Pray before you scroll
On the schedule you set, your chosen apps wait behind a short prayer built around
where you're at mentally, physically, and spiritually, in that given moment.
One devotion in less than 60 seconds, and a prayer habit that sticks.
You have said you will pray more. Probably yesterday. And the day before that.The phone is why it does not happen.
A short prayer stands between you and the scroll.
On your terms.
Pick the apps you reach for too much. Pick the times you want a pause. When one of those moments hits, PrayArch is there before the app loads, built right into your iPhone's Screen Time. This isn't a notification you can wave off. The app stays closed until you've prayed.
You pray. Your apps open. You move on.

A DEVOTION IN LESS THAN
6O
seconds
Short enough to do every time.
Long enough to mean something.
First you check in on how you're feeling. Your prayer is built around that, plus a Bible verse in your translation. It takes about a minute, so you'll actually keep doing it. But it's real personalized prayer, generic prayer you skip through.
How PrayARCH works
What happens when you reach for a blocked app
During the window you set, your chosen apps wait behind a short devotion. You check in on how you're feeling, then get a prayer built around that and a Bible verse in your translation. Your apps open. About a minute, and it's a real moment with God before the scroll.
Watch the habit build in
real time
Every devotion you finish grows your streak. See your prayers, your best streak, the blocked-app opens you've caught, and the time you've won back. Earn milestone badges along the way and watch the habit take shape.
A new Bible verse every day, in the translation of your choice.
Open the Scripture tab anytime for the day's verse in the translation you read, or check it from your home screen widget. During a devotion, the verse you get is matched to how you're feeling that day.
When you want to go deeper
Some days the daily devotion isn't enough. Pick a context like prayer, study, or worship, set how long you want, and your chosen apps stay dark for the whole session. You start this one yourself, on the days you mean it.
Different ways to build the habit
Pray before the feed
Set your devotion for the morning. When you reach for your phone, your apps wait behind a short prayer first. You start the day with God instead of the scroll.
A quieter evening
Set your devotion for the night. Reach for your phone and you get a prayer and a verse first, so the evening ends with God instead of an hour you didn't mean to lose.
Go deeper when you want to
Start a Time with God session any time you want to focus. Pick a context like prayer, study, or worship, choose the apps to block, and set how long. You start this one yourself, on the days you mean it.
Make room for rest
Set your devotion for Sunday morning, or start a Time with God session through the service. Either way, the noise stays quiet so worship and rest get your full attention.
Study and work without the pull
Set your devotion to cover your work hours, or start a Time with God session for a clean stretch. The pull of your phone steps back so you can think.
Everything that helps you put
God first
Social, video, games, browsers - any app you choose. Daily lock blocks everything at your set time until you complete your devotion. Time with God sessions block your selected apps for the full duration.
Start with a quick check-in on how you're feeling, and your prayer is built around that. Real words for what you're carrying that day, not a generic prayer you've read a hundred times before.
A new Bible verse every day in the translation of your choice. Open it any time from the Scripture tab or your home screen, and share the ones that speak to you.
Every devotion you finish adds to your streak. Hit a milestone and earn a badge that's yours to keep. A simple way to see the habit grow and stay encouraged to come back the next day.
Want to go deeper? Start a session any time. Pick a moment like prayer, study, or worship, choose the apps to block, and set how long. You start this one yourself, on the days you mean it.
Keep God close without opening the app. Add a widget for your daily verse, your streak, or your devotion status, right on your home screen where you'll see it all through the day.
Every prayer you receive is saved for you. Look back on what you brought before God, see how He's met you over time, and revisit the words that helped when you needed them most.
Your prayers, scripture, and progress live on your phone. Travel, weak signal, or airplane mode, your daily devotion still works.
