### 4/5 — Solid

*2025-11-04, version 7.0.1*

A great resource for quick-grab reference to the daily readings and celebrations, especially as they don’t normally appear in general calendar settings. 
I would love to see the app forecast the calendar- enabling you to look past December into the next calendar year.

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2025-10-10, version 7.0.1*

Its a decent enough widget that does what it does, but information regarding the Saints seems limited.  In the preview images on the Appstore Page, there is an image that says "read a short summary of the saints".  When I go into the App, Ill tap on the Saint, and nothing happens.  Ill tap on the "Book" icon on the bottom, and a context menu for the readings of the day will pop up, but again, no summary or information on the Saint.

Perhaps I am using it wrong!  Otherwise, it is useful, just not in the way I had hoped!

### 5/5 — Catholic Liturgical Calendar

*2025-02-20, version 7.0.1*

It’s well organized so that I know when certain holidays, solemnities-even the feasts of the saints start to happen

### 5/5 — Prepare for daily mass

*2025-01-26, version 7.0.1*

Saints feast day / solemnity either big M or little m or regular day of the mass to let me know each day.

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2025-01-13, version 7.0.1*

The daily readings and the ones for the optional feasts are so helpful. And I love the widgets!! Have them on my phone and laptop

### 4/5 — Broken (fixed)

*2024-12-05, version 7.0.1*

The latest update broke the app. It no longer downloads the calendar. Error message. Crash

Update:

The developer contacted me—a very good sign of support—and fixed the issue quickly. 

The app is basic. I wished it at least offered the Saint of the Day

### 3/5 — No saint Biography

*2024-07-23, version 6.10*

It says you can see the saints Biography but I only see thee Mass readings. It would be nice if it included their Bio.

### 5/5 — Must have for Catholics

*2024-01-04, version 6.3.1*

I’ve used this app for years and it has really helped me to live within the rhythm of the liturgical year.

### 4/5 — Great App for Phone

*2024-01-02*

This is an awesome app with lots of cool information about the Liturgical Calendar! I love the widget which lets me check the feast every morning right away!

### 5/5 — Bug issue

*2023-12-28, version 6.2*

I love this app but it won’t open anymore. Please fix this!!

### 5/5 — Every Catholic should have it!

*2023-12-27, version 6.2*

This app itself is very simple and easy to use. But what I love the most is the Lock Screen widget. When I pick up my phone in the morning I can see what day it is right away. Love it!

### 5/5 — App won’t open anymore

*2023-12-23, version 6.2*

I love this app it just stopped opening this past week. It seems to crash every time I open it. Support please help!!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2023-12-19, version 6.2*

Awesome app. Really useful for the readings for those of us who can’t make mass everyday. 

Sadly the last update seems to have broken it. I open the app and it shuts itself down. I’ve deleted, restarted, and re-downloaded a few times now. Just going to wait for the next update and hope it fixes it.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Download

*2026-02-28, version 7.4.1*

I keep getting in the error, trying to download the calendar

### 1/5 — It’s broken

*2026-02-22, version 7.4.1*

App is broken, continues trying to “download calendar” but fails and claims it’s an internet problem. Issue also happens on my IPad, definitely a problem with the app.

### 1/5 — No user modification

*2024-01-06, version 6.3.1*

The text size doesn’t increase making it a pain to use.

Developer: You replied to my rating asking where this occurs. Allow me to try to explain better. 

The mass readings do not have an option to increase font size. They are small and difficult to read. After the recent update this remains a problem.

### 1/5 — Still crashing on launch

*2023-12-30*

The app is still crashing on launch.

**Developer response:** Hi there! So sorry that you're seeing this crash. I found the root of this issue and I'm sending  Version 6.3.1 to the Apple now! Once they review, (about 24 hours) you should see a new version available.

If you don't mind, please send me an email if it's still now working, info@jokenge.com.

If it's fixed, I'd love if you could update this review. Low reviews like this demote the app in the App Store ranking, and make the app harder to find for fellow Catholics.

### 1/5 — No user modification

*2023-12-10*

The text size doesn’t increase making it a pain to use.

**Developer response:** Is there a particular screen that you’re having trouble with font size on? The app should follow your device’s font size, except for a couple of screens: Colors Explanation + Celebration Summaries

### 1/5 — Spanish

*2021-02-03, version 2.0.1*

I can not get the app in Spanish ....no good

### 2/5 — Great App for Phone

*2024-08-25, version 6.10*

This is an awesome app with lots of cool information about the Liturgical Calendar! I love the widget which lets me check the feast every morning right away! I am disappointed though that the watch complication has stopped working as of a few months ago - that was my favorite feature!

### 2/5 — Does not connect to Calendar

*2023-09-23, version 5*

I’m trying to find a good Catholic calendar app to connect to my apple calendar. This would be great, but it does not sync. They really should add this functionality.

### 2/5 — New month Apple Watch

*2021-09-03, version 2.1*

Whenever a new month begins, it doesn’t update on my Apple Watch.

### 3/5 — Things to Fix

*2025-08-28, version 7.0.1*

(1) put the day of the week next to the day of the month on the home screen. 
(2) put “holy day of obligations’ on your calendar, so that, when i look at the month as a whole, i know which days are holy days of obligation.

### 5/5 — Fabulous

*2026-07-29, version 7.8.0*

This app is so easy to use for daily readings. It goes right to the day on the open tab. I’ve looked for an easy way for daily readings. I am avid about keeping up with the liturgical year. One of the best things of the Catholic Church

### 5/5 — PERFECT APP

*2026-07-28, version 7.8.0*

This is my favorite app for Saints feast & mass readings! easy to use, color-coded, & perfect for someone new to the faith. So glad I found this app as a convert🙏🏼

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-06-16, version 7.5*

Such a perfect design.
I love how easy it is to find the daily readings and the alternate readings for each feast day. I especially like the option to learn about the lives of the saints on their given feast day. It has been very fruitful in my journey entering the Church!

Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2026-05-02, version 7.4.2*

Overall very happy with the app. I use it primarily with the Apple Watch. It’s a bit buggy when it comes to refreshing the feast days but haven’t found anything better. Many thanks to the developers

### 5/5 — So useful

*2026-04-02, version 7.4.2*

Are you always wondering which dates are obligatory look no further this app tell you all you need to know.

### 5/5 — Thanksgiving

*2026-02-13, version 7.4.1*

The Liturgy connects Catholics with each other all throughout the world. Never have I felt so connected and blessed to partake in an app (Besides Hallow and Ascension), the app is my primary means of reading the liturgy. Many apps have the liturgy however I believe this app does it best. Thank you to the people responsible for sharing; May God bless you abundantly!!!

### 5/5 — Best liturgical app

*2025-10-27, version 7.0.1*

I love this app! It gives not only the daily mass readings but also memorials of the saints! 🫶🏻

### 5/5 — I enjoy reading the mass every day

*2025-09-28, version 7.0.1*

Wonderful

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2025-07-02, version 7.0.1*

This app is great for staying in line with feasts and solemnities. I love the widgets as well. I hope that eventually the app will expand to the other Rites of the Catholic Church!

### 5/5 — Review

*2025-03-07, version 7.0.1*

This app has helped me prepare for mass, lent, and feast days. Id recomend!!!
