Thoughts and Prayers
Read full descriptionHide full description
Everyone needs help sometimes. People lose someone they love, get a diagnosis they weren't ready for, lose a job, or carry something heavy they can't say out loud. Thoughts and Prayers is a place to set that down - and a place to pick up someone else's. This is a global prayer list. Post what's on your heart, read what other people are carrying, and pray for them. Every prayer you tap "I prayed" on is one more person who knows they weren't ignored. NO ACCOUNT, NO SIGNUP Open the app and you're in. No email, no password, no profile to build. Post under a name or anonymously - your choice, prayer by prayer. Look for "Prayers" on your Home Screen - that's us. SHARE WHAT'S ON YOUR HEART Write a prayer in a few taps and add a category if it helps people find it. That's the whole process. PRAY FOR OTHERS Browse the global list, search for what you want to pray over, and tap "I prayed" so the person knows someone is with them. Leave a word of encouragement in the comments. KEEP TRACK OF YOUR OWN My Prayers holds everything you've posted in one place, so you can come back to it - and mark a prayer as answered when it is. A VERSE EACH DAY A new Bible verse every day, with a place to mark the ones you've studied and share the ones that land. ON YOUR WRIST AND HOME SCREEN Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets put the verse of the day where you'll see it. The Apple Watch app shows the verse and the prayer feed, and lets you tap "I prayed" without reaching for your phone. ELEVEN LANGUAGES English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Filipino. QUIET AND SAFE Report anything that doesn't belong and our moderation team reviews it. Block someone and you won't see their posts again. Turn on notifications if you want to know when there's a message for you, or leave them off. No ads. No tracking. No feed built to keep you scrolling. YOUR DATA IS YOURS There's no account to close, but if you want everything gone, Settings has one button that permanently deletes your prayers, comments, activity, and messages. Prayer stays free. Not a trial, not an introductory offer - the heart of this app is free and stays that way. Share a prayer. Carry someone else's. Nobody should have to do it alone.
