Block distracting apps until you complete the Catholic prayer you scheduled. CathoLock turns the urge to scroll into a cue to pray—so your phone supports your spiritual life instead of stealing your attention.
CathoLock promotes a healthy relationship between you, your phone, and God by prompting prayer before returning to the distracting apps that pull our attention away from what matters: prayer. With CathoLock, you can create a prayer schedule that will shield your most distracting apps until you pray. It's simple - schedule a time, choose a prayer, set an intention and CathoLock will send you a reminder to pray and block your chosen apps until you complete your prayer. Protect your prayer life and guard your relationship with God.

Walk your path:
1. Choose which apps to block
2. Schedule your prayer and set your intention.
3. Get notified when its time to pray.
4. Pray and unlock your selected apps.

AccessibilityService API:
CathoLock uses the Android AccessibilityService API to detect when a user-selected app is opened during a scheduled prayer window, so it can show a prayer shield and help you stay focused on prayer. CathoLock only uses this permission to identify the foreground app’s package name for blocking you choose. It does not read, store, or share your screen content. You must explicitly enable CathoLock in Android Accessibility settings to use app blocking, and you can disable it at any time.

What you get:
• app blocking to recenter your focus on God.
• a growing selection of traditional prayer
