A great reference

I find this app very helpful. I like how it has the English as well as the Pali translation, this can be helpful. It’s basically just all in all a good reference guide to quickly have available to reference.

Needs to update for ip13 & ip14 screen dpi

The menu controls on the top of the screen are inaccessible due to the notch

Very useful

I find having the lists in one place is really useful. I often refer to this app to compliment what I’m reading or podcasts that I’m listening to. The background music is a nice touch.

Great app but isn’t working

I love this app and how simple it is and how great of an overview it is of Buddhism. The only problem is it hasn’t worked in a long time. It is extremely slow and freezes frequently. It needs an update to work on newer iOS. When it’s fixed I’ll change my review to five stars.

Response from developer

Hello, and thank you for the helpful feedback. I'm sorry the app isn't functioning properly on your phone. I learned to code just to build this it as a free gift for the Buddhist community a few years ago, and now I have to relearn the coding to update it, which I will try to do as soon as I can. I've tried my best to keep it free, which makes it more difficult to find the time to work on. Be well ✌🏼

Amazing app for a Buddhist

The basic and fundamental buddha teaching!

Amazing!

Great, haven't seen anything like it. I study buddhism and it is great for quick revision. I didn't give it 5 stars because I wish I could edit some of the definitions myself to how I learned it at school - although my definitions and this apps definitions mean the same thing, the words differ which confuses me a little. But overall amazing app, thank you so much!!

Unexpectedly Useful

I’m reading Buddhist/psych books, sitting daily and musing on the nature of things, like many people are. These lists are surprisingly (for me) useful in lending structure and clarity to the task in hand. Then to be able to click through to a fuller web-based reference document with a full explanation and discussion of each list is great when time allows. One practical thing: you need to double tap a list title to open it - very un-Apple, very PC. And, once you realise it, practical and easy to use.

Most excellent

I really wish more informational apps were like this: simple, straightforward, easy to use. Exactly what I needed!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind review, and I'm very happy you are enjoying the app. May you be happy and peaceful :)

Very Helpful

I was really surprised how many times I use this app. I really really like it. I would have given it 5 stars but sometimes I have to tap on the list I want a bunch of times before it pops up. But that is minor, it works and I am learning.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the feedback and for sharing your experience. I’m sorry about the difficulty you’ve had tapping on the list titles. I hope to have this fixed in the next update. Also, It makes me very happy to hear that Buddhist Lists is helping you learn the Buddha’s teaching. May all your good efforts take root and flourish. 🙏🏼

Not optimized for 11 Pro

This app is not optimized at all for iPhone 11 Pro displays. Completely unusable in its current state. UI extends outside of device screen. One star.

Response from developer

Hi, Nathan. I'm sorry that the app isn't yet optimized for your phone yet. I will try to update it as soon as possible. Thank you for the feedback, and may you find the stability in your Buddhist practice. -Rock

Great!

Touch targets a bit strict on my SE.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! ✌🏼❤️

Great information. Technically problematic

Honestly I really love the app. Great info and amazingly simple which is the main draw.

The only problem I have is that it goes to the complete edge of my screen so it’s hard to navigate with a screen protector. Honestly, framing it by an eighth of an inch would make this my favorite app, and I’m sure it affects other users as well.
