About Obituary

Obituary is the most popular app for browsing the nation's obituaries on your Android phone.

With a simple interface there is no better way to browse, read, and share the beautiful stories of the ones that came before us.



Browsing:
By condensing the stories to the names of the deceased and a few headlines, you can find stories that are important to you much quicker than you can in paper or online. Each snippet of an obituary is linked to the larger story so that you can continue reading at the click of a button


Sharing:
Many of us read the obituaries so that we are aware of old friends or distant family members that have passed. With a touch of a button you can share the story through email, Facebook, or Twitter so that all your friends and family can stay informed.


Coverage:
We currently are covering obituaries from over a hundred of the largest newspapers in America and Canada. Our current coverage is listed below, and we will update as we add more cities each week. So if you don’t see your location covered keep checking back or shoot us an email and we will be sure to add it.

We also are proud to cover all of those brave American soldiers who have been killed defending their country. It is these individuals who pay the price of maintaing freedom, and we feel it is the duty of every American to know the names and faces of these soldiers.

Y70%

Only displays partial statement of deceased. However, on the celebrities list it shows who passed on of famous people that I did not even know that had died such as Wes Craven. So it is informative in that sense.

Y70%

Last posting was from last year, and you can only select certain newspapers to get information from. Forget it if you are from Small Town USA and/or live past 2015!

B70%
by B####:

It would get a lot more stars if this was no more than an rss viewer connecting different news sources. Lazy developer. Search, show the whole article, bring up in browser, share, save, make place/bookmark, landscape mode, tablet support, font size for sight disabled, copy, search should/could have many options/capabilities, alerts... These are just common sense ideaa, and without these no one should give it more than one star IMHO I'm afraid. So much potential, utterly disappointed for me and many others for such an importent app subject matter .

F70%
by F####:

Just shows some obits from city newspapers that aren't up to date and has no way to search or sort them. Good idea but pretty much useless as it is now.

B70%
by B####:

Update! Don't create a app of this statue if u not going keep it update it's not a game. A application like this is sentimental and touchy

U70%
by U####:

Good app, but it doesn't update the Today in History section. Every time I try the update button an error occurs and the app forcecloses. Needs to be fixed.

U70%
by U####:

Like it but Toronto Star does not appear... More Canadian content would be appreciated.

Where is davey jones?its been 2 days since his death no posting .this app should be much more current

U70%
by U####:

Kept getting connection errors. When I got on I couldn't search by name. Then it crashed. Un-Installed!

U70%
by U####:

Nice interface, but lacks search capabilities. Also wish there was a clear definition of what timeline is covered by the obituaries such as last two weeks or month. Overall nice app for viewing obituaries in one location.

U70%
by U####:

At least add the major cities. Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, etc.

Q70%
by Q####:

Although the entries are sparse, I like this app.

U70%
by U####:

Every time i try to open the full obituary it keeps saying error. Great idea but only great if it works.
