Description

I’ve been using Formed for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that helps Catholics and people interested in Catholicism learn more about their faith. Kinda like a one-stop shop for all things Catholic – there’s videos, podcasts, Bible studies, and other resources to help you grow closer to Christ.

The app’s got a ton of content across different categories like apologetics, bible studies, and sacramental preparation. You can browse by topic or search for specific things you’re interested in. There’s also personalized recommendations based on what you’ve been using. And you can download stuff to watch or listen to offline, which is super handy.

Look, if you’re a practicing Catholic or just curious about the faith, you’ll probably find a lot of value in Formed. It’s not perfect – some of the content can be a bit dry and the app could use a refresh design-wise. But overall it’s a solid resource that helps you learn and engage with Catholicism on the go. Worth checking out, in my opinion.

Editor Opinion

So here's my honest take on Formed. I've tested a bunch of Catholic apps and this one's one of the better ones. The content is genuinely helpful and you can tell it's curated by people who know their stuff. I especially like the wide variety of topics covered - everything from apologetics to liturgy to theology. And the personalized recommendations are also pretty spot on. On the downside, the UI is a little dated and some of the videos can be a bit boring. But those are minor gripes. If you're looking to deepen your faith, Formed is a great all-in-one solution.
