Tap Write a prayer in My Prayers. It’s your own words, saved the moment you write them - no forced templates. If you’d like a gentle structure, turn on Use a prompt to see optional prompts (ACTS, PRAY, SOAP, and more); every line stays skippable.
Open a prayer and tap Mark answered, then add an optional note on how it was answered. You can add another update any time it changes - the answered log is a record, not a one-time badge.
Tag a prayer by person or topic and add it to a named list from the tag/list editor. Use search (the magnifying glass in My Prayers) to find any prayer, filter by Open or Answered, and sort by date written or recently answered.
Mark a prayer private to lock it behind Face ID or your device passcode. This is always free. If your device has no biometrics or passcode set up, the app never hard-locks you out of your own prayer.
Open the Keepsake tab to see your Answered Prayers gathered into a keepsake - the complete, on-screen preview is always free. Exporting, printing, or sharing it as a PDF is the one-time Psalmly unlock.
