Hallow App is great for Camino

Suffice it to say I haven't yet stopped walking
Recently I was listening to a podcast and there was a brief commercial on an App called Hallow (https://hallow.com/). It is designed as a Catholic prayer and meditation app, but I have found that much of it could be used by those who simply appreciate Christianity also.
What I have found most enjoyable is the Gregorian Chant music and the aids in assisting meditation. It also facilitates prayer in short, concise doses - one minute to ten minutes.
I am looking forward to using this as I walk around home, waking up in the morning and going to sleep. I don't know the group who designed this, but this is an App that I find useful every day. I am certain that there are others that will find this App to be an enjoyable addition. It is something that I can recommend without reservation.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Thanks so much, this sounds lovely.
One of the options the App provides is having background sound - particularly good in the evening preparing for sleep. Though there are a few different sounds, one of them is Gregorian Chant, which I really enjoy. The experience of saying the Rosary or listening to scripture readings, etc. is elevated. It just works for me. Others may find the oceans sounds have better applicability for them.
This morning I was listening to the morning options and listened to the saint of the day along with other prayers. It just allows me to begin my mornings in a better frame of mind.
Though I suspect many use this App on their phone, I use it on my iPod.
The App has a free period so that you can check it out, but then there is a small monthly fee. It is a worthwhile expense in my life as I continue to search for more peace in my life and in the world rather than what is offered on the news, politics, etc.
Buen Camino
