The application for submitting notes to Voznesensky Pechersky, which once stirred up the Orthodox community monastery iRequires() is not currently being updated, and the Android version has not yet been launched. There was an attempt to raise funds through crowdfunding for the Disappearing Shrines application (a project of the Rublev.ru portal), which, unfortunately, was not successful. Perhaps the demand for Orthodox mobile applications is rather conservative, but most likely, the majority of Orthodox developers simply do not have hundreds of thousands of rubles extra to develop a more or less high-quality and interesting application.
