Choose the apps that take most of your time: social media, short videos, games, anything. When you open one, Faith Lock covers it with today's verse. Tap "Pray to unlock", take a quiet minute with God, and your apps open for the time you choose. Then they lock again on their own. PRAY BEFORE YOU SCROLL • Lock any apps, categories or websites with Apple's Screen Time • Opening a locked app shows today's Gospel verse and "Pray to unlock" • Unlock for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, an hour or the rest of the day • Apps lock again by themselves, so there's nothing to remember YOUR DAY WITH GOD, ON ONE SCREEN • The new Today tab brings together your verse, today's prayer and your streak • Say Amen to mark today's prayer • See your Faith Lock status and this week's prayers at a glance A FREE BIBLE VERSE EVERY DAY • A new verse from the Gospels each morning • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Verse reminders at the time you pick • A daily prayer shaped around what you told us you need BUILD A PRAYER HABIT THAT STICKS • Prayer streaks with milestones at 3, 7, 14, 30, 50 and 100 days • Every prayer that unlocks your apps counts toward your streak • A gentle evening nudge when your streak is about to slip GOSPEL-BASED REFLECTION AND JOURNAL • Ask about a verse, a worry or a decision and get a reflection rooted in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John • Your reflections are saved in your Journal so you can reread them • Your first reflection is free PRIVATE BY DESIGN Apple keeps your app choices private: Faith Lock never sees which apps you lock, and Screen Time data never leaves your iPhone. It is never used for advertising. ALWAYS FREE Faith Lock, your daily verse and prayer, streaks, reminders and widgets are free.
