Hendey](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/lisa-m-hendey) ![](https://www.catholicmom.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/scriptural-2.jpg?width=320&height=480&name=scriptural-2.jpg "scriptural 2")For its .99 pricetag, [Scriptural Rosary App](http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=oTf*V4KmoeM&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fscriptural-rosary%252Fid416544127%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30) offers a good value for those looking for support in praying the Rosary.  It offers basic functionality, most notably the ability to select which mysteries to pray (but a default that offers the correct mysteries by day), the ability to resume a rosary you've begun, and the scriptural references for each "bead" of the rosary. Limited art at the announcement of each mystery, adjustable font size and a soothing color palate make this app easy to use. I'd like to see some additions, including more basic information devotion to the Rosary, some audio features, more artwork, a "swipe" feature to move between prayers, and perhaps even a social component to allow those praying the Rosary to share intentions.  Overall, [Scriptural Rosary App](http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=oTf*V4KmoeM&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fscriptural-rosary%252Fid416544127%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30) is a solid app for the price. As a point of comparison, I still vastly prefer the [Rosary Miracle Prayer](http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=oTf*V4KmoeM&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Frosary-miracle-prayer%252Fid373335581%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30) app developed by Pauline Books and Media.  A side by side comparison of the Daughters of St. Paul app vs. [Scriptural Rosary App](http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=oTf*V4KmoeM&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fscriptural-rosary%252Fid416544127%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30), both of which are .99 in the app store, shows the vast difference in features offered.  Hopefully, future updates to [Scriptural Rosary App](http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/stat?id=oTf*V4KmoeM&offerid=146261&type=3&subid=0&tmpid=1826&RD_PARM1=http%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fapp%252Fscriptural-rosary%252Fid416544127%253Fmt%253D8%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30) will continue to provide new features. ***Copyright 2011 Lisa M.
