Our Mission
Fostering spiritual discipline and mindfulness in a digitally distracted world.
About PausePray
PausePray was born from a simple observation: in our hyper-connected world, we're constantly pulled away from moments of reflection and spiritual connection by the endless distractions of our devices.
Our app combines the practical functionality of app blocking with the spiritual practice of prayer, creating a unique tool that helps you cultivate both digital mindfulness and deeper faith.
By requiring a moment of prayer to unlock your distracting apps, PausePray transforms what would otherwise be mindless scrolling into an opportunity for spiritual growth and intentional technology use.
Our Story
The Inspiration
Inspired by the "Touch Grass" concept, our founders recognized the need for a solution that not only helps break digital addiction but also nurtures spiritual growth. In a world of endless notifications and infinite scrolling, we saw an opportunity to create moments of sacred pause.
The Development
We built PausePray with a focus on creating a beautiful, intuitive experience that makes prayer and mindfulness accessible in the midst of busy digital lives. Our team combined expertise in app development with insights from spiritual practices to craft a tool that serves both technological and spiritual needs.
Our Vision
Today, PausePray is helping thousands of users transform their relationship with technology through the power of prayer and mindful technology use. We envision a world where digital tools enhance rather than detract from our spiritual lives, and where moments of prayer become natural pauses in our technology-driven routines.
Our Values
Mindful Technology
We believe technology should serve our highest purposes and values, not distract us from them. PausePray promotes intentional, mindful use of digital tools.
Spiritual Growth
We're committed to supporting people's spiritual journeys by making prayer and reflection more accessible and integrated with daily life in the digital age.
Balance & Wellbeing
We believe in the power of balance – between digital and physical, between productivity and rest, between connection and solitude – as essential for holistic wellbeing.
