Pros and cons of The Vatican News app for iPhone and iPad

The Vatican News app good for

Great UI and the chance to see Pope Francis social media messages without getting bogged down by the Twitter app. Love the daily homilies. Please keep this app going!
Eventually we can have real time access to our spiritual leader!
Please add the catholic bible, according to the language set by the user. Pope Francis always says "portate la Bibbia in tasca e leggete almeno un brano ogni giorno". This way its going to be easier to read the bible, because I wont have to leave the pope app to get it. Thanks.
Great app. Would be awesome if you could watch archived videos in case you missed the live broadcast. Thanks
Fantastic app! Lots of info. Slick look. Easy to navigate. Suggestions for improvement: scroll bar to indicate article length; share button for social network sites.
Good app, only problem is, it NEEDS to be redesigned to iOS 7. Thank you. Otherwise great app.

Some bad moments

It doesnt work. I saw the white smoke in the TV, but my mobile neither my iPad stand quiet... What a shamw
It would be nice if there was a way to choose what language to display the app. Since my phone is in french, the app automatically comes in french and there isnt much on it...! I would definitely give more starts if I could have a better access to the content!
The Twitter retweet icon does not work for me anymore. I cannot share the popes tweets through Twitter.
I was having crashing problems, so I deleted, then reloaded. Its working fine, and its a great app--lots of nice features.
Regardless of your denomination, an effective way to hear and read this humble servant of God, Pope Franciss spoken words. Real-time webcams, no news "fluff".
Wow! Everything about what Pope Francis is doing plus all The Vatican News up to the minute. I love the images and live video feed.
