This app is amazing, offering the reminders for prayers access to the stories of the Saints being able to listen to him such as the Cherubic hymns along with the DailyReadings whenever a feast day is happening or a fast day or which saint we are commemorating on which day is amazing, this is one app that I am willing to pay for and contribute to, even though I’m not one who usually does that, but supporting our brothers and sisters in Christ, who go through the trouble to make an app like this, which looks amazing and has so many amazing features is something I’m willing to do especially after such an amazing job on this was done!

Pretty sure the whole thing is AI…
JinzaiX
I’m fairly certain this entire app—all of the content, the images, the audio, and even the audio script—is generated by AI. Users have no idea who the people are behind the app, nor do we know who the speakers are in the audio lessons. Why? Because there’s no transparency, which leads me to be very suspicious of the person or persons behind the app. Everything about the app feels very generic, and the fact that they include an AI chatbot tells you everything you need to know about the app. Perhaps I’m wrong, but I can’t help but feel that this app is just a cash grab by some technobros who saw an opportunity to create an app for the Orthodox-curious by using LLMs to create all the content, with little if any input or guidance from the Church, Orthodox theologians, or Orthodox clergy. I paid for the premium version for a month to test it fully, and came away feeling that I’d been shortchanged. The bottom line is that no app or AI is a suitable replacement for Church membership and involvement, along with guidance from your local parish priest. Personally, I’d steer clear of this app, but that’s just my personal opinion. You’ll have to try it to see for yourself.
So far so good!

I really like this app so far. I like that a lot of things are available with the free version and it doesn’t require you to subscribe to access prayers like some other apps do which i feel is wrong. Beautiful interface, easy to use. HOWEVER- my only complaint is thd fact that it has an AI chat to ask questions and it’s just generally very AI heavy. I haven’t seen any AI icons in it at least. But I do feel this is inappropriate and could seriously misguide people. These are questions to be asked of spiritual fathers, general clergy or even godparents. Not soulless AI. We are called to be not of this world… asking artificial intelligence spiritual questions is exactly the opposite of that. Really wish they’d remove that aspect and it’d be an excellent app.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and heartfelt feedback. We truly appreciate your kind words about the interface, accessibility, and the fact that core prayers are available without a subscription. That means a great deal to us.We also deeply respect your concerns regarding the AI chat feature. We want to clarify that the AI Chat in Athon is not intended to replace the guidance of a spiritual father, priest, or any member of the clergy. It is not a source of pastoral direction or personal spiritual counsel. Those relationships are sacred and irreplaceable.The AI feature is designed only to help with general questions, such as providing references or explanations drawn from the Orthodox Bible and established teachings. It is trained specifically on Orthodox sources and is meant to serve as a supplementary educational tool, not spiritual authority.For those who prefer not to use it, the AI Chat can be completely disabled and hidden in the app’s settings.We are grateful you took the time to share your perspective. Feedback like yours helps us continue improving Athon in a way that remains faithful and respectful to the Orthodox tradition.
New to Orthodoxy, best app!

I am new to Orthodoxy and the practices can be overwhelming to learn. This app lays out a daily routine so clearly in the “Orthodox Daily” section with prayer, scripture, saints, feasts, fasts and a daily Orthodox tip. I love the daily progress wheel! There are also push notifications reminding me to pray throughout the day. This app is an excellent tool for Christians wanting some guidance in their personal devotion. I showed it to my kids and have seen them opening it throughout the day. On top of that, it is beautifully designed with inspiring artwork. Blessings to the developers! I am excited support the project and see what the paid version offers!

thank you so much for your beautiful words and blessing! 🌿 It means the world to hear that Athon is helping you and even your children grow in prayer and in love for Christ. The Daily section, the reminders, and the progress wheel were made exactly with this in mind, to gently guide us and keep us rooted in an Orthodox rhythm of life.
With God’s grace, Athon receives a major update, bringing a renewed experience with improved design, enhanced functionality, and new features throughout the app.
