Please Note: This app is "a treasury of saint names, patrons & feasts". It is not an encyclopedic edition on the saints (something that would not be possible for us to offer at this low price). Listings for the thousands and thousands of saints that are included in this app are as pictured (see screenshots). These listings do not contain comprehensive biographies or pictures. Please do not purchase this app and then give it a low rating because it is not an encyclopedia.

Note Re: 'Duplicates': This app contains three (3) types of records: patron saints, liturgical feasts (old & new calendars), and other feasts/martyrology. Although some of the content will necessarily be duplicative (e.g. feasts from the martyrology may also appear in the liturgical calendar, feasts from the old calendar may also appear in the new), this does NOT mean the records themselves are duplicates. Rather, each record stands alone for each record type (note the different icons associated w/each record type). Please do not give a low rating because a certain percentage of records are deemed to be 'duplicates' or ask us to remove them because these records - while they may contain some duplicative data - are NOT actually duplicates. If we were to remove supposed 'duplicates', the app could no longer provide complete listings for each record type.
