iPieta

I would wish to speak to anyone, who might be reading through these reviews, while considering the purchase of this app: DO NOT MISS THE AMAZINGLY GENEROUS AMOUNT OF MATERIAL, MADE AVAILABLE FOR US, BY THE DEVELOPERS OF THIS APPLICATION! After 30+ years as a Reformed Protestant, I have, for the last 10 months, been a student of the Doctrine and Teachings, of the Catholic Church. To my delight and surprise, the apps I've found for the iPhone, relating to that study, have provided a stunning amount of supplemental resources, in support of my RCIA process. To anyone who carries a desire, in their heart and mind, to have their Faith, better formed within them--do not hesitate to make the purchase of this app, towards that end. And may I say, to the developers, by means of your labor, you are contributing to the changes His Spirit makes, in the hearts of men. For it is only as Faith is formed, that freedom is won, hearts are lifted, and minds are made able to receive wisdom and understanding, leaving individuals, marriages, and families, forever changed. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the contribution you have made to my journey of Faith. May Our Lord bless you, and your families.

I used to buy the Pieta Book by the case to give out to friends and family and to leave in the church Narthex for other parishioners, but when I got poor, I had to stop that practice. This app is even better than the book!!! I have loved it for as long as it’s been available (and the Pieta Book for over a quarter century)!!! It may seem a tad expensive for an app, but I assure you it is well worth every penny!!! God willing I’ll get caught up financially someday and be able to distribute the book again. I promise you...this app is the best if you want a more prayerful life!!! Those who feel they’ve been overlooked by the Lord...try some of the prayers this app has to offer. I can honestly say I have seen the workings of Our Lord in my life as a result of the prayers in this app. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!!! Pay particular attention to the prayers of St Bridget and the promises attached!!!! May God Bless you all!!!

I never read the Bible but this app takes care of that by allowing you to make use of it wherever you are. I went to the app tonight while searching for comfort and understanding about my daughter who is suffering from severe depression. With this app, support of your faith is on demand. I should only use it more. In this world where fewer people practice their faith and modern culture is influencing values, I believe the lord works in ways like this app to reach out to us. Never before has any kind of information been so accessible. There’s even an app called Mass Times which makes finding a church and mass easy wherever you are in the world! As a side note, I am editing this review after writing the first paragraph over a year ago. When I looked up the app to send to my daughter, I had forgotten I wrote that review. It’s well over a year and many prayers later that I write this updated review with the blessed news that my daughter is doing well after deciding to seek help. When I learned that she is praying daily, I thought that I’d send her this app to help her. Her recovery has strengthened my faith for which this app has been such a convenient help. With all my heart I believe my prayers have been answered and for that I am forever grateful. The lord certainly works in mysterious ways!

This is simply the best app that I have installed on my phone by a long shot. The resources it contains seems unending. Complete bibles, bible commentaries, libraries from the great doctors of the church, important documents from papal authorities, a large selection of prayers, daily mass readings, etc... There are reminders and search tools that can be utilized to help with your prayer life. They are actively improving the app to provide more content and features with each update, as well as keeping up with the changes in iOS versions.

I have had this app for years and when I first got it I gave it five stars. And in that time they have improved it and added features several times. It's even better than ever now with the newest update. You can tell this wasn't just a project for them. This was a work of love. There are so many resources available on this app that I can't going to all of them here. I use this app every single day.
