### 3/5 — What’s with the indecent ads?

*2026-08-11, version 18.1.2*

I don’t mind having bar ads, especially on a free app, but I was surprised to see incredibly indecent Temu ads right next to my readings. The app itself is great but I can’t use it with those ads also on my screen.

### 3/5 — Check accuracy/writing

*2026-03-23, version 18.0.1*

I love this app so I can read the daily mass readings, as well as the information about the saint of the day. However, there are many misspellings, typographical errors, grammatical and sentence structure errors in the “saint of the day” section. Someone really needs to be proofreading before publishing...

### 5/5 — Catholic Liturgical Calendar

*2026-02-21, version 18.0.0*

I like the app, but it seems that some of the saints facts are mixed with the wrong person-Like St. Therese and others. I like this new version though I have never seen this new version before-the older version I didn’t mind, but it seems that these people are mixed up with the wrong person

### 5/5 — Correction Needed

*2026-02-15, version 17.0.1*

I have enjoyed this app for a long time.  I noticed that this week after Ash Wednesday the Thursday-Saturday are titled wrong.  Technically they are called Thursday of Ash Wednesday, Friday of Ash Wednesday, and Saturday of Ash Wednesday.  The days following the Sunday are of that week.  Such as the 1st Week of Lent, 2nd Week of Lent, and so on.  If in doubt just look at the USCCB and/or Vatican websites.  They are also listed correctly in the Liturgy of the Hours prayer books.

Thank you for your help in being the lantern that God wants to use to shine His light!

### 2/5 — Good content, bad adds that show

*2026-01-11, version 16.9.9*

The content of this app is great, simple and easy to use. By biggest concert is that pornographic adds pop up at the bottom. They are small and almost indiscernible but if you look at them you can tell. This is not appropriate for a Catholic app.

### 3/5 — Check accuracy/writing

*2026-01-08*

I love this app so I canread the daily mass readings, as well as the information about the saint of the day. However, there are many misspellings, typographical errors, grammatical and sentence structure errors in the “saint of the day” section. Someone really needs to be proofreading before publishing...

### 5/5 — Liturgical Calendar

*2025-09-12*

This is my favorite app because it notifies me about the feast days of the saints and gives me info about each individual saint

### 5/5 — Catholic

*2025-06-21*

This app is my favorite app and it notifies me at 6 am and it tells me who the saint is, for example St. Therese-awesome app 
I like the pics of the saints

### 5/5 — This app is excellent for busy Catholics.

*2025-03-09, version 16.0.0*

The Catholic Liturgical Calendar App is a straightforward and well-designed resource for anyone wanting to follow the Church’s calendar with ease. The app provides great content, including feast days, solemnities, and liturgical seasons, all laid out in an intuitive format.

It’s incredibly helpful throughout the liturgical year, whether you’re preparing for Mass, deepening your daily devotions, or simply staying connected to the rhythm of the Church. The clarity and simplicity of the app make it accessible for all users, and it’s a must-have for anyone looking to enhance their faith journey. Highly recommended!

### 4/5 — Update: They fixed the ads problem so it’s back to being a great app again!

*2025-02-05, version 16.0.0*

I’ve used this app for years. It was great. But recently they started posting ads that COVER THE CONTENT. There is now no way to use the app because even when you close the ad, the Google square remains. The app is now useless.
