Set up a personalized prayer plan, stay accountable with streaks, and reflect on your journey through built-in journaling.

How it works Choose how often you want to pray each day, set your preferred duration, and pick the times that work best for your schedule. Prayer Shield sends gentle reminders when it's time to pause and connect with God.

Guided prayer timer A calm, focused prayer screen with a countdown timer helps you stay present. Complete each session with an "Amen" to log your prayer and keep your streak alive.

Streak tracking
Watch your consistency grow with daily streaks. View your prayer history on a visual heatmap and track stats like your best streak, total prayers, and completion rate.
Journal your prayers
After each prayer, jot down what's on your heart. Browse past entries, edit them, or delete them. Your journal stays private and is stored entirely on your device.
Flexible plan settings
Adjust your prayer type, frequency, duration, and strictness at any time. Prayer Shield adapts to your life, not the other way around.

Privacy first
All your data stays on your device. No accounts, no cloud sync, no tracking. Your prayer life is between you and God.

How PrayerShield uses the Accessibility API Service
PrayerShield uses Android's Accessibility Service to detect when you open
an app you have chosen to shield, so it can show a prayer screen before
that app loads. This is the core function of the app and it cannot work
without this permission.

The service only checks which app is currently in the foreground. It does
not read screen content, does not record what you type, and does not
collect or transmit any personal data. You can turn it off at any time in
Settings > Accessibility.
