### 2/5 — Stopped working with iPad

*2026-08-01*

Aleteia is a great news source, but several months ago the iPad version of the app stopped working well. It now only takes up the left 1/3 of the screen and there is no way to make it use the full screen like it used to. This isn’t like some iPhone apps that only display in the middle of the iPad, the Aleteia app seems like it was designed to work with the iPad’s larger screen, but it just doesn’t.

### 3/5 — Sur iPad

*2026-04-20*

Impossible d’avoir la version plein écran. J’ai seulement la version iPhone qui se trouve réduite sur la gauche. 
Merci pour une prochaine correction !!

Poplll

### 4/5 — Une amélioration possible

*2026-01-12*

Bonjour,
Quand on lit un article, il n’y a pas la possibilité de revenir à la page d’accueil. On est obligé de remonter tout en haut de l’article et de cliquer sur Aleteia pour revenir à l’accueil. Il serait aussi appréciable de pouvoir retrouver la liste des articles là où on l’a laissée pour pouvoir lire les articles suivants sans avoir à redescendre depuis le début. 
Merci !

### 5/5 — Treasure Trove for Catholics

*2026-01-11*

I am so blessed by this app every single day. It has changed my heart, my soul, my life. Beautiful and filled with wisdom, I can’t recommend it enough. I share it with friends and family so they can feel the love of Jesus up close as well.

### 2/5 — Perte du contenu…

*2025-12-11*

Plus d’affichage sur la plage principale sur iPad mini depuis quelques semaines. Tout s’affiche dans la petite colonne de gauche et pour le reste : écran blanc. C’est dommage

### 3/5 — Remettre l’onglet favoris

*2025-11-29*

Depuis la dernière mise à jour il n’est plus possible d’avoir les articles en favoris. Et le compte premium se déconnecte souvent. Je suis déçu de ce changement car j’allais souvent dans mes articles favoris.. à corriger rapidement si cela est possible merci.

### 5/5 — Bonjour

*2025-11-08, version 5.0*

Bien cependant depuis la dernière mise à jour l’on ne peux plus mettre des articles en favoris ? Merci

### 5/5 — Catholic Digest

*2025-09-10*

The best Catholic news app available now!

### 3/5 — Deux bémols

*2025-06-01, version 4.4.4*

Bonne application, mais deux bémols :
- quand il y a des photos, on voudrait pouvoir les agrandir en cliquant dessus (comme sur d’autres applications d’info)
- le démarrage automatique des vidéos à l’ouverture d’un article est très gênant (par exemple quand on est dans le train). Cette fonctionnalité, qui impose un fond sonore au lecteur, ne me semble pas être en phase avec l’esprit d’Aleteia.

### 4/5 — Très bien mais

*2025-04-19*

J’aime beaucoup cette application qui m’apprend énormément de choses et m’aide à en comprendre d’autres sur ma foi. Seul bémol : la lecture automatique des vidéos…
