Once again - the Vatican has not denounced the app. What they've denounced are suggestions that were made by the media. As I said before, you're confusing jocular statements made by the press with the app itself.
I stand corrected! The Vatican has not disapproved the app which it says can not be used to actually confess your sins but only help you find, remember and list them. You must see a priest for the actual confession just as it it says in my Bible in I Timothy 2:5.

As of this writing the Confession app stands at #27 of top paid iPad apps, only slightly below Resident Evil at #20. Is there some connection here that I am missing?
