## What is Prayer Latch?

Prayer Latch is a prayer lock for your phone. Your most distracting apps stay locked each morning until you pray. Pray before you scroll, and give God the first minutes of your day instead of the feed.

HOW THE PRAYER LOCK WORKS
Prayer Latch is a Christian app blocker. Pick the apps you want to lock, like social media, videos or games, and choose your wake-up time. At that time each morning, those apps lock. Read a guided morning prayer or pray in your own words, then hold the button to say Amen. Your apps stay open until the next morning. You can add more lock times if you want more prayer breaks. Emergency unlock is always available and free.

MEET LATCH
Latch is your animated padlock companion. Grow together on a 90-day journey through 10 painted places, one day of prayer at a time.

PRAY AND KEEP A PRAYER JOURNAL
Use built-in prayers offline in all 24 languages, or choose a personalized AI prayer with your permission and an internet connection. Return to your prayers in the prayer journal. Your personal prayer history stays on your device.

READ THE BIBLE OFFLINE
Read the Bible in 24 languages without internet. Highlight verses and add your own notes.

LESS DOOMSCROLLING, MORE TIME WITH GOD
Screen time limits are easy to dismiss. Prayer Latch turns the moment you reach for your phone into a moment of prayer, so the first thing you give your attention to each day is God.

YOUR FIRST WEEK IS FREE
Try app locking for seven days with no card. The free week does not charge you automatically. After that, locking apps needs a monthly or yearly Prayer Latch Plus subscription. Without Plus, your apps are not locked and your choices stay saved. Bible reading, the journal, prayers and emergency unlock stay free.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled in App Store. See the price and billing period before you subscribe.

Layouts for iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo.

YOU CONTROL APP PROTECTION
Your app selections stay on your device. Prayer Latch does not read your messages, passwords or the content of other apps. You can revoke Screen Time access or uninstall the app. Prayer Latch is a habit tool; essential communications should remain accessible.
