## What is Prayer Gate?

You reach for your phone. A prayer meets you first.

Prayer Gate puts a short prayer between you and the apps you open without thinking. Choose the apps. When you open one, Scripture appears first: a Psalm, the words of Jesus, a passage for whatever you're carrying today. Read for a moment, and your apps open.

Then carry God's Word with you all day, with a verse of the day on your Home Screen, your Lock Screen and your wallpaper.

PRAY BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR APPS
• Lock social media, games, videos, whatever pulls you in
• Pick your rhythm: once in the morning, three times a day, or every hour
• A short prayer opens them, from 25 seconds to 5 minutes, your choice
• Gentle reminders at the times you choose

VERSE OF THE DAY, EVERYWHERE
• A fresh verse every morning, chosen for what you're working through
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets over beautiful photos
• Verse wallpapers, saved straight to your Photos
• Share any verse as a picture for your story or a text

THE WHOLE BIBLE, OFFLINE
• Four complete translations: King James Version, World English Bible, Berean Standard Bible and American Standard Version
• Search any verse or phrase, mark your place, and pick up where you left off
• Save the verses that speak to you

PRAYER THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE
• Choose your focus: anxiety, fear, forgiveness, gratitude, hope, peace, grief, purpose, temptation, or the words of Jesus
• Scripture by default. Add historic prayer books if you'd like: the Book of Common Prayer, early church and saints, Reformation and Catholic prayers, each with its source shown
• Track the days you spend with God each week

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no sign-up and no ads. Prayer Gate uses Apple's Screen Time to show a prayer before the apps you pick, and Apple never tells us which apps you chose. What you read, save and pray stays on your phone.
