Leave a Review Reimagining the Examen
  • Best Examen app so far.

    This app is beautifully designed in helping one examine their conscience daily. It provides many topics to meditate upon or it randomly selects a topic upon opening the app. Very nice. The iPhone X has no issues accessing all the features available.

    This Examen app is an excellent tool in setting the tone for my day or blessing me with a sense of peace in the evening.

  • Inclusive language

    I used the app for the first time today after it sat on my phone unused for a bit. I was having a pretty moving experience with the prompts initially. But then I read one of the prompts and noticed the use of the he/him/his pronouns for God. I tried to move past it, but I couldn’t. When I’m engaging with a prayer tool that is meant to help me feel the presence of God, I have a really hard time with exclusive language. It severs that connection for me. Everyone has a different vision of God, and I think the app would be more transformative for some if it acknowledged this through the use of inclusive language for God.

  • Very helpful

    I have been trying off and on for years to pray the examen consistently and never succeeding. The book of Reimagining the Examen was the best resource I had found but still not quite what I needed. The app is perfect. I like the way it walks me through step by step, and I like the flexibility to take its suggestion of a specific examen or select my own choice . Having it on my phone is convenient to encourage me to pray at bedtime instead of randomly scrolling.

  • Make for Android!

    I love the music and prompts!
    ⭐️ I wish it was made available for Androids, so my friends could use it too!!!! ⭐️
  • Audio not working iPhone 8

    Really like the content, and have used it with my son to help guide him through daily life struggles together. Also very beneficial to use as journal prompt guides.

    That being said, I gave it 3 for two reasons. The main one is that I cannot get any audio sounds to play on my iPhone 8 while in the App. Would love to hear the Ocean/Beach sounds that I chose in “Settings” while I read & Journal in the App. If someone can get this figured out, I’ll gladly change my rating to a 5. The last reason for the 3 is because I wish all the Examens could be sorted/organized by various categories or topics. Reading them all in one long random list isn’t user-friendly to my categorical-minded brain.

  • Cannot re-read the app for that day

    I enjoy the prompts however if I am in a meditation mode and my window closes, the app moves me to a new daily reflection. There is nothing in the drop down that will allow me to return to the Examen I was currently working on.
  • Helpful prompts & one suggestion

    I was recently introduced to Examen prayers and was happy to find your app when looking for more information. I am grateful for the variety of prompts. My one suggestion is to adapt the app so ones own music could be chosen over the preloaded (which I find distracting)...even if I mute the app, it does not allow itunes to play simultaneously from the same device. Otherwise, kudos on this app! Many thanks for developing it.

  • Love but music does not work for some reason

    Does anyone know why the music will not work? I like everything about this app though. I love the variety of emphasis in it.
  • Recommended

    A genuinely prayerful tool to look back over the day to see where God is speaking and leading.
  • Life changing
