Mercy Prayerbook App By Simpalm

The Client.

The Sisters of Mercy of the Americas Inc., founded by Catherine McAuley, is an international community of Roman Catholic women based in Maryland that is dedicated to living the Gospel of Jesus. They have over 6,000 sisters and serve more than 3,100 Mercy-sponsored programs and institutions where they strive to make a difference in the lives of those across the world.

The Challenge.

The Sisters of Mercy of the Americas had an existing custom mobile application that digitized their Morning and Evening prayer book for use worldwide. However, they faced a significant challenge with their existing app when the app was severely outdated and no longer met the guidelines. With the original developers gone and out of business, they needed a complete rebuild of their application to ensure compatibility with today’s standards for modern design and technology.

The Solution.

We built a Mobile App. We partnered with the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas to deliver a modern solution using Cross Platform App Development, reviving the original application with updated design, improved performance, and support for both iOS and Android devices. The mobile application includes all of the same content as its predecessor as well as new functionalities, rebuilding the app from the ground up for compatibility across iOS and Android platforms and allowing Sisters across the world to access the prayerbook.

The Impact.

1. 10,000 sisters of mercy followers use the app for daily prayer.
2. Updated app receved 5/5 ratings from users.
3. Monthly active users reached fo around 2000, impacting many lives.
