You’ve probably heard: The Holy Catholic Church has blessed an iPhone App called “Confession”. If not, here’s the news link from the BBC.

Some of its features include:

-Custom examination of Conscience based upon age, sex, and vocation (single, married, priest, or religious)
-Multiple user support with password protected accounts
-Ability to add sins not listed in standard examination of conscience
-Confession walkthrough including time of last confession in days, weeks, months, and years
-Choose from 7 different acts of contrition
-Custom interface for iPad
-Full retina display support

So I was curious about this app, and since it was only $1.99 (which seems to be a much cheaper option for the forgiveness of sins), I decided to buy it despite not being Catholic. Because I was curious…

1) You have to sign up for an account

2) Your confessions/sins are password protected!

3) After signing in, you examine your conscience using the Ten Commandments.

4) Select your sin(s)

5) Now, it’s time to confess! You begin this process by selecting the “confession” option…

6) You are FORGIVEN…

7) Then you receive a nice quote from a saint!

And you’re done…

And the words of Tweeter Mike…

A confession app for Catholics. Now Midwestern Protestants need a “let’s not talk about it” app….
