No. Rosary works straight away, with no sign-up, no email address and no password. Your statistics and intentions stay on your device.

Yes. There are no ads, no subscriptions and no in-app purchases. Every feature is available to everyone.

Almost entirely. The rosary, the chaplets, the Via Crucis, the novenas, the audio narration, the Bible and the Catechism are bundled with the app and need no connection.

A connection is required for the Gospel of the day, the saint of the day, the sacred-art images and the places map. Once loaded, those contents are cached and remain readable offline.

Playback is designed to continue with the screen off. If it stops:

• iPhone: check that the silent switch is not muting the app and that Low Power Mode is off.
• Android: in Settings › Apps › Rosary › Battery, set battery usage to "Unrestricted". Aggressive battery savers, common on Xiaomi, Huawei, Samsung and OnePlus devices, suspend background audio.

• Make sure notifications are allowed for Rosary in your system settings.
• On Android 12 and later, also grant the "Alarms & reminders" permission, otherwise reminders can be delayed by hours.
• Check that a Focus mode, Do Not Disturb or a scheduled silence is not covering the reminder time.
• Reminders are scheduled locally: if you change time zone or restart the phone, open the app once so they are rescheduled.

The map needs the location permission to centre on you. You can grant it from Settings › Rosary › Location; if you deny it, the map still works but you have to move it by hand.

Places come from OpenStreetMap through the public Overpass service, which is sometimes busy: if the list is empty, wait a few seconds and pan the map slightly to retry. Zooming out too far also returns no results, because the search area becomes too large.

Yes. Open Settings from the home screen: you can pick the app language, the narration voice, the playback speed, the bead colours and the theme. The audio files are bundled with the app, so switching voice needs no download.

Statistics, intentions and preferences live only on your device: uninstalling the app, or clearing its storage from your system settings, deletes them for good. We keep no cloud copy, so nothing survives on our side and nothing can be restored.

To request deletion of the anonymous diagnostic data as well, write to us at the address below.

Please write to us. To help us reproduce the problem, include:

• the app version, shown at the bottom of the About screen;
• your device model and system version;
• what you were doing when it happened.
