Where did the "All Songs" button go? Our family used to love going through the the songs to remember the catechism, after having gone through it at Sunday School. Just as others mentioned, we rarely use the app now that we completed the New City Catechism study and can't listen to all the songs without having to select each one. Please bring the feature back.

Please please make the songs have the continuous play again. I used this constantly in the car with my grandchildren as we're in the car a great deal and could sing along together without having to stop and push play after each song. I am too old to do this and drive. Thanks for a wonderful app that was able to use a bit more in the past.

I absolutely love this app! It is user friendly, has a great design, and the songs are amazing. The only problem I have is that the songs sometimes stop in the middle for no reason. I agree it would be useful if it saved your place and had a playlist of the songs, but swiping through the questions and clicking to see the answers is very simple and beneficial for memory practice. Overall, I'm very glad I found this app as an aid for me and my children to memorize the catechism!
