Prayer Lock
Prayer first. Everything else can wait.
Read the daily readings, pray a full Rosary, or complete a single decade before your selected distracting apps unlock. Choose the goal that fits your prayer routine.

- Choose a meaningful goalDaily readings, a full Rosary, or a single decade.
- Make room for prayerFollow your chosen reading or prayer goal in Marian.
- Return with intentionComplete your goal to unlock the apps you selected.
Prayer Lock limits the apps you select; it does not lock your entire phone. Built on Apple’s Screen Time, it gives you a gentle boundary around distractions. Completing an in-app goal cannot measure your attention or sincerity in prayer. Prayer Lock is part of Marian Patron.
