Feedback from 3-Minute Retreaters:
The 3-Minute Retreat is the BEST way to start my day. Patricia
Some days 3 minutes is all I have for me. There is no better way to start my mind thinking and praising God for all the good he has done in my life. Jackie
More often than not, they seem to have been written just for me, where I am, right now! Anne
I love the 3-Minute Retreat because it centers my day on what is true, real, and life-giving. Derrell
No matter what time of day I read it...it is the best 3 minutes of my day. Adela
I have the 3-Minute Retreat app and it’s a great way to slow down, reflect on something deeper, and prepare for the day before delving into the emails and tasks of the day. The app is incredibly handy with lovely graphics and music to transport you. Kamaria It is a little oasis of peace in my day – a chance to rejoice in the silence and refresh the heart and the soul.

THE app for busy people who want to develop their faith but don't have a lot of time. (Mothers and fathers of the world I am looking at you!) I use this every day: three minutes or less, inspiration for the whole day. It's great! Easy to use and inspiring music too.

Excellent tool for spiritual reflections Tune-ups.
★★★★★Mary Spoden· Apr 30, 2025
I don't always do the 3 minutes retreat but when I do I love that it relaxes me, leaves me at peace and graceful.
★★☆☆☆Cheryl Kopec· May 20, 2019
Nice little app with good customization. It can only be viewed in landscape mode on my Samsung Galaxy S4, and the reverse button does not exit the app. There is no in-app exit function. I have to force close the app when I'm done.
★★☆☆☆Trish F· Dec 10, 2025
I think this might be a nice app, but I'd much rather use portrait orientation, and other reviewers are right—a true exit option would be far more convenient. I'm uninstalling now, maybe I'll check back later to see if it's improved.
