An exact, always-visible count of the days since you last received absolution — a quiet, honest reminder that never nags.

“Confession is an act of honesty and courage — an act of entrusting ourselves, beyond sin, to the mercy of a loving and forgiving God.”
— St. John Paul II
The Sacrament of Reconciliation
Most Catholics know they need Confession more often. They just don't know where it's offered, when they'll be seen, what to say once inside, or how to stop repeating the same sins.
Appsolution answers all four questions in one reverent, private app — purpose-built for the Sacrament and nothing else. No feeds, no gamification, no distraction. Just the shortest, most prayerful path from contrition to absolution.
The nearest Confession times, estimated wait times updated live by penitents already there.
Get in line and check-in. Enter the Priest name and the number of penitents for your line.
A private, encrypted examination of conscience and lists of your sins that is never saved to your device or anywhere.
Practical, saint-informed guidance so you don't repeat the same sin next month.
App Features
Appsolution walks with you from the moment you decide to go, through the line, into the booth, and back to the pew — with the exact tools you need at each step, and nothing that pulls you away from the Sacrament.
Pre-Confession
An exact, always-visible count of the days since you last received absolution — a quiet, honest reminder that never nags.
A live schedule for every Catholic church in the country, plus a map of the 6–10 closest parishes from wherever you're standing — with the next Confession and nearest time near you.
In the Confession Line
Report the priest's name and how many penitents are ahead of you. Everyone in line gets a live estimated wait time, and the parish helps itself.
Jot down your sins so you don't forget them — in a field that never touches the cloud, a server, or even your phone's storage. It lives only in temporary cache and wipes clean the moment you close the app or hit Absolution.
A thorough examination based on the Ten Commandments, plus a 77-sin index you can peruse — with detail on each sin's effect on the soul, so you don't leave anything out.
In the Confession Booth
Store the priest's advice from every Confession, and refer back to it later. Edit it when the same sin surfaces again, or delete it once the lesson has taken root.
Write your assigned penance the moment it's given — so you don't lose the exact prayer, act, or number of days before you're back in the pew.
Post-Confession & In-Pew
Your assigned penance is right where you left it — clear, easy to pray, and never lost to memory before you kneel back down.
Read and reflect on the three commitments that carry absolution forward — Avoid Near Occasions of Sin, Perform Assigned Penance, and Strive for Amendment.
For every sin you confessed, read a dedicated screen with 3–5 psychological and practical strategies for not repeating it. Version 1 launches with 77 sins covered.
“It is Jesus who receives you, welcomes you and forgives you. This is the beauty of Confession.”
— Pope Benedict XVI
App Screens
Every screen is built around a single moment in Confession — before you go, in line, in the booth, and back in the pew. Nothing extra. Nothing sold to you.
Confession times for 18,000 U.S. Catholic churches, plus a map of the 6–10 closest parishes from wherever you're standing — ranked by soonest available and shortest wait, with drive time and priests hearing before you leave.
Tell the community how many penitents are ahead of you and how many priests are hearing. Everyone in line gets a live estimated wait — and the parish helps itself.
An encrypted, temporary field for your examination of conscience — nothing saved to the cloud, a server, or even your phone's storage. One tap of the Absolution Wipe clears everything the moment you receive absolution.
A structured examination based on the Ten Commandments — the same trusted framework the Church has used for centuries, laid out so you don't leave anything out.
Every word, in order — from the sign of the Cross through the Act of Contrition to "Thanks be to God." No fumbling for the right prayer while the priest waits.
Type the counsel you receive right after Confession — encrypted locally on your device, never uploaded. Come back to it whenever the same struggle returns.
Every note you've taken from every Confession, ready to revisit before the next one. Edit or delete an entry when the lesson has taken root — or return to it when the same sin surfaces.
Every Confession ends with three commitments — Avoid Near Occasions of Sin, Perform Assigned Penance, and Strive for Amendment. Confirm them from the pew before you leave.
After absolution, Appsolution guides you through a personal reflection on each sin you named — with 3–5 psychological and spiritual remedies drawn from the saints and Catholic tradition. Choose a resolution, commit it to your local encrypted journal, and walk away with a real strategy for not repeating the sin. Version 1 launches with 77 sins covered.
The seal of Confession is inviolable. Appsolution honors it in code, too — your sin list is stored locally, encrypted, and never transmitted to us, the cloud, or anyone else. One tap erases it forever the moment you receive absolution.
“No individual Christian can grow in perfection, nor can Christianity gain in vigor, except it be on the basis of penance.”
— St. John XXIII

— Ven. Pope Pius XII
Frequently Asked
Yes. Your sin list is encrypted and stored only on your device — never uploaded to our servers, never backed up to the cloud, never sent anywhere. When you tap “Received Absolution,” the list is permanently wiped from your phone.
Confession schedules are seeded from parish websites and diocesan directories, then kept current by the community — penitents who show up update the actual line length and wait time, which is what makes the live map useful.
Appsolution is a lay-built tool that faithfully serves the Sacrament — it does not replace it, hear confessions, or offer absolution. Only a validly ordained priest can absolve sins. We work with pastors and dioceses who want to make Confession easier to find in their parishes.
No — you can use Appsolution purely to find Confession. But every check-in helps the next penitent, which is the whole point of a community-updated map. It only takes a second.
You can silently reference your sin list during your Confession, then erase it immediately after. That's the intended use. We recommend putting the phone away and being fully present with the priest — the app is for before and after, not during.
Yes. Appsolution is available worldwide anywhere the App Store or Google Play is available. Confession schedules are strongest in dioceses where enough Catholics have contributed — help build it out in your area by checking in.
