New iPod App Helps with Confession

WASHINGTON — A new "Confession" application for Apple's iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch has received the blessing of a Catholic bishop.
"Confession: A Roman Catholic App," is the first program for the Apple devices created by a South Bend, Indiana-based company called "Little iApps."
Its developer, Patrick Leinen, said the app was designed to be used in the confessional and was intended "for those who frequent the sacrament and those who wish to return."
He said the app, which provides a step-by-step guide to the sacrament, had received the imprimatur from Bishop Kevin Rhoades of the Fort Wayne-South Bend diocese, the first program to receive the stamp of the church.
Leinen said he was inspired in developing the app by Pope Benedict XVI's call to the faithful to use new media to good purposes.
"Our desire is to invite Catholics to engage in their faith through digital technology," Leinen said in a press release on his littleapps.com website.
