GETTING DOWN TO BRASS TACKS
I have tried many different prayer apps and found all of them wanting except this one! It doesn’t have pretty colors, or multiple text styles, or music, or lovely background pictures that some do. It doesn’t come with ‘built in’ devotions, or daily ‘encouraging’ words.
It is easily amendable, easily navigated, and loaded with great reminders from GOD’S WORD, which is where genuine prayer resides! The User can decide on how to pursue devoted prayer and is given options for adding, changing and modifying text, prayers and bible versions.
For me, it’s a FIVE STAR app, with one small exception…at times, it is not clear how to make certain changes happen and take effect, but once learned it is everything a devotee of prayer could want. It truly puts the User “in the driver’s seat” and eliminates the temptation to let the app dictate your prayer time.

GOTTEN TO LOVE IT
I had a bit of a learning curve to figure out how to make it useful. I really love it now that I figured out how to add to it and generally make it do what I want.
Excellent way to organize prayer needs!
I’ve been using this app for at least 7 years, maybe 10. It is a great way to organize all of the categories of prayers that a person might want to cover. I love that it starts with the ACTS prayers, and pairs scripture with them. You can customize additional catories in any way that you like. I have categories for myself, family, bible study members’ requests, home group members requests, our country, etc.
You can set up the timing interval for seeing each request to be anything from every day to a much lower frequency. Prayers which have been answered can be moved to an “Answered Prayers” or “Praise” category.
The flexibility of this app is excellent, while also providing a foundational structure to begin with.

Years of daily use
I continue to be thrilled with this app. This app is a daily delight for me.
Great app!
This is a great app that shuffles the things you want to pray for based on a frequency you set. Bible passages to pray are already in the app as well, and you can easily add passages from the Book of Common Worship or another source, it’s totally customizable. Takes some time to set up but totally worth it once you do.

Quit working
The reminders worked fine at first but then stopped. Contacted customer service and they said something about somebody having a baby?? Confusing. Why would it work for a week or two then stop. It’s very strange.
Great Tool To Help With Focus
This App is easy to use and really helps me to stay focused with an open heart to the Holy Spirit. It has been a struggle for me to have some consistency in my prayer life. This app is very helpful. Thank You.
Needs to Sync
The developers indicated - quite some time ago - that the ability to sync with other devices was coming soon. Still waiting. Not everyone uses Dropbox, nor should we have to. As great as this app could be, the absence of the ability to sync is a “deal beaker” for me and for many, many others. Neither will I input information in two devices, nor will I pay for an external cloud storage service.

Response from developer
The data storage options that Prayer Prompter provides its users makes the programming time to develop iCloud syncing extremely difficult to predict. The cost could run as high as $20,000. We suggest you use our manual Dropbox Backup and Restore feature. It's free and works flawlessly.
At my fingertips
Love that I have reminders and great to have this at my fingertips- I needed help in my prayer life. Thank you!
Great App!
The app revolutionized my prayer life! I’ve been using it more than 5 years, and my prayer life has grown exponentially. And I can faithfully pray for those who request me to, as well as for others, like those who serve is in all levels of government. I can ask friends and family for their requests and then follow up later to check in on how their request is being answered. It’s a great way to expand your friendship base by remembering to pray for people and taking the opportunity to check in with them. I highly recommend this app!
