## Description

The fasting calendar most apps get wrong, kept right — for both New and Old Calendar. The saints, readings and prayers of every day. Offline. Free. No ads.

Synaxis is a calm, reverent companion for the Orthodox Christian day — built by Orthodox, for Orthodox. No ads. No subscription. Pay once, if ever.

Every morning, know exactly where you stand: today's fast, the saint and feast commemorated, the appointed readings, and the prayers to keep. Synaxis computes the fasting calendar carefully, following OCA practice with Slavic-tradition rubrics, for both the New (Revised Julian) and Old (Julian) calendars.

THE DAILY FAST, CLEARLY
• Today's fasting rule at a glance — strict, wine & oil, fish, dairy, or fast-free — and the reason why
• A clear guide to every fasting level and calendar marker
• The full fasting and feast calendar: Great Lent, Holy Week, Pascha, and the Apostles', Dormition, and Nativity fasts; Wednesdays & Fridays; fast-free weeks
• Rubrics follow OCA / Slavic tradition; Greek and Antiochian use differs on some days
• Pascha computed by the traditional Paschalion, with the whole movable cycle years ahead

SAINTS & THEIR LIVES
• The saints and commemorations of every day of the year — now a fuller menologion, with more saints named on each day
• Read any saint's life in full — the complete Prologue from Ochrid, a life and a word for every day, offline
• Name-days: find any name's patron saint and when the Church celebrates it

THE DAILY READINGS
• The appointed Epistle and Gospel of the day, in full — public-domain text, offline

PRAYERS & THE JESUS PRAYER
• The daily prayer rule in reverent, traditional English (public-domain texts)
• A digital prayer rope (chotki) for the Jesus Prayer

CHOOSE YOUR TRADITION
• New Calendar (Greek, Antiochian) or Old Calendar (Russian, OCA) — your own calendar, always free

ON YOUR HOME SCREEN
• A widget with today's fast and feast, in the liturgical color of the day
• Gentle, optional fast-day reminders

ALWAYS FREE
The fast, the calendar, the saint of the day and today's life, the daily readings, the prayers, and the prayer rope are free, forever, for everyone. No ads.
