Prayminder is a calm, beautifully crafted prayer app that makes it simple to pray through the day and turn prayer into a habit. More than 30 million prayer reminders have gone out to people around the world. Add prayers, Scripture, or any words you want to return to, and Prayminder brings them back to you with gentle reminders across your day. It is free, private by design, and works without an account. HOW IT WORKS Write down your prayer topics. Choose how often you want to be reminded. When a reminder arrives, take a moment to pray, then carry on with your day. Over time, those small moments become a rhythm, and you get to make prayer a habit in the middle of a busy everyday life. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Keep your prayers in one place and organize them into groups, such as family, church, or work - Set your own reminder schedule, from a few times a day to whatever suits your life - Read the Bible in the app, with translations provided through YouVersion - Attach Bible verses to your prayers - See a simple record of how your prayer rhythm is growing - Receive reminders reliably, even when your phone has been asleep for hours PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your prayers are personal. They are stored on your phone and never leave your device. You can use the whole app without the need to create an account. The app is free, shows no ads, and your data is yours only. MADE AS A MINISTRY Prayminder is made by Panos and Emma, a husband and wife who have been building it as a ministry since 2017, so that anyone can keep turning back to God in the middle of ordinary days. It is free for everyone and open to Christians of every tradition.
