Great app!! It seems good that you added a section on indigenous tribes. I haven’t fully looked through.. I’m going it’s respectful & meant to help with reconciliation. However, the term “Indian” is outdated and inappropriate. “Indigenous Peoples” is a better term/title for that section.

Where are they?

There must be something I don’t understand about using this app on an iPhone 11 Pro. I tried to look up St. Ignatius of Loyola, then St. Augustine, then St. Thomas Aquinas by typing their names into “Search.” All I got were articles that referred to them somewhere in the content of the article. I never found a main article about them. They were not even in an alphabetical list of hundreds of other saints.

Flaw

iPhone Xs using latest update, once an article is opened you are not able to back out as the Back Button is in the upper left corner mixed w the apple “time”.
Can only swipe to next article or close whole app.
Please fix thanks.

Cannot redownload

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Incomplete

It has potential. I was looking for my Founder and for a few other more contemporary and prominent men and women of the church but I didn't find them! Blessed John Baptist Scalabrini (Proclaimed patron of migrants together with mother Cabrini by John Paul II) is missing. Why?
It seems to me that this app, good as it could be, is not "universal" enough to deserve the title "Catholic".
