Your phone keeps
stealing your salah.
I pray locks the apps pulling you away from Allah — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, whatever distracts you — the moment the adhan is called. They stay dark until you actually pray.

Sound familiar?
It was never about weak iman.
You love Allah. You want to pray on time. So why is it this hard?
The moment of adhan
The adhan calls — and you're three reels deep. “Just one more.” Then it's Maghrib, and Dhuhr never happened.
The promise you keep breaking
“I'll pray in five minutes.” You mean it every single time. Five minutes quietly becomes the next prayer.
The guilt afterwards
You make wudu late, rushed, distracted — and a small voice asks why connecting with Allah keeps losing to a screen.
You're not weak. You're outnumbered.
Those apps are engineered by thousands of the smartest people alive, paid to keep you scrolling. Your willpower against a billion-dollar attention machine was never a fair fight.
So stop fighting it alone.
How it works
Most prayer apps just notify you.
I pray removes the distraction.
A reminder is easy to dismiss. A locked app isn't. That single difference is why I pray works when notifications never did.
Choose your apps
Pick the exact apps that pull you away — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games, browsers. Your list, your call.
The adhan calls — they go dark
At prayer time (or minutes before), the apps you chose lock themselves. No notification to swipe away. They simply won't open.
Pray — then they unlock
Mark your salah as prayed and your apps come back. The only key that opens them is the prayer itself.
No bypass. No shortcut. Turn on Strict Mode and the lock holds — even when the weakest version of you tries to talk you out of it.
You've seen how it works. Now let it work for you.

Everything for your five daily prayers
One app instead of five
Prayer times, adhan, qibla, calendar — and the lock that finally makes you use them. All in one calm, beautiful place.
The Salah Lock
The heart of I pray. Distracting apps lock the moment the adhan calls and stay locked until you pray. Built on Apple's Screen Time API.
Accurate prayer times
Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib and Isha — precise to your exact location, with pre-prayer warnings so you're never caught off guard.
Authentic adhan
Real adhan recitations from Makkah and Madinah call you to prayer — never a generic beep you learn to ignore.
Qibla compass
Find the direction of the Kaaba in seconds, with smooth haptic feedback that guides you as you turn.
Hijri calendar & daily hadith
Today's Islamic date at a glance, and a hadith paired with every prayer to keep your heart present.
Streaks you'll protect
Every prayer on time builds a streak and an on-time score. Consistency turns into something you genuinely don't want to break.
Multiple calculation methods (ISNA, MWL, Umm al-Qura, Karachi and more) · Shafi & Hanafi Asr · thoughtful handling for women's days.
A look inside
Built to calm you, not capture you
Every screen is quiet, warm and deliberate — a space that draws you toward prayer instead of pulling you into a feed.
Stop reading about it. Start praying on time.
Your trust
An app that locks your apps.
It never watches them.
Letting an app manage your other apps is a real trust. Here is exactly how I pray earns it.
It stays on your device
Your prayer history, your app choices, your location — all of it lives on your iPhone and never leaves it.
Built on Apple's Screen Time API
I pray uses the same private framework Apple built for Screen Time. It can lock an app — it can never see inside it.
No account. Ever.
No sign-up, no email, no password. Open the app and you're already in. There's nothing to hack and nothing to leak.
No ads. Nothing sold.
We don't track you and we don't sell data — because there is none to sell, and there never will be.
Honest answers
Every reason to hesitate, answered
By default, you can still unlock your apps in a genuine emergency — I pray trusts you. If you want that door fully closed so the only way out is to pray, switch on Strict Mode. It's your choice, set once.
It really locks them. I pray is built on Apple's Screen Time API, so the apps you choose simply won't open during prayer time. There's no notification to swipe away and no willpower required — that's the whole point.
No. The lock runs through Apple's built-in system framework, not a background process quietly eating your battery. You won't notice it until the adhan calls.
Never. No sign-up, no email, no password. Download the app, allow location for accurate prayer times, and you're ready in under a minute.
Any app on your iPhone — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, X, Reddit, games, browsers, whatever pulls you away. You pick the exact list and can change it anytime.
The honest truth? You won't know until your next adhan. Let it be the first one you don't miss.
Picture six months from now
Become the one who
never misses Fajr.
Every adhan answered. A streak you'd never break. The quiet confidence of a believer whose deen comes first. That version of you is one download away.
حَافِظُوا عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ
“Guard strictly the prayers.” — Surah Al-Baqarah 2:238
Never miss a prayer again.
The next adhan is coming. Give your phone back to Allah before it calls — install I pray and let the lock do the rest.
