Pros and cons of iPieta app for iPhone and iPad
iPieta app good for
Thank you for this beautiful app, which as a priest, Im using everyday both on iphone and ipad.
The only thing Id suggest you add is the Code of Canon Law.
Please keep up the good work updating the program with new texts, books and prayers.
i use this one every day the audios are very well done. Unbelievable how much you get for that price these guys are realy interested in serving the Church and getting the message across not just in making money as many of the other catholic apps. Interface super and the developer has put a lot of love and time into little treats like iCloud and a search function that kicks ass. Even has the office of Mary and st.montforts total consecration with audio, crazy. Lots of klassik books enough for years of reading. You basically got a hole catholic library on your phone and can listen to prayers and the bible while you go out running or something.
This is a treasure trove, a library, a prayer book, a vademecum and study guide, a calendar of the readings for novus ordo and traditional Latin mass....just incredible. I would buy an iPad just to have this
Comprehensive from the translation of the Bible itself to commentaries, prayers, holy days and books from the church fathers. Absolutely five stars. Should be something every Catholic has at their fingertips.
There is so much contained in the app; make it your go to tool in growing in Sanctity and understanding of the Faith!
Some bad moments
I have a 128 GB iPad 4 running iOS . Hen I try to install the most recent update (as of 23 or 24 September 2016), I am told that it cant be installed: "Cannot download. This app is not compatible with your device." Im writing this in a review because the support link in the iTunes entry for iPieta takes me to the product website, where I cant find anything about reporting a problem.
Perhaps the developers could (a) fix the problem with the install, (b) add problem reporting to the website, and (c) say in the notes what the minimum hardware version is for this level of code. It wouldnt hurt if there were some contact information on the website, too, for situations such as this.
iPad 4 is supported by iOS 10; why wouldnt iPieta continue to support it?
iPieta is no longer compatible with iPhone 6s or iOS 10. This was on September 25, 2016. I am sure this is a bug that can be fixed.
