Prepare for confession with guided examinations, and end each day with St. Ignatius's five-minute Daily Examen. Private by design: nothing leaves your device. Confession is one of the most beautiful gifts of the Catholic faith — and for many of us, one of the most intimidating. It's been too long. I won't know what to say. I'll forget something. Reconcile is here to quiet that fear. Reconcile walks with you through the whole sacrament: a thorough examination of conscience, a clear step-by-step guide to what happens in the confessional, and a gentle way to make reconciliation a lasting part of your spiritual life. PREPARE WITH CONFIDENCE • A guided examination of conscience based on the Ten Commandments, with practical, honest reflection questions • Each commandment paired with deeper context from the Catechism and Scripture • Quick Prep, a focused five-minute examination for when you go regularly • Privately mark what you want to bring to confession, note how many times, and add anything the questions don't cover in your own words — just for you • A clear guide to the difference between mortal and venial sin, grounded in the Catechism KNOW WHAT TO SAY • A step-by-step walkthrough of the sacrament, from the Sign of the Cross to the Act of Contrition • The walkthrough draws in the sins you noted, how many times, and how long it's been, so the words come easily • The full Act of Contrition and other prayers in large, easy-to-read text for the confessional • A compassionate guide for coming back if it has been years — you are not the first, and you are welcome END THE DAY IN GRATITUDE • The Daily Examen of St. Ignatius: five movements, five minutes • Gratitude, a look back over your day, forgiveness, and a resolution for tomorrow BUILD THE HABIT • Log each confession and watch your spiritual life unfold over time • Record the penance you were given and get a gentle reminder to complete it • Gentle reminders to return, as often as you choose — never guilt, never shame • A private journal for your reflections after each confession FIND A PARISH • Search for Catholic parishes near you when you're ready to go PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your examination, your confessions, your journal — all of it stays on your device. Your reflections are encrypted. Lock the app with a PIN if you share your phone. Nothing is uploaded, sold, or shared. What you bring to confession is between you and God.

A new look for Reconcile. Every screen has been rebuilt around the quiet of a church interior, with the days since your last confession at the centre. Pages settle into place as you scroll instead of jumping. YOUR EXAMINATION NOW ENDS WITH ROOM FOR ANYTHING ELSE The questions are a guide, not a complete list. If something fits none of them, write it in your own words. It travels with everything else into the confessional, and takes a private note and a count just like any other entry. YOUR COUNT COMES WITH YOU When you note that something happened more than once, that number now appears beside it in the confession walkthrough, so it is in front of you while you are speaking with the priest. ALSO IN THIS VERSION Confession Insights explains its chart properly now, with a scale you can read and month names in your own language.
