iMissal Catholic

Prior to the updates in the last month, each Sunday mass order provided the most likely Eucharistic Prayer to be used for the mass, but the other three were still available. After the updates, only the most likely Eucharistic Prayer is provided along with the following note, “Below is the Eucharistic Prayer typically said for this Mass, however, the Priest has the option to chose another.” This makes the missal much less useful, since I purchased app so that I had all four Eucharistic Prayers available. That is no longer the case, so the app is largely useless to me. It’s very disappointing that the “update” has ruined the app.

Love this app. However today was my first time staying home sick while using the app to follow along with mass livestream. There were several parts of the mass that were missing, including responses. I encourage the developers to follow along with mass to discover all that’s missing, including what the priest is saying and congregation responses. Previous version of app was 5 stars. … Also, since all churches are required to pray for vocations at the end of mass, please consider adding that prayer at the end of mass, so participation is easy. It takes too long to find it in my photos (unless I think ahead before mass and remember to pull it up first).

Recent update broke things, I contacted the developers several times by e-mail and FB I never got an answer; very frustrating being totally ignored. Since iMissal v5.1 (6) in both iOS 18.7.7 and 26.4.x I have noticed: 1) The option "Full version (No Notes)" stopped displaying the section “Eucharist Prayer x”. While the "Full version (with Notes)" displays it correctly the "Full version (No Notes)" is more useful for those following mass without having the notes cluttering the whole text. The now missing "Eucharist Prayer x" in the “No notes” option” is very noticeable. 2) Both, "Full version (No Notes)" and "Full version (With Notes)"stopped letting the user switch between the different "Eucharist Prayer I, II, III, IV". Previous version allowed this by sweeping top down to choose the Eucharist Prayer when needing a number different than the default. This is very useful as most priests sometimes depart from the default. 3) now the updated app removes/hides the Status Bar blocking valuable information from the phone. Sad to see a sloppy update just to make the app work on iOS 26 even when breaking functionality.
