I have tried many different prayer apps and found all of them wanting except this one! It doesn’t have pretty colors, or multiple text styles, or music, or lovely background pictures that some do. It doesn’t come with ‘built in’ devotions, or daily ‘encouraging’ words. It is easily amendable, easily navigated, and loaded with great reminders from GOD’S WORD, which is where genuine prayer resides! The User can decide on how to pursue devoted prayer and is given options for adding, changing and modifying text, prayers and bible versions. For me, it’s a FIVE STAR app, with one small exception…at times, it is not clear how to make certain changes happen and take effect, but once learned it is everything a devotee of prayer could want. It truly puts the User “in the driver’s seat” and eliminates the temptation to let the app dictate your prayer time.

I had a bit of a learning curve to figure out how to make it useful. I really love it now that I figured out how to add to it and generally make it do what I want.

I have loved this app for the several years I’ve been using it. I would have given it 5-stars if not for one thing that is a major issue to me. I use the app on both my iPhone and my iPad, but the only way to sync them is to do backups to Drop Box. While not crazy about having to use an additional app to backup, I was ok with that—that is, until a few months ago when it stopped backing up easily to my phone which is what I usually use it on. To get it to work, I have to log out of Drop Box on Prayer Prompter, then log back in to Drop Box, then since I go out of Prayer Prompter to do that and have it passworded, I have to renter the password & then back it up. I have to do this every. single. time. I am getting very tired of it. Both my phone and my ipad were purchased this year within a couple of months, but this problem only happens on my phone, the one I use almost all of the time for prayers. I tried writing to the developer about it back in July and they just gave an excuse that they didn't currently have a programmer to fix it & need to replace them and I quote “until then, you will have to continue to use the method that you have discovered. I complement you on being able to figure that out” in a very condescending tone. Well, no. After giving them an additional four plus months to make it right, I DON’T have to continue—I can start shopping around for a better method of tracking prayers. And that is what I intend to do. I might have enjoyed using this for several years, but apparently I’ve outgrown it. It is not worth having to experience tedious frustration twice a day.

I’ve been using this app for at least 7 years, maybe 10. It is a great way to organize all of the categories of prayers that a person might want to cover. I love that it starts with the ACTS prayers, and pairs scripture with them. You can customize additional catories in any way that you like. I have categories for myself, family, bible study members’ requests, home group members requests, our country, etc. You can set up the timing interval for seeing each request to be anything from every day to a much lower frequency. Prayers which have been answered can be moved to an “Answered Prayers” or “Praise” category. The flexibility of this app is excellent, while also providing a foundational structure to begin with.

I continue to be thrilled with this app. This app is a daily delight for me.

This is a great app that shuffles the things you want to pray for based on a frequency you set. Bible passages to pray are already in the app as well, and you can easily add passages from the Book of Common Worship or another source, it’s totally customizable. Takes some time to set up but totally worth it once you do.

The reminders worked fine at first but then stopped. Contacted customer service and they said something about somebody having a baby?? Confusing. Why would it work for a week or two then stop. It’s very strange.

This App is easy to use and really helps me to stay focused with an open heart to the Holy Spirit. It has been a struggle for me to have some consistency in my prayer life. This app is very helpful. Thank You.

The developers indicated - quite some time ago - that the ability to sync with other devices was coming soon. Still waiting. Not everyone uses Dropbox, nor should we have to. As great as this app could be, the absence of the ability to sync is a “deal beaker” for me and for many, many others. Neither will I input information in two devices, nor will I pay for an external cloud storage service.
