End the day with a calm Catholic night prayer. Night Prayer helps you slow down before bed. You pray by reading the prayer text, verse by verse, while gentle, calming music plays in the background to help you rest. Open the app at night, choose what your heart needs, and pray along in a dark, quiet interface designed for bedtime. WHAT YOU CAN PRAY - Night prayers for gratitude, forgiveness, hope, family, grief, anxiety, protection, and inner healing - Psalms for sleep, peace, trust, and protection, including Psalm 91 - Rosary sessions made for rest, including a short decade for sleep and the full mysteries - Gospel stories and sacred readings for a calmer night - Compline and an examination of conscience READ ALONG, REST EASY There is no narrator and no spoken prayer. You read the words yourself, at your own pace, while you choose the calming music that helps you wind down: felt piano, Gregorian chant, rain, fireplace, or wind. The app is trilingual: English, Portuguese, and Spanish, switchable anytime. Everything works completely offline. All prayers, texts, and music are bundled in the app, so you can pray with no internet connection. BUILT FOR BEDTIME This is not a noisy habit tracker or a daytime content library. Night Prayer is designed for the moment when the day is over, the room is dark, and you want to place your worries in God's hands. Use it when you want a prayer before sleep, a Psalm for protection, a Catholic Rosary at night, or a quiet way to calm anxious thoughts with faith. It is a Bible and Scripture companion for devotion to Jesus at night, including Psalm 91 protection themes. FREE FOREVER, SUPPORTED BY YOU Everything is open and free, always — no trial, no locked content, no ads. If Night Prayer does you good, you can support the small team that keeps it alive: become a Friend, Supporter, Patron, or a one-time Lifetime Benefactor. Your support funds new prayers and keeps the app free for everyone. The app stays 100% free with or without it. IMPORTANT Night Prayer offers spiritual prayer and devotional reading. It is not medical advice, therapy, diagnosis, or treatment. If you are experiencing severe anxiety, insomnia, or distress, please seek help from a qualified professional.

About

Blessy

Blessy is a real alarm clock that turns off one way only: by praying. When the alarm rings, join your hands in front of the camera. Blessy detects your prayer posture on your own iPhone, and once you complete your moment of prayer the morning opens up: a verse for your day, your streak grows, and you begin with God instead of your phone. HOW IT WORKS 1. Set your alarm. It is a true system alarm — it rings even in Silent mode or during a Focus. 2. When it rings, the only visible way out is prayer. Join your hands and stay in prayer for the time you chose yourself. 3. Receive the Word. A different verse every morning, with its context, ready to save and share. YOUR JOURNEY • Streaks with mercy: grace days protect your consistency when life gets in the way. • A path of levels — from Dawn to Watchman of the Dawn — that grows with your mornings. • Milestones, insights, and a calendar of your mornings in prayer. MADE FOR THE MORNING • Alarm sounds composed to wake you gently: bells, harp, strings, songbirds, living waters. • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets: verse of the day, streak, and next morning. • In English and Spanish, with Scripture set in a serif face meant to be read slowly. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Prayer detection runs entirely on your iPhone, using Apple's vision frameworks. • No image is ever recorded, stored, or transmitted. Ever. • No accounts, no sign-up. Your progress can back up to your own iCloud if you choose. Blessy is offered as a subscription (annual plan with a free trial, or a weekly plan). Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. Terms: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy: https://blessyapp.com/privacy Tomorrow, when it rings, don't negotiate. Pray.
