Currently it is just English to Latin. Should I include other languages to Latin? If so which ones?

Just curious as developing the widgets is a bit more work to do and test. Is this something people like or use?

Prefer something simple? Futuristic? Cottagecore? Retro? Paper like?

What keeps you going I wish I had an app for that or maybe even like I wish there was an easier way for something related to your Catholic faith?

Hey everyone! Next up, I wanted to share another Catholic app I built: Latinitas — Learn Latin with Prayer.

Website: https://latinitasapp.com/

Platform: iOS

Latinitas is an app for learning Ecclesiastical / Church Latin through the actual prayers of the Catholic faith.

The idea is simple:

Discere Orando — Learn by Praying.

Instead of learning Latin through random textbook sentences or disconnected vocabulary drills, Latinitas teaches Latin in context through prayers Catholics already know and love.

## What Latinitas Does

Latinitas helps you learn Latin through:

* Catholic prayers
* Word-by-word translations
* Grammar explanations
* Church Latin pronunciation audio
* Prayer history and context
* Interactive exercises
* Daily Latin practice
* XP, streaks, and progress tracking

The goal is not just to memorize words, but to understand how Latin lives inside Catholic prayer.

## Current Features

Latinitas currently includes:

* 17 Latin prayers
* 4 learning modules
* 8+ exercise types
* 800+ Latin words
* Prayer-based lessons
* Grammar deep dives
* Vocabulary practice
* Daily Latin phrases
* Audio pronunciation
* Progress tracking and streaks

The learning modules include:

* Prayers of the Faith
* Devotional Prayers
* The Holy Rosary
* Sacred Liturgy

## Version 1.2.0 Update

The newest update brings Latin pronunciation across more of the app.

You can now tap Latin words throughout modules, prayers, and Daily Lectio to hear Church Latin pronunciation and view meanings in context.

The update also includes:

* Expanded Ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation dictionary
* 806 word pages with audio
* New audio and definitions for additional Latin words
* Improved word recognition with punctuation and quotation marks
* Refined audio selections for clearer listening
* Improved audio playback stability
* New prayers and expanded Rosary coverage

This update is meant to help users move beyond simply reading Latin on the page. You can now touch a word, hear it spoken, and learn how it functions inside Catholic prayer.

## Why I Think It Fits r/catholicapps

Latinitas is directly built around Catholic prayer, Catholic tradition, and the sacred language of the Church.

It is meant for Catholics who want to:

* Learn traditional prayers in Latin
* Better understand the words they are praying
* Grow more familiar with Church Latin pronunciation
* Study Catholic prayers with context and grammar
* Build a daily habit around sacred language

This is the kind of app I hope r/catholicapps can help surface: tools that help Catholics pray, learn, build discipline, and deepen their faith through technology.

## I’d Love Feedback

I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

* Does the app concept make sense?
* Does “learn Latin through Catholic prayer” explain the value clearly?
* Are the screenshots and App Store listing compelling?
* What prayers should be added next?
* Would you prefer more grammar, more audio, or more guided practice?
* Does the app feel beginner-friendly enough?
* What would make you more likely to recommend it?

Thanks for checking it out. I’m excited to keep building tools like this and to help make r/catholicapps a place where Catholic app makers and users can actually find each other.

God bless!

Hey everyone! I’m u/JuryWorking8023, the founding moderator of r/catholicapps.

Welcome to our new home for all things related to Catholic apps, Catholic tech, faith-based digital tools, app development, feedback, promotion, and discussion around building better technology for the Church and Catholic life.

I started this community because many larger Catholic spaces understandably limit app promotion, but Catholic creators still need a respectful place to share what they are building, ask for feedback, discover useful tools, and help one another make better apps for prayer, Scripture, liturgy, family life, productivity, education, evangelization, and more.

## What to Post

You are welcome to post things like:

- Catholic apps you have built or discovered
- App launch announcements
- Requests for beta testers or feedback
- Feature ideas for Catholic apps
- Questions about Catholic app development
- UI/UX feedback requests
- App store screenshots, descriptions, pricing, or marketing help
- Discussions about prayer apps, Bible apps, liturgical calendar apps, rosary apps, saint apps, Catholic productivity tools, family faith apps, and similar projects
- Technical questions related to building Catholic apps
- Ideas for apps the Catholic world needs

Self-promotion is allowed here as long as it is relevant, respectful, and not spammy. If you built something useful for Catholics, this is a place where you can share it.

## Community Vibe

The goal is simple: charity, usefulness, and constructive feedback.

This should be a place where Catholic developers, designers, founders, creators, users, and curious Catholics can talk openly about apps and technology without tearing each other down.

Please be respectful, assume good intent, and keep feedback helpful. We want to support Catholic innovation while staying faithful, charitable, and focused.

## How to Get Started

1. Introduce yourself in the comments below.
2. Share a Catholic app you use, built, or wish existed.
3. Ask a question or request feedback on an idea.
4. Invite Catholic developers, creators, or app users who would enjoy this community.

Thanks for being part of the very first wave. Together, let’s make r/catholicapps a helpful home for Catholic app discovery, feedback, development, and promotion.

God bless!
