  • Are you talking about making an app for CathoInfo? I suggested that already and I'm pretty sure others have suggested it before I did.

  • The iMass app gives you a daily Missal for which you can toggle versions from the original Tridentine Missal of 1570 to the post 1960 Transitional Missal. It also has the Divine Office (also the version can be toggled) and live and recorded streams of FSSP Masses. Annoying, while the iTunes version has been updated, it seems to have vanished from the Play Store. It is handy to be able to follow a morning Low Mass before work properly.

    I think a mobile site would be better because there's just the forum. If we were like fisheaters (whose website - forum be damned - has a trove of valuable Catholic resources and guides), then an app would be great.

    What would that app do?

    I have yet to find any truly traditional Catholic apps.  I would like an app for the Rosary that DOES NOT have the Luminous mysteries.  :really-mad2:  I ended up recording my own with Audacity and just loading the file to my phone.

    Interactive Baltimore Catechism apps would be nice to use with children, add a little variety to rote learning.

    I'm surprised some enterprising youth hasn't taken up developing apps for traditional Catholics.

  • I have a Douay Rheims Bible app, but the online version is so much more convenient.

    Well, this answered my question.  I was looking for an traditional Rosary app for when I walk.  I guess I will have to record my own.
