★★★★★ Orion Sequeira · Oct 9, 2017

How to change to English. Please refer review from Benjamin Bern K. A little below.

★★★★★ Rommel Soto Del Rosario · Feb 20, 2026

Blessed to have an official much-needed source.

★★★★★ Jose Santana · Jun 17, 2020

Exceptional app I work as a pastoral counselor and my seminary education part in Latin and Vatican app is in Latin Some parishioners of the church all experience some kind of questions of being a catholic, and I am not a catholic but the app gives me understanding of the priestly abuse and guess what the priests have a vow of silence for their brothers The priest you can find the link on Google Exceptional app Thank you

★★★★☆ Aurélien Demont · Jun 12, 2021

The user experience really do not differ from a regular website which reduces its interest. The only added value I see is the possibility to see 360° pictures of the Holy See. Laymen like me will not bother with notifications, limiting the use of this app to clergy people.

★★★★★ KELVIN BONFACE · Oct 26, 2021

It's a good app which keeps us updated with Papal Encyclicals and Papal Audience

★★☆☆☆ dan taylor · Oct 2, 2018

It won't work and it only appears to be in either spanish or Italian, neither of which I can understand. Maybe that makes me sound ignorant, but what good is enlightenment if you are not enlightened by it?

★★☆☆☆ John Joseph · Nov 7, 2020

Rife with bugs. Certain buttons won't work at all. Can't find explanation why full encyclical text (i.e. Fratelli Tutti) not available. Only shows up to paragraph 62. No option visible to "Read more".

★★☆☆☆ Exequiel Sambile · Mar 6, 2021

I was expecting that this app would be convenient because I can read Encyclicals and Letters of the Pope without opening a Laptop or PC, but this app is Slow and sometimes the buttons are not even working at all. I hope there are a Major Fixes about this, PRO DEO ET ECCLESIAL!
