Terms of use

Prayer Guard is an iPhone app that blocks apps you choose, at times you choose, until you pray or read a Bible chapter. By installing and using it you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, delete the app.

It is not medical, psychological, pastoral or professional advice, and it is not a treatment for any condition, including compulsive phone use. If you are struggling with something serious, please talk to a doctor, a counsellor or your pastor.

Blocking depends on Apple’s Screen Time frameworks and on the permissions you grant. Restarting the device, revoking Screen Time authorization, deleting the app or a change in iOS can all interrupt it. We cannot guarantee an app will always be blocked when you expect it to be, and you remain responsible for your own use of your phone.

You can remove all blocking at any time from a single control in Settings — no prayer and no delay required.

Version 1.0 is free and has no subscriptions or in-app purchases. If paid features are ever added, they will be billed through your Apple Account, and the price and billing period shown at the time of purchase will be the ones that apply. Refunds are handled by Apple.

The bundled Bible translations are used under their respective licences and are reproduced verbatim with attribution. The written prayers are provided for your personal use within the app. Please do not extract or redistribute the app’s content as your own.

The app is provided as is, without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of it.

These terms may change as the app changes. The date at the top shows the current version.
