Saint of the Day App Reviews

53 add

A lovely saint app

It would be made all the better with the addition of prayers to saints under their patronage. And better still with the addition of images of saints such as one finds on prayer cards. Would also be improved by not requiring an internet connection Certainly the nicest looking saint app. Well written with much less hagiography than the other saint a day app

Needs copy option

Very good app but it would be nice if the comment or quote portion at the bottom could also be copied.

Bigger print

Please make it possible to make a bigger print. I have poor eyesight, so I find it extremely hard to read it

No Longer Works

I used to love this app, but it hasnt worked for ages. I have been waiting for an update to fix the problem but it hasnt come. The app comes up and all I get is "Franciscan Media, Live in love, Grow in faith, Syncing Saints..." and a little circle going round and round and round. It has been like this for months. I think you will be upset if you buy an app that doesnt work! (I write this in the hope of prompting Franciscan Media to either fix the app so I can use it or withdraw it so I will stop waiting.)

Work in progress

I really liked the Web version, but the app seems to have replaced that (although the content appears to be the same). I agree with others that text is hard to read against grey background. Still, it provides one of a kind daily information that helps familiarize you with our friends and holy examples in the Church Triumphant. I hope and expect this app will be updated accordingly.

A complete reference with multimedia options!

I love this app that allows me to listen to short bios of the saints each day. If I want more, the text contains even more info! I can share the daily bios on my social networks and even find more resources if I want them. Well done.

Great App

Thanks for fixing this app! Ive missed it.

Saint of the Day

Great app. Thought it might never be updated so the new version is a blessing; thank you. In a future tweak, please provide a way for a choice of larger font sizes to be applied. Present font is very small and light and difficult to read.

Really good app!

Could use a little more meat in the bios and maybe some quotes please :)

Give me the old version

Give me The old version. Im all about updating what your new version takes away the character of the foundation of the program.

Alleluia!

Thanks be to God youre back! For a long time SOD kept crashing on my IPad, and I really have missed it. The new version is great - just one suggestion: could you darken a little more the text to make for easier reading- especially for older eyes? Peace and blessings - and thanks again for this important ministry! Dennis Berry, ST

I love this app

I used the previous version nearly every day. It didnt work for a while and I tried looking for a new one, though unsuccessful. I am happy to have this back on my phone. It is my first app I open in the morning to begin morning prayers. Great Job!!

Love it

Love this app. I had the old version and it kept crashing. I kept trying to re-download and I finally got the new one! Im so happy to have it again. It completes my day and keeps me focused on how to be a better person

New v Old

Has many improvements on the old App, although the search function is still awkward. I am glad it is functional again, I have missed it!

GOOD READING

Like most Franciscan endeavors, it is professional and a pleasing to the eye. It is very interesting to read, weather from a secular, historical point of view or from the viewpoint of a true believer.

Wonderful!

Great tool for learning about our Saints. So often, I find a tidbit that helps me focus improvement and growth for that day. Very helpful!

Much Improved

The former version barely worked with the current iOS, but now its wonderful.

Incredible App!

This app is so great! It has helped me to live as authentic a faith as I can in a human, fallen world. Through the lives of the Saints, I have inspiration and motivation to love as intentionally for Christ as I can. Thank you, Franciscan Media!

Catholic daily app

Great new screen design. Optimized for new screens. The daily email and app are the same but show daily Saint of the day story including the audio. Gorgeous that you have story of Saint and prayers and quotes with daily Saint.

Nice upgrade, but...

Id like to see at the very beginning a very brief outline of the life of the saint, especially their birth and death dates and what city AND country theyre from. Sometimes I think its taken for granted that everyone knows in which country a city resides. This is a major flaw in the Liturgy of the Hours, but can be clarified here. Other than that, thanks for a wonderful aid to knowledge of the saints!
