## What is Koboskini?

A prayer rope is a loop made up of complex woven knots formed in a cross pattern, usually out of wool or silk.

This app gives you the opportunity to pray as having a prayer rope on your hand by having an Apple Watch on it. The watch ticks every time to say the prayer keeping your mind focused. Integration with HealthKit keeps track of how much you pray.

You can configure the number of ticks and the interval. The tick on the watch is gentle so you can pray without distracting the attention of others.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner

### 5/5 — Great concept, needs a change

*2020-09-23, version 1.1*

I have this app, and enjoy the concept. However, I find that the buzz on the watch for each timed “prayer” is not strong enough to feel after the first buzz. I tried manipulating the haptics, but to no avail. I would have mentioned this to the developer in private, but there is no way to reach him. Also, adding more that 100 possible repetitions would make the app better. This app is a great idea, but just needs a little modification.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2020-09-02, version 1.1*

I would add some icons maybe and realistic comboskini look ( prayer rope) that goes around with a different color or something. It’s a little too plain. I like the option with seconds, but human prayer is not by clock the time naturally can vary.
I think the user must push the button after each prayer he says. Just an idea :) otherwise still love it. God bless!

### 1/5 — How does it work?

*2020-02-01, version 1.1*

No instructions.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2018-07-23, version 1.1*

I searched for a Jesus Prayer app on a whim in the App Store and found this application. I love that there is a watch app and now with the new update to integrate with HealthKit - it is truly a complete app. 

Thank you so much for making this. What a blessing!

UPDATE: One issue, I notice that enabling HealthKit, it seems to add minutes to the exercise activity ring, which is not what I would expect.
