I pray the rosary using a app on my android phone that has a prerecorded voice saying the rosary. If I'm out and about on the train or bus I put my earbud headphones on and pray along silently to that days mystery .

Does anyone else find it helpful to pray the rosary using an app on their smartphone? Both Apple and Android both have some really nice ones.

I pray all fifteen decades straight through in Latin, every day.

I just know someone's going to call me a modernist.

As long as you don't pray the "Luminous" mysteries, you're OK in my book.

I pray the Luminous, Terrific, and Bodacious mysteries.

My husband and I say the rosary in the morning after breakfast the days that he is off work. When he is working we say it before he goes to work about 6pm. I say extra rosaries when I walk, take the dog for a walk, driving, whenever I can and my goal is 3 rosaries if possible of the 15 mysteries. I find saying 3 a day very important for myself. In the home, we have a blessed candle that we light when we say rosary for those who have died before us. When we say rosary before Mass, I feel it best for me, to follow the mysteries with pictures of those mysteries so as to lessen distractions. I do not say rosaries in front of abortion clinics, BUT I would in front of the dioceses, because I know they deliver. Also I noticed that the flyers used to say rosary in front of clinics have the "meditations"of the rosary to meditations of abortion and such. I don't think this is right. I see it as being ecuмenicalized. If you are going to say a rosary, say it as Our Lady intended it to be said, you meditate on the mysteries. It is almost like the changes of the stations of the cross, you meditate on Christ's Passion and not of the cares of the world. I Thank you for this post.

What is your rosary routine? If you have a family, how and when do you say your rosary together?

My family prays the Holy Rosary usually at evenings, except Sundays when we pray the Holy Rosary along with the other faithful in the pews before the oblation of the hallowed Mysteries of the Sacred Altar.

At home we follow the Dominican method of recitation, since the faithful of the Spanish dominions were little accustomed to recite the Apostolic Symbol and the preliminary Pater and the threefold Ave before the Holy Mysteries. Some Catholics of Hispanic descent say the threefold Ave after the Mysteries but before the Salve Regina. The Litanies of the Blessed Virgin Mary are recited in Latin, as has been the custom in our family since our grandparents could remember.

There was a warm debate amongst us regarding what method to follow in the recitation of the Holy Rosary, and the question was settled by some pages taken from a Spanish translation of the Dominican Missal, Misal diario según el rito de la Orden de Predicadores, editado por el Padre Miguel Gelabert, O. P., en colaboración con varios Religiosos del convento de Predicadores de Valencia (Valencia: Editorial F. E. D. A., 1950) [*Except that we say the Salve Regina in place of the Sub tuum præsidium]:
