Disappointed/ 0 stars
This app was perfect before because it used to hold your place during the 30 day commitment so you always could pick up where you left off. The updated version shows a blank page where you have to remember the day you left off & enter it to get to the right place. Better off using the book. This app really has no purpose now. They need to fix it!! Several years later & nothing fixed. I recommend you use the book…..St Louis DeMontfort version. There are no good apps for this wonderful devotion as of yet although this one was good before they changed it.

Good and helpful but needs improvement
My wife and I just finished these prayers and the consecration. This app was helpful but there are several typos and the font size needs to be adjustable. It’s way too small for anyone who has eye problems, and even wearing reading glasses it was hard to read and frustrating.
Great App
This really is wonderful. It’s not a sophisticated app, and I had to look a bit to realize where the daily readings and prayers were, but once I figured that out, it was simple. Everything right there, word for word as in the book, without flipping pages. Thank you for this. AMDG
Update the app
Will anyone update the app? It doesn’t work at all. Very disappointing
App not working
I wanted to love this app but it keeps getting stuck on home page. Can’t advance through to other pages. I was looking for an app that would have the prayers and meditations in audio format but I don’t think this is an option in the current app.
The app is blank. Nothing comes up.
Nice picture on the home page. Every other page is blank.
Does Not Work
The app opens up and is blank!! Will not show anything! No prayers, no preparation, and zero dates. Every page I go to is white...Blank!! I cannot contact support...I’ve tried several times!!
Doesn’t work as expected - iPhone 7
Application doesn’t advance the dates on a daily basis after beginning the retreat. There are no option to setup the start date. It makes it difficult to follow if we forget the day which we are in.
Best app EVER
Saves souls!
Good app
Works just fine. I’m requesting an audio portion of these prayers please. Well presented app visually. If only there was audio. Besides that, highly recommend the loading.
Pretty, adequate, poor translations
I’ve looked at two other Total Consecration apps and they are all terribly compromised by the exact same bad translations of De Montfort, Thomas a Kempis, the Bible, and the prayers. My wife and I are gulping and going through it but the assistance from this application is weak.
Consecration
First day and already see need for correction. No contact in app to send suggestions. Home share button, load error when tapped. Veni Creator prayer third verse wrong lines 3&4. Should read:
The promise of the Father, Thou!
Who dost the tongue with power endow.
Also, where are the readings St. Louis gives in the book from Imitation of Christ?
This is a good effort and helpful in sorting out what to pray and do everyday of the 33 day consecration. Needs more work to be useful. Errors and missing elements distract from purpose of readying the mind and spirit.

Better available
I wanted to try this to compare to another app I had. That app uses very arcane language, rather than a more modern translation. The type was way too small with no way to enlarge so I have no idea how the wording of the prayers and meditations are handled. You can’t access the prayers. Only parts of the app work. There are better available

Text
Please expand text size, or give options for increasing text size manually. The text is so small on both phones and IPads that you need a magnifying glass to read.
Thanks
Thanks
Great and simple app
Just downloaded and started my preparation for renewing my consecration. Very easy app to figure out. The only thing that wasn't working was the prayers section. Otherwise a great app. Thanks.
Disappointed
I too was looking forward to using this app on my ipad for my total consecration; however, it no longer works after the initial download. It worked the first time I looked at it right after the download but once I need it to do the consecration, it does not pull up the plan or the settings. It does work on my iphone (for now). I am not changing the settings, notifications or anything on my iPhone app, just in case that caused the problem on the ipad so I can continue to use my iPhone for the consecration preparation.

Great try but some mistakes
I like this app, but it has several inaccuracies, so I can't rely on it entirely, I still have to use my Preparation book:
on some pages scrolling down won't stay.
Day 27 is counted in week 2, when it should be the start of week 3.
Week 3 should use St Louis de Montfort's prayer to Jesus, but instead continues using his prayer to Mary from Week 2. His prayer to Jesus isn't even listed in the prayers.
Week 2 should have "Recite the Rosary" at the end of the daily prayers, but it doesn't.
I'm just on day 30, so haven't finished to see if other things wrong, but you need to fix these to be accurate. and check everything else thoroughly. I'm sure I forgot some of the things that I found wrong on it. May Jesus and Mary be your guides as they are your Masters. God bless you in your work.

Thank you
I've only been using it a couple of days so far, but it's great. Does everything I'd want it to, and as I'd given my book of the consecration away, makes doing it very easy. God bless you.

This app is a wonderful opportunity for spreading devotion to Our Lady and consecrating our lives to Our Lord, Jesus Christ. Although I've done this consecration for a number of years, this is my first time using the app instead of my book. Just a few things: I've noticed some of the wording is different from the book; in the list of prayers, it is not possible to view the last two prayers because the page will not stay down when scrolled so the prayers can be selected by tapping them; the font is small and difficult to read, especially for us older folks. A larger font will be worth five stars! But this app is still a blessing, and I thank you, and will spread the word that it is available.
