Hallow

Catholic prayer and meditation app with guided sessions, Lent challenges and sleep prayers

Hallow is a subscription prayer app built on guided audio: daily prayers, rosaries, scripture reflections, night and sleep prayers, and seasonal programs such as its 40-day Lent challenge. Sessions run from a couple of minutes to an hour, streaks are tracked, and users can pray alongside a community. Well-known Catholic voices lead much of the content, and celebrity narrators have carried it to the top of the App Store during Lent. It is religious rather than secular mindfulness, which is the point. There is a free tier; the full library is paid.

    He fronts guided prayers and the Lent fasting sessions on the app. The partnership began in April 2022, around the release of Father Stu. The Christian Post describes him as a paid spokesperson. On Hallow's site he says prayer has always been the answer for him, and that the app has many ways to introduce people to prayer. He signs off with a reminder to stay prayed up.
