WHAT’S NEXT? VERSION 3.0! Lord willing!
Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit.” Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. For you are just a vapor that appears for a little while, and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.” (James 4:13-14)

★ Offer new users a choice of KJV or NASB for free and other popular translations as an in-app purchase.
★ A global search capability for Folder Titles and Entry Titles.
★ A “Bookmark” feature that saves your place within a long entry and automatically scrolls down to your place when you return.
★ A “Scripture Memorization” capability that will be fully integrated within Prayer Prompter’s file and folder system
★ An option to sort Scripture entries in canonical (Bible) order

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Prayer Prompter has been a labor of love from its conception in 2011 to this day. It has always been free, generating no revenue of its own, despite costing the developer more than $50,000 in personal savings. As time goes by, it has become more difficult just to keep up with the cost of maintaining compatibility with annual iOS releases, not to mention adding new features and functionality.

As a result, we need your support in order to continue maintaining and improving Prayer Prompter. After setting up a GoFundMe account in December of 2020 and successfully raising almost $3,000 to pay for the release of Version 2.7, we have launched another GoFundMe with a goal of $3,625 to pay for Version 2.8. If you have been blessed by the use of Prayer Prompter, would you prayerfully consider making a donation to help us fund the latest upgrade and continue development?
