About Damascus

Prayer isn't a to-do list. It's a relationship... "the living relationship of the children of God with their Father" (CCC 2565). The Damascus App is built to help you live it: every day, with your people, everywhere your phone already is. Praying every day is hard. Damascus makes the rhythm stick — and keeps it social, so you're never doing it alone. Today's Mass readings, the saint of the day, the rosary, and your prayer journal come together in one guided flow you build yourself: the Prayer Dare. Open the app, pray the day, mark it done, watch your streak grow. WHAT'S INSIDE • Prayer Dare — a modular daily prayer flow you build yourself. Mass readings, antiphons, the rosary, Divine Mercy Chaplet, the Angelus, the saint of the day, reflections, intentions, silent timers, and your own custom prayers. Reorder, hide, or add anything in seconds. • Color Wars & community — weekly team leaderboards, friend invites, and contact matching so you pray alongside the people you actually know. Faith is a team sport. • Scripture Before Scrolling — let prayer be the key that unlocks your phone. Choose the apps that distract you and earn them back with prayer. Every other screen-time app just blocks you; Damascus leads you somewhere that matters. • Today's Mass readings — full First Reading, Psalm, Second Reading, acclamation, and Gospel, sourced daily. Highlight a verse, attach a note, find it again in My Highlights. Synced everywhere you sign in. • Saint of the day — a beautiful portrait, a monologue, and their patronage, in a fullscreen view you can zoom and share. • Pray everywhere — Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, Control Center, Apple Watch, and CarPlay. Today's Gospel on your wrist, today's saint on your screen, today's prayer on your drive. Built natively for Apple, so a moment with God is always one glance away. • Streaks, quests & achievements — a forgiving streak that doesn't punish you for a hard day, with badges for the rhythm you actually keep. • Prayer journal — a place for what you heard in prayer today, synced across devices. • Events & ticketing — registration, schedules, and tickets for Damascus events in person. DAMASCUS+ (OPTIONAL) Damascus+ unlocks the full talk library: homilies, retreat sessions, conference talks, and teaching series. Search and filter by speaker, year, event, or category. Favorite, watch later, and pick up where you left off on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.

Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when a subscription is purchased. Terms of Service: https://damascus.net/terms Privacy Policy: https://damascus.net/privacy ABOUT DAMASCUS The Damascus App is built by the team behind the Damascus Missionary Movement, whose summer camps and retreats have formed young Catholics for over two decades. The app brings that same daily rhythm and adventurous spirit home, so the encounter doesn't end when camp does. (Fittingly, the Catechism's own definition of prayer comes from St. John Damascene.) Live the adventure. Daily.

What’s new

Version 2.3 · Updated October 14, 2026

The Library is here. The second tab now opens on For You, with lanes for Watch, Listen, Read & Learn and Pray, and one search that finds talks, music, Church documents, novenas and prayers at once. Damascus+ talks have transcripts. Read along, tap a line to jump there, or find a talk by something that was said. A few talks are now free for anyone signed in. Damascus+ also has a new front door: a look at what's inside before you join, and a proper welcome when you do. App Time Limits gained an accountability passcode and a Night Limit, so someone you trust can hold the keys after dark. Saints, pictured your way: sacred art, icons, mosaics, illustrations or characters, rotating through the looks you choose. New devotions: St. Bridget's 12-Year Prayers, plus novenas to Our Lady, Undoer of Knots and Our Lady of Good Remedy. The Prayer Timer now ends however suits the room: a notification that follows your silent switch, a silent banner, or the alarm. Find it under "When it ends" on the timer card. Help is built in: open Settings → Help, or Help from the menu on Home. Ready for iPhone Duo, folded or unfolded. Citations from the Church Fathers, the Council of Trent and other classics now name their source and open the exact passage. And your streak looks out for you: a heads-up when it's about to end, and a Streak Freeze for a day you just missed.
