The Pray App vs Sword Drill

Create prayer cards for the people and situations on your heart. When it's time to pray, the app guides you through them one at a time. You can create prayers in bulk, customize how often they show up, and see a history of what you've prayed for over time. We also have a journal and custom bible reading plan generator so everything you need for your quiet time is in one place. When God answers a prayer, mark it off. Over time, you'll build a quiet record of how He's been working. On hard days, that matters. FEATURES - Prayer cards with categories (Family, Health, Work, and more) - Create prayer cards in bulk (just paste a list, we'll do the rest) - Suggested Bible verses matched to your prayers - Daily, weekly, or monthly schedules per card - Simple, distraction-free prayer sessions - Journal for reflection, including journaling on the back of prayer cards - Prayer streak to encourage consistency - Pray for contacts and send encouragement after SUPPORTER OPTION This app exists to help people show up before the Lord. We won't show ads or sell your data. For this to keep running, we need servers, security, and people who care. That costs money. Your support keeps the app running for everyone who needs it, but it is not obligated. As a thank you, supporters get increases on some features that have limits. But honestly, the core app will always be free. YOUR PRAYERS ARE PRIVATE Your prayers are yours. We encrypt them, we don't read them, and we never sell your data.

Remember "Sword Drills" in Sunday School? The teacher whould announce a verse and see who could find it and read it to the class first. This app was built from that concept. It provides an expedited view of bible chapters/verses from BibleGateway.com. It add quick buttons to select the last several verses/passages most recently retrieved which enhances Bible study cross referencing. This was my first app first published when the App Store was barely a month old back in 2008. It was pulled from the store when the original 32 bit apps were disallowed because at the time I didn't have the time to update it. With the advent of AI, I was able to feed my old project and have AI turn it into a modern SwiftUI version in just a few minutes. There are other Bible Reading apps out there but this one is lightweight and agile in ways that are helpful. Sword Drill is a focused, native front-end for Bible Gateway. Pick a book, enter a chapter or verse, choose a translation, and read — without ads, banners, or site navigation getting in the way. FEATURES • Distraction-free reading — Ads, banners, and page chrome are automatically filtered out so you see only the passage text. Ad network requests are blocked to save bandwidth. • Three translation buttons — Tap KJV, NKJV, NASB, or customize the buttons in Settings with any version Bible Gateway supports. • Recent passages — Your five most recent lookups appear as quick-access buttons for fast reference. • Keep screen awake — Toggle the screen lock so your device stays on while you read or study. • Designed for accssibility. Every control has been enabled for voice over and color scheme updated for those with color discrimination issues. Sword Drill is not affiliated with Bible Gateway.
