Thoughtful, Useful, and Continually Improving
I’ve really come to appreciate this app, both for what it does and for how responsive the developers have been to feedback.
What I find most helpful is the way the app takes my notes and helps summarize them into a clear, concise format for Confession. It helps me examine what I need to confess beforehand and then simply state my sins clearly when I’m there—rather than turning Confession into a therapy session.
The recent update made an already useful app even better. It now includes a password reset option, a Daily Examen, the ability to identify sins as mortal or venial, and a prayer library. I had previously contacted the developers about the lack of a password reset option, so I especially appreciate seeing that addressed.
It’s a thoughtful app that helps me prepare for the sacrament, stay focused during Confession, and continue reflecting afterward. I also appreciate that the developers seem genuinely interested in improving the app based on user feedback. Highly recommend!

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.
Response from developer
Thank you for the thoughtful feedback — accuracy matters deeply to us. You're right that skipping Mass is grave matter, and we're updating the classification. One note on our approach: because a sin is only mortal when grave matter is joined with full knowledge and deliberate consent, the app can't declare any act mortal for a specific person — so we'll label it "grave matter (potentially mortal)" and always point users to a priest for their situation. The fix is on the way, and we hope you'll stick with us.
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.
Worth downloading
Helps me track my spiritual life. A few small bugs but overall a very good Catholic app.
Saw a kid use this in church
I am boomer like they call it but the new kids knows the lord.
Spporting an Indie Catholic app studio
Kudos to the team! Good job and good luck with the mission. God bless.
Not free
Couldn’t get the free trial to work, so I don’t know if I like the app and want to pay. Ended up deleting it since there was no way to use the app at any level without paying.
Love it but can be better
Include prayers in the app and its perfect
Have to make an account
I didn’t get past the beginning because you have to make an account.
I didn’t like that and so deleted the app, I dont want my information being saved somewhere outside of my phone.
