Listening: Religion and Smartphone Apps




Carmen Roberts examines how app developers in Singapore are creating software designed to help people make the most out of religion.

Listen to the news report and answer the questions:


What city is the news report talking about?
How many religions are there in the city?
What is MosSG?
How many peple have downloaded in a month? In a year?
Who is their competitor? What are the features of the app?
How have the Christains made use of the apps features?
How can people use the apps?

What is Marie Boon's opinion?
What religion is the meditation centre linked to?
How have the Buddhists used the app technology?


The report states that the apps may make the younger generation more interested in religion. Do you agree? Why? Post your thoughts below.
