### 5/5 — A Simple Prayer Tool

*2026-02-23*

In an age filled with distractions, including the one we carry in our pockets, it is so calming to pick up my phone and see and hourly “arrow prayer” that I can use to refocus myself back on my main priority as an Orthodox Christian—to pray without ceasing. 

I’ve used this tool for a long time now, and it is an important part of each day’s praying. 

Such a wonderfully helpful tool! I recommend it to all new Catechumens as well as other Orthodox Christians who long to pray more.

### 5/5 — Bring your mind back

*2025-06-07*

I love tiny, simple apps like this. Reminds me of the olden days of the internet. I enjoy seeing a new prayer every hour. It brings your mind back to focus on Him, if even for a few moments.

### 5/5 — Seriously - everyone need this.

*2025-02-20*

Short one line prayers every hour that can completely change your life.  I love this app.  Thank you for putting in the work to build it and share it with the community.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-02-14*

I love this app and come back to it constantly.  I have friends with android phones who would love to also have this available to them.

### 5/5 — Needs a bug fix

*2024-12-11*

Great app. Widget sits on my Home Screen and helps to remind me to pray everyday and every hour. Recently since updating to the latest iOS update the widget will flash and blink. And not update to the next hour. Unless I put my phone to sleep and wake it back up. Or launch another app. Simple bug. Not a huge problem but ascetically it’s annoying. Thanks for such a simple but highly effective app! I have looked up the issue and it seems that iOS 181.1 had lots of changes to the widget coding. All apps need to be updated to take advantage of iOS 18.1.1

I love this app so much! Thank you! However, can it be available for android users? I have a lot of friends who want this app but are android users

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind words. Stay tuned!

### 5/5 — A great blessing

*2024-02-06*

Great great app, I love the widget feature so much! Really beneficial to pray unceasingly and beautiful reminders of the Lord’s strength always. Would love to see an app with more church fathers and mothers too!! 
My one concern is the android compatibility, I tried to share with some beloved but they were saddened to hear it wasn’t on android yet! Please work for that fix🙏
May the Lord bless and multiply your service to be fruitful and glorify His holy name.

**Developer response:** Yes to more prayers of the saints and to your other concern. Thank you for your kind words!
