Unable To Proceed Past Setting My Last Confession Date (New user)

I am sure this app isn’t worth 1 stars, but I am unable to get past the initial setup on my iPhone SE 2, :( I had such high hopes for this app as I already loved the app screenshots & reviews, but no matter what accessibility feature I toggle (Zoom, Assistive Touch, Gestures, Tiny Text*, Etcetera), I don’t see any next/enter/proceed button for me to be able to move past setting when my last confession date was. I hated to have to remove this app. Does anyone else have this issue with iPhone SE 2 (or any other tiny/mini iPhone model?) Any fixes, cause this techie is stumped! — Dear Developers, I have a screen recording of this rare issue if there’s anywhere for me to send it! I’d be more than happy to share this! :) Thanks!

Not free, and not confident it’s private

I couldn’t use the app in any function unless I signed up for a paid subscription. Thankfully there was a free trial so I saw what the app looks like, but I immediately canceled my subscription.

My Review

I enjoy the idea of this journaling app, only thing I am seeing is that the system doesn’t seem to be as accurate determining if my sin is venial or mortal, I placed skipped mass as a test and it kept placing as venial. If you can get it to be as accurate I would continue the subscription.

Good but could be better

olid tool for regular confession prep. Wish it had dark mode but still very useful.

Helps me stay consistent

I use it weekly before confession. Tracks my progress nicely. Simple and no distractions.
