Great Idea But No In Between

I love the layout of this app and everything but the main part—Confession Guide—is either way too thorough or not helpful.

The thorough guide is 269 questions long with a lot of repeated questions, this leads to a confession list that is 3x longer than it should be.

They’re not grouped together either so you might have missed Mass on there at the beginning, the middle, and the end of your list, which means you’re repeating yourself during confession.

The daily/general guide, on the other hand, is a literal check list of vague questions that can’t be added to the confessional list.

I feel like if the thorough guide could condense the similar answers together that would be very helpful, and/or split the thorough guide into married/single/religious life guides, it would be very beneficial.

I felt some of the questions were more for those dedicated to religious life (I.e. did you pray an act of faith daily, did you think of the poor today, did you pray an act of hope, did you make a sacrifice for someone today). These don’t feel like questions for the laity to confess.
