Inner Room is a free, distraction-free prayer app from 24-7 Prayer that turns a phone into a quiet personal prayer space for praying for what matters.^1 Its name follows Jesus' words quoted on its Give page: "But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father..." (Matthew 6:6).^4
Prayer cards capture the people and situations you care about, so you can come back to them anytime to read, reflect, or pray in your own words.^1 Prayer Pots group those cards so they stay findable, and a card can carry a key date and reminders.^1 Daily prayers from 24-7 Prayer join you to its global community, and guided prayers rooted in Scripture give words for different moments, to use as they are or to shape your own.^1 You can share a prayer so others can join you in it, and personalise the space with colour themes.^2 Personal prayers stay available offline, while guided prayer needs a connection, and no account is required.^1 Your prayers are private: the app does not read, analyse, or share their content.^4
24-7 Prayer began in 1999, when founder Pete Greig gathered friends to start praying; he recalls, "We weren't trying to start a movement, but God showed up, the thing went crazy and now we are in over 100 countries."^5 Inner Room launched in 2018 and has now been rebuilt from the ground up, so content from the old app does not carry over automatically.^6 Monthly supporters help keep it free and accessible.^4 Churches can offer it as a free resource, with slides, videos, and graphics to introduce it.^7
"I would often come to pray but end up not really knowing who to pray for and what to focus on. This app has helped me structure my prayer time, pray for a bigger variety of things and learn to listen to God whilst praying."^1 Markg - App Store
"This is a really simple but effective app that provides real motivation to pray but without interfering with the actual act of praying."^1 PRB0810 - App Store
