User Reviews

The app is praised for simplicity, language options, offline prayers, and customizable bells/reminders, with effective noon alerts. Repeated concerns include switching between Angelus and Regina Coeli, time-zone timing glitches, launch and alarm UI bugs, and occasional content issues; overall strong concept but several UX bugs affect consistency.
Pros
  • Simple, elegant app that serves as an accessible gateway to the Faith.
  • Straightforward, easy-to-use interface with language options and Latin when desired; prayers stored offline.
  • Customizable reminders and alarm times with optional church bells (three reminders).
  • Daily noon Angelus notifications help focus prayer; occasional automatic Regina Coeli during Easter is a plus for some.
  • Bells and offline access aid a reflective prayer routine without requiring internet.
Cons
  • Inconsistent or hidden option to switch between Angelus and Regina Caeli; Easter shifts to Regina Coeli without an easy way to revert.
  • Time zone issues: notifications can arrive too early or at wrong times when traveling across zones.
  • Angelus may fail to open on launch or bugs cause bells to ring during prayer.
  • Alarm/times settings are not intuitive; resetting times is hard and support is unresponsive.
  • Minor typos in prayers and in some cases a need for internet to pray with the Pope.

I love this app, but frustrated that it’s no longer Easter season and they haven’t switched back to the Angelus. Please fix this asap!!!!
