## What is Prava?

Prava opens the Church's day for you: the readings appointed for today, a short teaching on them, and prayer for morning, evening and night. Follow the year the Church keeps, one day at a time. No streaks. No guilt.

THE DAILY READINGS
Every day of the year has its appointed readings, and Prava opens yours: the weekdays, the Sundays, and the feasts of the calendar. Choose the Roman Catholic lectionary or the Revised Common Lectionary used by many Protestant churches, so what you read is what your church hears. Read each passage whole or phrase by phrase, in order, with the time it takes.

A TEACHING EVERY DAY
Each day's readings come with a short teaching: what the passage says, where it sits, and what it is doing. It is free for everyone, every day, so a reading is never handed to you cold.

THE CHURCH'S CALENDAR
Today always shows where you are in the year. Tap the day's name to read what the season or feast is and why it is kept. Each week has a theme and an illustration that point toward Sunday's readings.

THE DAILY OFFICE
Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer and Compline (prayer before sleep) from the Book of Common Prayer. Each one opens at its time of day, one part to a page, with a plain explanation wherever something is new to you. Pray the full form or a four-minute short form, pick up where you left off, and set a reminder for the hours you keep.

SABBATH MODE
Choose the apps you want to set aside, and every Sunday your phone keeps them closed from midnight to midnight, using Apple's Screen Time. Prava never sees which apps you chose. Free for everyone.

PRAYERS AND CREEDS
The prayers the Church has prayed for centuries: the Our Father, the Nicene Creed and more, in the wording of your tradition. Each one has a plain explanation of what it is, where it came from and why we say it.

LECTIO DIVINA
One passage each week, prayed a little differently each day: read it, hold it, notice what stirs, reflect, pray and rest. An ancient way of praying Scripture slowly.

PRAY IN YOUR OWN WORDS
Write a prayer as it comes, or say it out loud and Prava writes down what you said. No recording is kept, and nothing is written for you. Every prayer is kept to be prayed again.

YOUR BIBLE AND PRAYER BOOK
Read the whole Bible, highlight it, keep notes and save the verses you love. Every prayer you pray gets its own page. Nothing you read or pray gets lost.

PEOPLE
Turn "I'll pray for you" into "I prayed." Ask one person to pray for something, or tell someone you prayed for them. It works even if they don't have Prava yet. No feed, no audience, no rankings.

INSIGHTS
Look back on what you have read and prayed, who you have prayed for, and how much of the Bible you have covered. A record, not a score.

BUILT ON GRACE
Miss a day and nothing breaks. Miss a week and Prava welcomes you back.

PRAVA+
Prava+ adds the NLT, NKJV, CSB and KJV alongside the free World English Bible; every color theme, in light and dark; covers, ribbons and paper tones for your Bible and Prayer Book; a written reflection on your week, drawn closely from your own words; your own study system for marking your Bible; and photo to text, which reads the highlights and notes from a photo of your printed Bible.

Prava helped me improve my faith consistency throughout the week. I loved the journal section and the insights in provided.

### 5/5 — Faith That Fits Into Real Life

*2026-04-06*

Prava has made growing in my faith feel simple and approachable. It offers guided prayers for the days when I don’t have the words, meaningful scripture to stay connected to God, and practical ways to serve others in everyday life. I love the reminder that serving can be as simple as uplifting a friend or supporting a small business—it doesn’t have to be complicated or tied to a church setting. This app truly starts my day with perspective and reminds me how good God is.

### How often is Prava updated?

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 5.1.0 — 2026-11-08

The Daily Office. Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer and Compline from the Book of Common Prayer, in a new Office tab. Each one opens at its time of day, with a short form for busy days. Pick up where you left off, and set a reminder for the hours you keep.

Sabbath mode. Choose apps to set aside, and every Sunday your phone keeps them closed, midnight to midnight. Prava never sees which apps you chose. Turn it on from your profile. The weekly reflection now arrives on Monday, so Sunday stays clear.

A new look for Today. Today opens on the week's readings with an illustration for the week, a card for the Daily Office and your practices in a row. Tap the day's name to read about it, and tap the week's theme to read more.

Daily teachings are free. The short teaching on each day's readings is now open to everyone, every day.

### 5.0.3 — 2026-10-23

Bug fixes and improvements.

### 5.0.2 — 2026-10-22

The Prayer Book turns its pages, lands where you left off, and gets out of the way faster. The Bible reader's paper now fills the whole screen, and the color-system question only asks once. Small fixes throughout.

### 5.0.1 — 2026-10-21

Lectio Divina has a new start screen that shows today's step, cleaner reading screens, and a quieter finish. You can now mark as much of the passage as you like.

The Bible reader has a close button at the top of every chapter.

In People, "How this works" now shows the first step, texting a friend your link, and lets you send it right from there.

Today no longer catches when you scroll to the top or bottom, and the journal flame keeps its warm colors on every theme.

### 5.0.0 — 2026-10-18

Version 5.0

This is the biggest update since launch, and it starts with a change we want to be plain about.

Prava no longer writes prayers for you. We believe a prayer should be your own words to God, so the AI-assisted prayer feature is gone. Type a few words or say them out loud; the voice option transcribes what you said and keeps no recording. The prayers Prava wrote in the past are still in your Prayer Book, marked so you know which words were yours. Tap “Where did the prayer writer go?” on the prayer screen to read the whole reason.

Also in this version:

A new Today screen. The day’s readings come first, with your practices beneath them.
The tab bar is now Apple’s own, so the app feels like the rest of your phone.
Lectio divina rebuilt to match the reading screens.
Teachings rewritten to be shorter and plainer, each opening with the verse it rests on. Sunday teachings stay free; weekday teachings are now part of Prava+.
A rebuilt Profile and settings.
Every theme refreshed, light and dark included.
A new first run for people joining Prava, built around the daily readings.
