Votiva writes it with the Word

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.

Ps 23:4
How it works

Three steps, and you're praying

  1. Tell it in your own words

    Tell it in your own words

    Surgery, an exam, a child far from home, a joy you want to give thanks for. For yourself or for someone you love.

  2. Votiva writes it with the Word

    Votiva writes it with the Word

    A prayer in the shape of tradition —calling on God, giving thanks, asking and trusting in Him— with a real Bible passage and its reference.

  3. Listen, or pray it aloud

    Listen, or pray it aloud

    Listen in Votiva's voice, or choose "Pray with me": the voice reads phrase by phrase and leaves you time to repeat.

Made with care

Everything you need to pray every day

The Word, never made up

Passages come from the World English Bible, Catholic edition. Votiva never quotes from memory: it chooses among real passages and shows the reference.

For you or for someone

Pray for your mom, a sick friend or someone who has passed away. Ask for the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Saint Joseph, Saint Jude or Padre Pio.

Send it on WhatsApp

They get a link with the prayer and the voice to listen to it, with nothing to install. And they can tell you "I'm praying too".

Novenas for your intention

Nine days in a row, a different prayer each day, and a reminder so you don't miss one.

Intentions you won't forget

Keep an intention and Votiva will ask how it went when the day comes: to give thanks, or to keep praying.

A moment every day

Choose the time of your reminder. Votiva counts the days you prayed, with no streaks to lose. And the widget shows what today brings.

The Holy Rosary

The guided rosary: Votiva leads, you answer

The mysteries of the day with their Gospel passage. Votiva says the first half of each prayer and you answer, at your own pace. If you like, close with the Litany of Loreto.

For every time of the year

Your privacy first

What you pray is yours

If what you share shows you are in danger, Votiva shows you where to get help first, and only then the prayer.

Questions

Who writes the prayer?

An artificial intelligence writes it, following the shape of Catholic prayer and using real Bible passages that Votiva chooses from a reviewed list. If something seems wrong, you can report it from the prayer itself.

Does Votiva replace the Church?

No. Votiva does not replace the prayer of the Church, the sacraments or the guidance of a priest: it helps you put into words what you carry in your heart.

Do I need an account?

No. Votiva works with no sign-up, no email and no password.

What happens to what I share?

It is used only to write your prayer and Votiva does not keep it. The name of the person you pray for never leaves your phone to write it.

Which languages?

Spanish, English and Portugal's Portuguese, each with its own Bible and voice.
