibration like a double or triple vibration. Most people I know pray mediation prayers with their eyes closed.

Mary has provided me a lot of knowledge about our Mother. The four dogmas clarifies her role, characteristics as the Mother of God and our Mom. Also Mary includes apparitions, shrine sites and many other information. I pray to be closer to her, Mary is helping me to achieve that...Mama this app pray for us, for me and my son, keep us closer to your heart and to your son,Jesus.

I love Mary! It is beautifully written and is filled with devotions and prayers to help you grow in relationship with this app and in turn grow in Christ!

I especially love the audio rosary. The Marians are such an amazing order of priests. I have yet to be disappointed with anything that I have read or watched or listened to from one of their priests.

I first downloaded the Divine Mercy Novena and loved the very smart way the application was developed. Tonight i was telling my wife i wished you may create a similar application to pray the Holy Rosary and to my surprise you already had. Dear brothers and sisters, if your driving back and forth is long enough, sync your telephone with the Blue tooth of your car, set the autoplay option and you can safely drive and pray the Holy Rosary without taking your hands off the steering wheel. This is a great way to take the prayer of the Holy Rosary with you every where you go.

Let me tell you guys something. Mary has increased my spiritual life immensely. In this technology age, a virtual rosary is as good as any. Easy to use, doesn't crash, clean and simple interface. Also has additional trivial behind the histories of prayers and devotions. You will not regret downloading Mary.

This is the most effective app I’ve tried for my personal and spiritual growth with the Rosary. It is user friendly and complete with the guidance I need and want in an app. It has been instrumental in my devotion to our Blessed Mother. Thank you Marian Fathers & to all who had a part in creating Mary!

by Heartintraining

I am really appreciating the two apps by the Marians. I am touched by the added reflections that deepen the devotions especially as they are being learned. I have discovered chaplets I hadn't known before that are rich with blessings when prayed. Thank you Fathers for utilizing this technology to help us grow in love and understanding of our Blessed Mother ! I am recommending to friends.

This is a really great app that I have used for years. Recently with the update to iOS11 when I try using Mary I receive a pop up window indicating that Mary needs to be updated. Please, Please, Please update Mary. I wouldn’t even mind paying for it if it helps. God bless.

I love Mary. As a young child, I prayed the rosary with my Grandmother. As I have grown older I lost the way the rosary should be prayed. Since I discovered Mary, I now say the rosary the way my Grandmother did. I get so much more out of the rosary now especially after reading the information at each of the decades. I recommend Mary to everyone!

I downloaded the Divine Mercy app about a week ago, and I saw Mary through that one. As a new Catholic, I never knew much about the Blessed Virgin, and so the last time I was praying the Glorious Mysteries, I asked her to help me know more about her. Today, I downloaded Mary! Total epiphany while praying the Glorious Mysteries again! Beautiful app and truly a blessing, thank you and God Bless!

by Lillian Waite

Mary is a blessing. It has enabled me to pray the chaplet and rosary as I have always wanted to do. Mary is the greatest and most beautiful tool of prayers, with the words and rosary to follow along as we pray. Thank you so much for this wonderful prayer tool.
In trying to know our Mother, we only found her Son. Why can’t we find you,Mother,
You must be there with Him. But it’s Jesus that we always find, in our world growing dim.
Most humble of all Mothers,
Your work is finally done.
Thank you Blessed this app,
You have given us your Son.
This is not the whole prayer. I found this BEAUTIFUL prayer in my Mothers prayer book when she died. The more you seek The Blessed Mother the closer you get to her Son.
Mary will help me to get closer and closer to Jesus. THE BEST GIFT OF ALL❣️ Thank you.

These holy people really know how to give God what He deserves, along with his precious Mother, this app. May they be blessed for honoring Them and spreading devotions that are so badly needed, as never before, in the world in which we live. I can't thank you enough for Mary. I will be giving a donation today. I use these two apps daily, and my prayer life has been greatly increased. God bless you and keep you in His loving arms. JMJ

St. Anthony Of Padua statue, statues being only an inspiration to pray, is a perfect, etymologically 'be done', inspiration to meditate as proclaimed by St. Anthony of Padua, that is, close the eyes, shut the ears, think inward, because God's Kingdom is not of this world, although human beings live in this world and, according to Sacred Scripture, St. Paul in Philippians, human beings must work out their own Salvation. Peace is the Reign of Christ Jesus Our Lord, plus Christ Jesus Our Lord is Salvation, both according to Sacred Scripture, Via Creator Of Creation Good, The Infinite Good.

Excellent app to help me pray the rosary at any time. Very reliable app. You can pray out loud with Mary and it will automatically keep moving to the next prayer without touching you phone. It can automatically say the correct mysteries of the day. Mary is packed with so much other useful interesting information about our mother this app. I have been using Mary for years and I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a daily devotion to praying the rosary.

by MissinPitts

I listen to Mary often while taking walks, driving, at night in bed etc..during a time of personal stress several years ago made promise to try to say Rosary every day and Mary helps me to do so. The audio voice is soothing and a nice feature. Also the Shrine of Divine Mercy in Stockbridge Massachusetts is a LOVELY serene place in the incredibly beautiful Berkshires area and highly recommend a visit to see the grounds, chapel, Stations of Cross etc.

This is wonderful to keep everything related to Consecration to Jesus through this app. However I've received a pop up message from Apple that says with the next iPhone upgrade, Mary as currently designed will not work! I pray that it will be able to be upgraded to match Apple's constant upgrades. Thank you and God bless you!
