## What is Selah?

Selah is a pause before the scroll.

When you reach for the app that keeps pulling you back, Selah meets you first — for about ten seconds. A verse. A prompt. A moment of prayer. Then you decide whether to carry on.

It isn't a wall. It's the small gap between the reach and the scroll, where a choice becomes possible again.

A MOMENT
Each pause is different: a verse to sit with, a line to complete, something to be grateful for, a prayer that's been answered, or a quiet moment before God. Ten seconds, then the choice is yours.

YOUR PSALMS, KEPT
What you write stays. Over weeks it becomes an archive of your own — reflections, gratitude, answered prayers — and a record of the times you stepped away.

SEE WHERE THE TIME GOES
Selah shows your screen time for the apps you've chosen to guard, day by day, so the pattern is visible rather than vague.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No login. Everything you write for yourself — psalms, prayers, reflections — stays on your phone. Selah downloads its scripture and prompts without sending anything about you. The only things that leave are ones you choose: a feature request, if you send one, and your subscription, which the App Store handles.

Selah appears throughout the Psalms. Its meaning is uncertain, but it has long been read as a rest in the music — a moment to stop, breathe, and lift your eyes before the song goes on.

SUBSCRIPTION
Selah Pro unlocks the app: $5.99 per month, or $49.99 per year with a 3-day free trial. Prices are shown in your local currency before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation, and the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel in your Apple ID settings.
