Pray Then Scroll

Pray then scroll. Every time.
You picked up your phone to check one thing. An hour later, you're still scrolling — and you haven't prayed today.
Pray Then Scroll changes that. Every day starts with a quiet check-in: How's your relationship with God? How are you feeling? Then you receive your prayer of the day — sometimes one you know by heart, sometimes one you've never met before but needed to hear.
After that, your phone works for you instead of against you. The apps that pull you in — Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit, YouTube — stay locked on your schedule. 9 to 5. 9 AM to 9 PM. Whatever you choose. When you reach for them, you're invited to pray first. Pray, then scroll.
How it works

Open the app each morning. Answer two questions: How's your relationship with God? How are you feeling?
Receive your prayer of the day. Sit with it as long as you need.
Set your lock schedule. Choose which apps and which hours.
Live your day. When you try to open a locked app, you pray first. Then you scroll.

Built for Catholics who want to live it, not just believe it
Every day brings a new prayer — chosen for you. You'll find the ones you grew up with, the ones you whisper without thinking. And you'll discover prayers you've never heard before, written by saints and souls who knew exactly what you're feeling today.
The check-in is short. Honest. Just you and God, before the world gets loud.
Why it works
Willpower isn't a strategy. Guilt isn't a strategy. But changing what happens when you reach for your phone — that works.
Every reach becomes a small reach toward Him. Over a week, that's a hundred prayers you wouldn't have prayed. Over a month, it's a different relationship with your phone — and a different relationship with God.
What you'll notice in the first week
You'll open social media less. A lot less. You'll start your day with a prayer instead of a feed. You'll discover prayers that feel like they were written for the exact thing you're going through. And the moments you used to lose to scrolling will start feeling like they belong to you again.
Privacy first
We don't watch what you do inside other apps. We don't sell your data. Your check-ins, your prayers, your feelings — they stay between you and God.
Free to try. Set your schedule, lock one app, and start receiving your daily prayer for free. Upgrade for full app locking, your full prayer history, and unlimited scheduling.

"Pray, hope, and don't worry." — St. Padre Pio
The next time you reach for your phone, reach for Him first.
