A report has surfaced stating that a Catholic Church approved app is now available on the App Store. It’s titled “Confession: A Roman Catholic App” and it’s purpose is to help guide Catholics through the act of confession, not replace it. Here’s an excerpt:
Confession: A Roman Catholic app, thought to be the first to be approved by a church authority, walks Catholics through the sacrament and contains what the company behind the program describes as a “personalized examination of conscience for each user”.
The app is not designed to replace going to confession but to help Catholics through the act, which generally involves admitting sins to a priest in a confessional booth. Catholics still must go to a priest for absolution.
Bishop Kevin Rhoades has approved this app on behalf of the Catholic Church.
Although confession is free, the app will set you back $2. Check it out here.
