My Stations of the Cross

The app is okay, has the necessary prayers and guide. Three stars for the app, not for the ads. But ads at the bottom for contraceptives, really? Every single station has one. Yes, I know that I can pay to get the version without ads, but an app mainly aimed at Catholics, shouldn’t be getting any income from those types of ads. It is contrary to church teaching. Be forewarned. There are better apps out there for only a couple of dollars, without those types of ads.

I really like this app. There are no opening or closing prayers, as with other apps or like we have in the booklets at Church. If that matters to you, this is not the app for you. It is the text of each Station. It’s a new translation of the text that I’ve never read before. I go to Stations at Church on Friday nights and recite the opening and closing prayers and sing the refrain between each Station. This is exactly what I need to pray the Stations at home. Thumbs up!

There are normally prayers before the stations to prepare and prayers after to conclude the stations. This app does not have them, therefore this app is not sufficient in itself for the stations. What is there is good, but incomplete.
