Contact Formed Support

I have used and enjoyed Formed since our parish signed up a couple of years ago. I’ve read ebooks, watched various bible studies and films, and enjoyed special devotions for Lent and Advent. It has been a blessing.

I would like to see more resources on Catholic Social Teaching as I believe it would guide me as I seek to do my part in this broken, beautiful world. I appreciate the very short series with the Brother who draws so effectively (Brother Mickey?), and I would like to those in the parish. But I also need more in-depth resources for my own study.

One thing I’ve found frustrating in recent months is that the app logs me out between uses (not every time; just sometimes). To get back in requires an email address, a visit to an email inbox, and a click on a link. It’s obviously doable, but when I have a just a few minutes or am on my phone, it’s a lot of steps and especially on my phone where I can’t see as well, I leave and read something else. I would appreciate a simpler process or just not getting logged out. Overall, though, I enjoy Formed and find it helpful.

We go to Formed for many different programs, and find the Truth and the Story of our Faith so well-presented. Practicing our Faith at home and celebrating the sacraments and devotions and attending enriching discussion groups at Church has been made more meaningful and has brought us closer to Jesus. So thank you, Augustine Institute. Wish there were more time to participate in everything you offer, although the stay-home situation has allowed us to explore more lately.
Four stars because it would be helpful to access a table of contents to see a printed list of all the programs that you offer, arranged in categories and be able to click and go right to the one wanted. Some of the video covers are hard to read when searching. That said, thank you for quality programs by wonderful, gifted presenters and excellent unique graphics for each series helping us to locate the one we need and leading us beautifully through the talks.

It is a blessing to have an app like this to stream Catholic content wherever.

Functionally, would be great to have a more advanced search or search by some type of tagging or categories.

As for content, the original content and some of the series are great. I would love to see more content, perhaps working with other organizations like Word on Fire and Catholic Answers to include their content. To have some other great sources of content under one app would be awesome and something I would gladly pay for with a monthly subscription. My family is also utilizing a great program called Our Lady of the Rosary family catechism. It is totally free and the videos are a great walk-through of the Baltimore Catechism. Would be great to have those videos available on the app as well.
