## What is Daven Lock?

Daven first. Scroll later.

Daven Lock is the only tefillah app that holds you to your word. Pick the apps that pull you in — Instagram, TikTok, X, games — and they stay locked until you sit down and daven. No willpower required. Just one tap, one tefillah, one honest moment with Hashem.

This isn't another habit tracker. It's a personal siddur, a journal, and a gentle gatekeeper, all built around the way you actually pray.

— HOW IT WORKS —

1. Choose the apps you want locked
2. They stay closed until you open Daven Lock and daven
3. Your streak, your insights, and your journal grow with every tefillah

— WHAT'S INSIDE —

• Personalized Tefillos
Write to Hashem in your own words. Pour out what's on your heart — gratitude, fear, hope, the small things, the heavy things. Daven Lock helps you put it into a tefillah that sounds like you.

• Hebrew + English, Side by Side
Daven in lashon hakodesh with a clean English translation right next to it. Read the Hebrew phonetically with transliteration. Beautiful typography, no clutter, no distractions.

• Pasuk of the Day
A single pasuk to carry with you. Short, grounded, real.

• Personal Notes
Add a kavanah before you start. A name to daven for. A struggle you're working through. Your tefillah, your way.

• Dedications & Journal
Every tefillah is saved — who it was for, what you wrote, how you felt. Look back on weeks of avodah and see what changed.

• Streaks That Mean Something
A 47-day streak isn't a vanity number. It's 47 mornings you showed up. Daven Lock tracks streaks, total minutes, and the quiet patterns of your week.

• Insights
See when you daven best, how long you spend, and how your tefillah life is actually trending — without judgment, without guilt.

• App Blocking with Screen Time
Powered by Apple's Screen Time API. The blocking is real and it works system-wide. The apps you choose are locked until you finish davening.

— WHO IT'S FOR —

• Anyone who keeps saying "I'll daven later" and never does
• Bochurim, working people, students, parents — anyone juggling a phone and a relationship with Hashem
• People who want a siddur that feels personal, not generic
• Anyone trying to spend a little less time on their phone and a little more time on what matters

— PRIVATE BY DESIGN —

Your tefillos, your notes, your dedications — they stay on your device. We don't read them. We don't sell them. We don't train on them. Apple's Screen Time API handles blocking locally; nothing about which apps you block ever leaves your phone.
