### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPad Pro 12.9” 2020

*2020-05-26*

I have this app working on my iPhone but can’t it to get to work on my iPad Pro.
When I open the app all I get is a blank white screen.  If I rotate the iPad the white screen seems to rotate too (ie change orientation) but there is no detail on screen.

### 5/5 — Thanks for this app

*2018-08-18*

As a shift worker newly moved to Western Sydney, I was finding it hard to find a Sunday mass that I could feasibly attend. It seemed that the vast majority of Sunday masses out here fit into the family friendly hours between 8am and 6pm, mass times that are incredibly difficult to attend when you’re a shift worker. 
Imagine my delight in finding out, with the aid of this app, that there was a 7am Sunday mass, just down the road from the hospital I work at. I’ve also found other options for mass, confession and adoration that match up with the various shifts I’m required to work. 
Thank you for making this easy to use app and helping me make it to mass. Love your work!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your feedback, our aim is to connect people to the mass and other sacraments in a quick and simple way, so reading your review has given us much joy! Please share this app with your friends, so more people can benefit from it.

### 5/5 — Fantastic App

### 3/5 — Useful, but

*2017-12-23*

... the purported live links don’t work.
