Review summary

Users appreciate Everyday Faith for its simple, approachable daily devotional content and privacy-respecting design, making it a useful tool for spiritual reflection. However, multiple reviews highlight significant app stability issues including frequent crashes and audio malfunctions, lack of offline content access, frustrating navigation limitations, and persistent notification prompts. These technical drawbacks are the primary barriers to a fully satisfying user experience.

Pros

The app provides accessible and straightforward daily spiritual guidance suitable for both newcomers and regular churchgoers.
Content is generally appreciated for being simple, uplifting, and a helpful tool for daily prayer and reflection.
The app respects user privacy by not requiring personal information or excessive permissions.
The app is considered a good resource especially for those unable to attend church and seeking private contemplation.
Users find the app to be a positive introduction to daily devotional practices with easy-to-understand theology.

Cons

The app frequently crashes or fails to load properly, causing frustration and requiring re-installation.
Audio functionality is unreliable, often not playing or stopping unexpectedly, which diminishes usability.
The app lacks offline access, forcing users to have an internet connection every day to download content, which can be problematic during travel or connectivity issues.
Navigation issues are common; users cannot go back to previous days' reflections and missing days reset streak counters.
Persistent notifications and prompts for enabling notifications are considered annoying and intrusive by many users.

2025-01-29	Bo*****	Great app ... four stars because it occasionally crashes. Accessible content for someone fairly new to this as I am. Enjoying the reading every morning.

2025-01-13	Ka*****	This is the 3rd time I have downloaded this app. It crashes, saying there has been an error, please retry but you can't. It's a great and helpful idea, the content is good, I really like it but the actual app needs work.

2025-01-11	Da*****	The days content can sometimes take a few minutes to download, and even get stuck in a loop Not really acceptable for such a small amount of data

2025-01-07	Li*****	It is not the content I have the problem with, but the App itself. Every so often it won't download and I have to uninstall it and then re-install it. At first it was weeks apart, more recently it was 4 days. It is very wearing. I am not sure how long I can persist.

2025-01-07	Hi*****	daily spiritual guidance 🙏 ✨️ I'm unable to go to a church. so gives me an opportunity to spend time in private contemplation. 😌 My only criticism is that if you miss a day. Then your daily attendance count is lost. So next days count starts again! ( even if I do to read the missing day. That won't be included in ones daily continued count. That's disappointing! Please God guide E. F. to rectify this problem?

2024-12-29	Sa*****	Doesn't work on tablet or phone - all previous. C of E apps I've used ( including the Easter one this year ) have so not sure why this one doesn't. Have tried uninstalling and installing again several times. On the tablet I get very large versions of the two introductory pages and can't go any further. On the phone I get the title page and nothing more. Dec 24 I have tried reinstalling it several times and for some reason it still doesn't work sadly.

2024-12-15	Fa*****	I enjoy this app but am saddened you can't go back to past reflections if you've missed them and forgotten to save them, which is so easily done. I was without Internet for a week and so missed out on the entirety of week 2 and have no way of hearing them now :/

2024-12-07	Ka*****	It's commendable that the CofE has reached out with this app, and I feel the content is appropriate for both regulars and non-churchgoers. But, it's frustratingly difficult if you need to navigate back a day or so.

2024-11-30	Ti*****	The app is simple and easy to use...no information is required...no name, email, credit card, nothing!! They only ask you enable cookies! Refreshing foe and app to not require all permissions and know my grandchildren blood types (that last bit was hyperbolic).

2024-11-26	Ni*****	Really nicely done. Only stopping at 4* as I would love to have a share button implemented so I can easily share either the app as a whole or individual reflections #sharingasevangelism (or am I missing something?)
