Review summary

Users consistently praise Pray First for strengthening prayer life, ease of use, rich content (guided prayers, videos, scriptures, plans) and practical prayer lists with private/public options. They especially note its calming music and free access to resources. However, recurring concerns center on sign-in/login problems (blank screens or forced guest access) and trouble accessing or loading prayer-list details. Some request enhancements like dark mode or expanded text. Overall, the app is valued for its spiritual impact and practicality, with a couple of technical improvements needed.

Pros

Deepens and focuses prayer life, helping users pray more intentionally.
Easy to use with a professional, visually pleasing UI.
Rich, scripture-based content with guided prayers, videos, prayer plans, and worship music.
Strong prayer-list features for creating, organizing, viewing, and managing lists with private/public options (and sharing).
Free access to resources and tools, making practical prayer support widely available.

Cons

Login/signup issues (blank screen after sign-in; some users report being stuck with guest access).
Prayer-list accessibility and details loading problems (difficulty loading details when tapping topics or accessing lists).

2026-02-07	fl*****	With much of the content from this app moved to the Highlands App, would it be possible to bring the actual prayer list to the forefront? Currently you have to scroll just to get to the list. It would be nice if the list showed up first! (Or at least and option to allow it)

2023-04-16	Fa*****	I love the prayers and resources they provide and the aesthetic of the app is very professional, pleasing. There is a character limit on the titles of your prayers and you can’t fully expand the prayer and make it full screen. I would use it more for the prayers they provide and to help you write your own.

2023-01-11	Bo*****	For many years I’ve built prayer lists and used prayer models, but the video guided prayers based on scripture in this app are so insightful. They are so helpful to deepen my prayer and my focus on God’s guidance and providing. Thanks to Chris Hodges for the Prayer First concept and for Church of The Highlands for such a practical resource
