Saints
There are beautiful descriptions of several saints but I was hoping to get a more comprehensive list of daily Saints. The app is missing quite a few like, St. Francis of Assisi Feast Day on Oct. 4. I’d appreciate more saints. I know there are many on each day!
Great App with background of some of the Saints
Great idea for the App. Love the Patronage part.
Still needs a lot of content with many more saints. Saint Francis of Assisi (My Saint) is missing. But love the idea !!! Thanks !!!

Cheesy rhyming poem prayers
The historical information about the saints is very good, but whoever wrote the poems to ask the saints to pray for us seems to make a mockery of the whole idea. They are corny and not sincere in any way. This would be a much better app if the poems were removed. Until then, I won’t use this app.
Lovely and timely app
Beautiful design, clear, informative stories of the saints, and prayers with contemporary relevance and a sense of humor. We all need more of these things - now more than ever. This is one app I'm always delighted and grateful to recieve a notification from.
Atrocious, Profane, Anti-Catholic
Imagine my horror when I opened up this putatively Catholic app to check out the feast day of St Rose of Lima. The revered Peruvian lady who was known for her humility and piety is depicted as a bizarre Kim Kardashian type, whose "prayer" opens with this:
O Blessed St Rose,
Each day I pray,
That I choose the right clothes,
And the finest hair spray.
Then it goes on to cite women's fashion mags, like Vogue and Glamour. My jaw dropped, and I am sure I am not alone.
I wonder if the artist, developer, and funders behind this app would do the same for any Muslim religious figure. Methinks, not. Somehow they think Catholicism can bear the brunt of being modernised to the point of profanity. Add my voice to those who demand of Apple to remove this insulting app from the iTunes Store.
