His own application for smartphone απέκτησε το …'Αγιο Όρος! O χρήστης μπορεί να “κατεβάσει” δωρεάν την εφαρμογή και να έχει στο κινητό του πληροφορίες για το παλαιό (που ισχύει στην Αθωνική Πολιτεία) και το νέο ημερολόγιο, με ταυτόχρονη presentation of their holidays, the fasts that apply every day, the lives of all the saints, the detailed telephone directory of contact with Mount Athos, the holy festivals of all the holy scenes and the psychologically beneficial gnomiks from the wisdom of the Fathers.
Indeed, if one wants it, he can receive a daily alert on his cell phone, at the time he will set, for the celebration and the fast of the day.
The application was created by the company ASTAE, based in Thessaloniki, wanting to facilitate the 300.000 visitors that Mount Athos receives every year, but also the faithful in general. The information was kindly provided by the fathers of the Holy Monastery of Pantokrator of Mount Athos, provided it is available free of charge.
The director of AST, Yiannis Theodorakis, told APE-MPE that the idea for the application arose when he and the company executives, who often visit Athonia, found that the place lacks information for the visitor, for example he does not know where to turn to rent car, or the phone number of the Monastery he wants to visit.
The company's thinking is to provide application information in Slavic languages for foreign visitors to Mount Athos.
The application is available at App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android device.
