## What is PrayerWorks?

PrayerWorks! was created with a simple idea. Connect individuals with prayer needs, with others who are willing to pray. More than a simple bulletin board, PrayerWorks! allows you to receive a note of encouragement every time someone prays for you. 

Since its launch at 98.5 KTIS in Minneapolis, Minnesota, PrayerWorks! has partnered with radio stations throughout the U.S. to create local communities of prayer. At KTIS alone, over 22,000 prayer requests have been posted, and over 350,000 prayers have been prayed so far. We are looking forward to seeing what can happen as we take this mobile. 

• Join an existing prayer community, or take part in the global community
• Request prayer from wherever you are, whenever you need it!
• Receive notification each time someone has prayed for you
• Send notes of encouragement in response to other prayer requests


FROM ONE OF OUR USERS:

“I cannot explain to you how much PrayerWorks has touched my life. I have been praying for strength in my marriage, which I posted a prayer for tonight. Then I went to the other room and began praying. I decided to check my e-mail before going to sleep and I was brought to my knees by what I saw!! My inbox had over 60 prayer responses! I am truly in tears and speechless – it seems like a miracle – as if God truly was letting me know not to get discouraged through this, and that He hears my prayer.” - Angel

### 5/5 — Issues.

*2021-03-28*

I am concerned for this app. It is so great and I hear KTIS talk about it all the time. They will even read and pray for people on the air. I have noticed the issue of it showing zero prayers but I could still receive the emailed notes. When I go into my account, there it would show my prayers and the number of people that have prayed. In the last two days it is not even showing my prayer requests I send out. I know you all are praying and it’s not about numbers or knowing but I really like going back and reading my prayers as if it was the day I sent it. 

This app has changed my prayer life hands down. I care so much more for other people and basically the entire world. 

It’s a one star review because I want this to be seen and fixed. I love this app, it’s a 5 star app for sure. 

Oh and I can not get onto the developers website to contact them directly with this issue, I hope that gets fixed soon too. 

Thank you everyone and gob bless, Amen!

It’s been about a month I had one star up. I have used this app daily and have noticed great changes in my prayer life. I am happy with it exactly the way it is. Thank you lord Jesus, amen!

### 2/5 — Great idea poor execution right now

*2021-02-12*

The link for APP support is broken. I am trying to contact KTIS directly. When praying and marking prayers the newest works correctly. Even logged in when I try the queue for” recent without prayers” it does not remember that I prayed. If I log out and go back even with a refresh it’s not showing or counting against my profile. This could be terribly disappointing to those who have put their prayers out in hopes of others praying for intervention and not seeing any response. 

Sadly much like the support of this application. Please get your act together you have a responsibility!!

### 4/5 — Showing zero prayers?

*2020-09-23*

When I pray for someone and tap the “I prayed” button, then go back to it later, sometimes it still shows that ZERO people have prayed for that person. 

I know the point isn’t to see how many people pray for someone, but it’s got to be horribly discouraging to have a prayer request and think that NO ONE has prayed for you :-( 

(If you are one of those people, don’t worry. We ARE praying for you. The app just isn’t showing it.)

### 3/5 — Still pretty glitchy

*2019-03-20*

Such a great idea, I love the website but the app after years is still glitchy. Notes don’t always send, I scroll down and pray and when I open the app later it’s hit or miss whether the prayers were counted. I just hope the people who are really in need of encouragement aren’t suffering for it.

### 3/5 — Technical issues

*2018-12-30*

Purpose is great. However, the app doesn’t adapt itself well to the screen size of an iPhone SE. When trying to create an account for PrayerWorks the sign-up screen does not adjust size so that you can manipulate the entry fields or buttons, they are off of the screen. Also, the Feedback link for technical support is broken so that left only this method of feedback.

### 2/5 — Good idea

*2018-07-26*

I love this app with the idea that I can pray for others and have them pray for me. But every time I go into the app it makes me change my password. It says it’s not valid. It  has to be right it’s saved on my iPhone when I make the new password. Can this be fixed. It is very frustrating to have to long I to the internet change it then go back only to have it say it’s wrong.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2018-05-13*

I install this app and all I get is a white screen. Please fix!

### 4/5 — So rewarding

*2018-01-19*

I believe in the power this app has in that it allows a world of people to pray for someone. I did not give it five stars because I am not able to access what the policy or understandings are if I write a note to someone. I also don’t understand if others actually see my email with a note or if the app actually sends the note.

### 1/5 — Update

*2017-08-03, version 1.01*

Please update this app to iOS 11

### 1/5 — It keeps saying loading

*2017-06-06*

I downloaded the app and opened it and for over an hour it just says loading. I got a new phone and I deleted it and re-downloaded the app and the same💔 I love This app but it breaks my heart I can't use! Otherwise i would give it 4 stars.😥 please update this app. It says this app won't work with newer versions of iOS. It says that u the creator of the app needs to update the app so it will load.
