Have you noticed how easily we lose track of when God answers our prayers? I sure did, that's why I created Arbor. Now there's a growing record of every single time God has shown up exactly when I needed Him. There's no better Father anywhere else. "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus." - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Arbor is the first app of its kind that allows you to: • Track answered prayers automatically (and unanswered ones too) • Add journal entries with just your voice so you can pray out loud and let Arbor do the writing • Block distracting apps so you spend more time with God • Make notes as you pray so you never lose a train of thought during devotion • Tag prayers by category, date, and more • Quickly summarize prayers, useful for long heart-to-hearts with our Father • Analyze your prayer stats with a simple dashboard of how your journey is developing Imagine if every minute you spent doomscrolling was spent with Go Terms & Conditions, visit: https://arborprayer.app/terms Privacy Policy, visit: Privacy Policy: https://arborprayer.app/privacy
