### 3/5 — Good

*2026-08-19, version 3.01*

I gave this app 5 stars for being one of the best Catholic apps out there. It’s is highly
Useful!

However the daily readings never seem to be the correct anymore. I did email the creator but no fix so far, hoping one day it will be 😊

Useful for prayers and other things.

### 4/5 — New Pope

*2026-07-21, version 2.99*

I love this app and use it mainly for the daily readings of both the new mass and the Latin mass. I have been trying to contact the developer for a while concerning a mistake in the canon of the Latin mass. We have a new pope. It is no longer Francis. Perhaps it would be best to remove his name from the reading and no longer put a name there, like you do for bishops.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-10, version 2.99*

I love this app for reference, prayers and to prepare for confession!  There is so much more it offers also.

### 5/5 — The OG Catholic Pray App

*2026-06-06, version 2.99*

I like it because it’s so simple. It’s always got what I need.

### 5/5 — Best app!

*2026-06-05, version 2.99*

Thank you, Lord for sending that kind soul at church to teach me about this app. It’s been a lifesaver! 🙏💙💕

### 5/5 — A wonderful resource

*2026-06-01, version 2.99*

So many Rosaries, Masses, and prayers. It’s all here, plus the Divine Office!

### 3/5 — Layout

*2026-05-16, version 2.97*

If you could fix the layout in daily Bible verse that would be great

### 4/5 — Love it but….

*2026-04-12, version 2.96*

I love this app but I hope 
Highlighting could be a thing because it would make bible studying better for me thank you!

### 5/5 — Excelente app!!!

*2026-04-10, version 2.96*

One of the best free católicas apps

### 5/5 — actually the best app

*2026-04-02, version 2.96*

this app has helped me in so many ways. there is an interactive rosary, so many prayers, mass livestreams, the entire bible, and so much more. this has just about everything you need to help you while converting to catholicism in a little app. it’s amazing!!! no in app purchases, no ads from what i’ve found. i use this app every single day. may God bless the developers for making this app.

### 5/5 — Wonderful Way to Start the Day

*2026-03-26, version 2.96*

I use this app the first thing every morning to help me with praying and reading about the saints. It’s a great resource for everything that happens during the day as well.

### 5/5 — LAUDATE App

*2026-03-20, version 2.96*

This is the best app a Christian person can download onto their mobiles. I find it really comforting to have prayer at my fingertips! An easy to read listen anywhere prayer conduit to God! Highly recommend. The confessions are thought provoking insightful and beautifully written and perfect to make a meaningful reconciliation.

### 5/5 — The Swiss Army knife for the Catholic

*2026-03-09, version 2.96*

If you're looking for that all-in-one app as a Catholic, then this is it. It's completely free and draws from sources that truly honor the Catholic faith. As a beginner exploring the Catholic faith, it can be incredibly confusing. Although this app is fantastic, I would also recommend using it alongside other resources to fully understand Catholic ideas. Nonetheless, definitely have this app ready, even if you're just starting, because it will be useful. If I had to pick one app to use, it would be this one.

### 5/5 — Love Love Love

*2026-03-09, version 2.96*

The more I use it, the more I appreciate it.

### 5/5 — So helpful for TLM

*2026-02-24, version 2.96*

This can be used as a substitute for the 1962 missal. It reads perfectly with the mass in order. Where is the donate button for this app???!

### 5/5 — Best Catholic app

*2026-02-23, version 2.96*

If you’re an active Catholic than you need to download this app. That’s all. The best one by far in existence.

### 5/5 — Simple but the best!

*2026-02-12, version 2.96*

I’ve tried every Catholic app out there, but I always come back to Laudate. It doesn’t have the bells and whistles, the celebrities and the great visuals, but functions as a sort of unobtrusive doorway into a huge collection of prayers, the Saints, the Hours, Scripture and commentary, and Masses. Thank you to all those involved in creating Laudate!

### 5/5 — The Best App

*2026-02-12, version 2.96*

This app has everything, interactive rosary and chaplets, many prayers, confession guide, examen, and so much more.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I love this app, but…

*2026-03-04, version 2.96*

I tried to download it again after not having it for a year. When I did, I couldn’t access a lot of the features- daily prayer, Vatican documents, etc. I really want to use it again, I hope it gets resolved soon.

### 1/5 — VERY disappointed

*2026-02-17, version 2.96*

I started using this app a few months ago but I can no longer use it because of the AI slop they have started to use. There are all sorts of ethical dilemmas that the developer should be aware of that go along with ai. Also ive seen some other people post some stuff about the app having blasphemous stuff on the daily verse option. I am very disappointed:(( ☹️

### 1/5 — The Latin mass translation went away

*2026-01-13, version 2.96*

Just have Latin prayers not the mass

### 1/5 — Racism

*2025-12-26, version 2.96*

On today’s video reflections. The commentator spoke of December 26 as the holiday of Kwanza. 
Kwanza is a racist holiday invented by racist communist professor at Long Beach State College.  This professor also attempted to murder his wife by forcing her to drink acid. 
I would think someone at your organization would check things like this out. 
Kwanza is just a hodgepodge of things that are”African”? A continent of a 100 different countries and a 100 different language’s and cultures. 
All made up to sell Socialism and/or communism.

### 1/5 — Interactive Rosary

*2025-12-24, version 2.96*

May I recommend you take a picture of a better rosary so your dots land on the exact spot, especially between decades and conclusion.

### 1/5 — Liturgy of hours

*2025-11-01, version 2.93*

Doesn’t show anything

### 1/5 — Privacy notice won’t go away

*2025-10-07, version 2.93*

This was the best app for daily readings, prayers and reflection, BUT, now there’s a usccb privacy notice that takes up a fourth of the phone screen 
Time to find a different app

### 1/5 — Outdated information in podcast of Christian Peskin Rosary

*2025-07-12, version 2.93*

Pope Francis is dead. We have a new pope. You either need to take Christian Peskin off or find someone that at least will ask us to pray for the current pope. Nothing has changed since Pope Benedict has died. Take care of your business or you will lose a subscriber.

### 1/5 — Español

*2025-03-02, version 2.93*

Porque no puedo abrir la lecturas y las reflexiones de hoy en Español en USCCB

### 1/5 — Can’t open app on iPhone 16 pro

*2025-01-27, version 2.93*

The app stopped opening this week. I have had the app for yrs 
And this week starts to open and shuts down - need help 
Use this app everyday !

### 5/5 — Highly Recommended

*2026-08-23, version 3.01*

Excellent resource for those who sometimes feel list in mass (order of mass, the proper responses, prayers)

### 5/5 — God Bless you

*2026-08-15, version 3.01*

Thank you so much

### 5/5 — A must download

*2026-08-10, version 2.99*

This is a fantastic app. I’ve deleted social media and I’m using this to replace it and deepen my faith. It’s a wonderful, wonderful resource. I’ve only had it for a day and I’ve already told 5 people about it!

### 5/5 — Must have for modern Catholics

*2026-07-27, version 2.99*

Timeless app for iOS users, offering extensive material support and updates for practicing and studying Catholicism.

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-07-22, version 2.99*

I am so happy that our leader for ocia showed this to the group.  It is the bbbbbbest!!!

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2026-07-21, version 2.99*

Thank you kindly for sharing such a beautiful app. I truly appreciate the fact there is no data collected. Most of all I love the amount of content. So many prayers, including so much Latin, daily prayers, reflections, masses…I can’t imagine any Catholic giving this less that 5 stars. I hope that all involved have some plenary indulgences coming haha.

### 5/5 — Very fun!!

*2026-07-14, version 2.99*

My favorite is the scriptural rosary it's very quick even though he is going through Bible verses and I love the part when we pray "for the instentions Pope Benedict XVI" 😂 I beg you NEVER EVER update that it gets me every time. Only problem is the interactive rosary is tedious and you cant skip to different mysteries other than that it's GREAT I also reccomend the confession feature, I hope they aren't like selling your data when you actually did something bad but probably not I HAVE NO IDEA but don't worry about it ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧

### 5/5 — God bless this app

*2026-07-12, version 2.99*

Thank you for all you did! I've been using this app since I came to the US five years ago for my mass reading guide. I believe this deserves a five star because of the informations keeps me abreast of my Catholic faith. May your efforts bear fruits and continue to  grow in the years to come. Mizpah!

### 5/5 — The ONE Catholic APP You’ll Ever Need

*2026-07-01, version 2.99*

I love this APP. It has everything concerning the Catholic Church. Give it a try! It’s a wonderful APP.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2026-06-27, version 2.99*

I really enjoy what this app has to offer! I don’t do much reviews unless it’s really good and helpful! It has outstanding resources all for free! I truly recommend! May the person that reads this be blessed by the grace of Jesus🙏🏻
