GraceLock is a Christian prayer app and app blocker that turns screen time into prayer time.
Block Instagram, TikTok, and other distracting apps until you pray first. Build a daily prayer habit naturally — every time you reach for your phone becomes an opportunity to connect with God.
Free to use. 100+ handcrafted prayers for every mood. Native Screen Time integration.
THE ONLY APP BLOCKER BUILT FOR CHRISTIANS
Unlike other screen time apps that feel punitive, GraceLock transforms every unlock into an opportunity to connect with God. Unlike prayer apps that you forget to open, GraceLock meets you exactly where you are — reaching for your phone.
Perfect for Lent, Advent, or any time you want to grow closer to God through spiritual discipline.
