Brian Dickerson: To err is human; to confess, $1.99
If you don't own such a device, of course, you may have overlooked the debut of "Confession: A Roman Catholic App." Developed by three lay designers, Confession bills itself as "a step-by-step guide to the sacrament" for password-protected subscribers. Its authors say the new app is particularly useful for "individuals who've been away from the sacrament for some time" and they note that it's the first iPad and iPhone app to secure the imprimatur of a Catholic bishop -- Kevin Rhoades of the Diocese of Ft. Wayne.
Response to the new app from the church has been cautious but positive; the Most Rev. Kevin Rhoades, bishop of Fort Wayne-South Bend, gave his imprimatur to the app, essentially an acknowledgment that it doesn't conflict with Catholic teaching.
