"I'll pray for you." Then the day gets away from you, and by evening you can't remember who asked. Prayer Notes is where that promise goes the moment you make it. Write it down in ten seconds, put it on a day of the week, and it comes back round when you sit down to pray. Fifteen years and thousands of people later, that is still the whole idea. TEN SECONDS, BEFORE YOU FORGET Someone asks on a Sunday morning. Type a title, type what they need, done. Add the verse you want to pray over it, a photo, the days you want it to come up. File it under Family, Church, Work — or whatever categories fit your life. A LIST FOR EVERY DAY Seven days, seven lists. Sunday's requests on Sunday, Thursday's on Thursday — the method people have kept in paper notebooks for generations, with today's list on your Home Screen, your Lock Screen and your Apple Watch. PRAY TOGETHER Start a group for your small group, your family or your church, and invite the people you choose. Everyone sees the same requests, posts their own, adds an update when something changes, and taps to say they prayed. Your personal prayers stay personal — only what you post is shared. THE ANSWERS STAY Mark a prayer answered and it moves to its own list with the date and what happened. Months later it is still there. People tell us this is the part they reread — the record of what God actually did, in their own words. A JOURNAL FOR QUIET TIME Write what you read and what it stirred, with the passage attached. Browse it by date or by book of the Bible, so you can see everywhere Psalms has met you this year. WHEN THE WORDS DON'T COME Some mornings you have nothing. Prayer Builder takes today's list and writes an outline with matching scripture, right on your iPhone — nothing is sent anywhere. Edit it, pray it, or just use it to start. PRAYERS IN SCRIPTURE Hannah's prayer. David's. The one Jesus taught. Read them, pray them as they stand, or build your own from any verse — six translations included. FOCUS WHILE YOU PRAY Set a timer and let Prayer Focus quiet the apps that would have interrupted you. YOURS, EVERYWHERE iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Mac, in sync through iCloud. Face ID lock. Widgets. Nightly backups you can restore, and an export you can keep. YOUR PRAYERS COME WITH YOU If you have been using Prayer Notes for years, everything you have written is already here — every request, every answer, every journal entry, in the same categories. Nothing is deleted and the old database is kept untouched in case you ever want it back. Previous in-app purchases are still honored. Write it down. Pray it. Watch God answer.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: WWJD at none against Prayer Notes's shown. Prayer Notes's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 374). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Prayer Notes sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and WWJD sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
WWJD holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Prayer Notes has 3.8K ratings behind it against 374, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 76% of Prayer Notes's written reviews are positive against 79% of WWJD's.
Prayer Notes ships an update every 6 days, WWJD every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
