I see that as of the latest version (December 2017 update), it is working better and is streamlined. I like following along day by day and the ease of fulfilling my pledge.

Flickering still a problem 3/9/17 - response to development team. I am providing the following info just in case it is helpful in developing a solution to the problem... I have a Nexus 6P and my operating system is fully up to date. I will verify that I have the most up to date version of the app, but I believe I do.

Unfortunate flickering. Tried to donate, would not work. Please fix. Just started on my phone HTC 10. Was working fine just a few days ago. Too bad, great Lenten resource.

N70%
by N####:

As described various times before, the app does not work properly on Android, due to constant flickering. This is a shame, and ought to be fixed immediately.

I tried to donate multiple times but when I click on donate it won't load. I rebooted both devices nothing happened.

Last year I didn't have any trouble with this app. Now whenever I open it, all it does is flicker every time I try to open the daily reflection. It's really annoying. Please fix.

It might be a good app; I don't know. However, all it did on my Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge was flicker. It was impossible to read it. So, I'm going to uninstall it. Better luck next year!

N70%

Disappointed.... All options I tried flickered endlessly so unable to use it on Android.. but it does look good if only this was fixed.

N70%
by N####:

I was really looking forward to using this app for Lent, especially the Friday recipes. However, it's pretty much useless right now because all it does is flicker constantly no matter what area of the app I'm in. Hoping a bug fix is coming soon! Will definitely upgrade my rating once it's actually usable.

Flickering and automatically closes. Very frustrating.

Flickering screen and forced closing

N70%
by N####:

It looks like it will be great... Once the screen stops flickering. I'll keep trying it up until Ash Wednesday, then I guess I'll have to look for another app. But I have enjoyed this one in the past, so I hope it gets fixed soon.

REVIEW UPDATE AS OF 02/25/17... Disappointed. Thank you for replying developers but the app has no change and is still buggy. Uninstalled. 02/15/17 REVIEW: Fix BEFORE Lent! As the 2017 Rice Bowl campaign coordinator for our church and school, I was excited to download the app & test the waters before the 2017 campaign Kick Off. After inputting my 2017 Lent financial goal, all pages blink and flash. I cannot even read the Daily Reflection because of the rapidly flashing screen & then the app will crash. EVERY. TIME. I have installed, uninstalled, installed, uninstalled, restated phone to install to find that... there had been no change. PLEASE FIX BEFORE LENT. How can I push the app if it's not a good "sell"? Developers, Please advise.

Very buggy. Each screen constantly flickers and flashes, making them illegible. Could be helpful if this were fixed.

Rice bowl app for prayer I will try reinstalling it on my Android device I love CRS and I want this to work. It crashed last year also but not as badly as this year. I have tried several times again in 2017 but flickering screen. Wanted to share with my Students but no way.

I downloaded the app and have yet to see anything other than a blank screen. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the 2016 app unsuccessfully. I had no problem with the 2015 app.

Downloaded the new version and it seems to have been fixed now, yea! One suggestion for improvement though is to add the feature of suggesting donation amounts based on things like how many different items eaten or times feeling hungry on a given day, as in the paper version.

Just installed it on my Android, but it crashed every time I open it. The menu open for a while, but when I tried to select one of the menu, it went to blank screen or notification that the app just stopped. Please fix this bug.
