What is Inner Room?

Inner Room is a prayer list app from 24-7 Prayer for people who want to work a rhythm of prayer into their daily lives, turn their phone into a prayer room, and talk to God on the go.

Jesus said, “but you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your father…” Matthew 6:6 (NASB)

Turn your phone into an ‘Inner Room’ and pray anytime, anywhere.

Download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, pray, and give us your feedback. Help us create the best tool we can to help Christians talk to God.

What is 24-7 Prayer?

24-7 Prayer started in 1999, when a simple, student-led prayer vigil suddenly went viral. Today, 24-7 Prayer is an international, interdenominational movement of prayer, mission and justice; a non-stop prayer meeting that has continued for every minute of this century so far, in over half the countries on Earth.

How do I add something to pray for?

Once you have installed and opened your app, you will be directed to a page that allows you to select three topics you would like to pray for. (You can choose more later.) Once you have your prayer board, you can add prayers to it by clicking on the “add prayer” button, or by adding a prayer from the app homepage.

Watch our “adding a prayer” help video for more assistance.

How do I edit something I’m praying for?

Go to your prayer board by clicking on the second icon at the bottom of the app, and click on the prayer item you wish to edit. Click “edit” at the top right of the screen.

Check out our “how to edit a prayer” guide for more assistance.

How do I remove something from my Prayer Board?

Go to your prayer board by clicking on the second icon at the bottom of the app, and click on the prayer item you wish to remove.

Below, you’ll see two buttons that will enable you to move your prayer to the “thanks” board or the “archive” board depending on whether your prayer has been answered or if you are choosing to stop praying for another reason.

If you would like to delete your prayer completely, go to the archive board located within your prayer board, and swipe left on the prayer you’d like to delete. You can then see the options including “delete”

Watch our “remove a prayer” help video for more assistance.

What is a Prayer Playlist?

You can group your prayer items into bespoke lists, called “prayer playlists”. They can be selected when you hit the Pray Now button on the homepage or in the centre of the bottom menu bar.

You can then choose to be guided through praying for your prayer playlist for a chosen amount of time.

How do I create a prayer playlist?

Click on the final icon at the bottom of your app (the three dots) which will take you to the “more” page with a list of options.

Click “Manage Playlists”, followed by “Add New Playlist”. Create a playlist name and add your chosen prayer items to that list. You will then be able to select that prayer playlist when tapping “Pray Now”, and selecting how long you want to pray for. Your time will automatically split equally between the items on your list.

Watch our “Create a playlist” help video for more assistance.

How do I edit a prayer playlist?

Once you’ve created a prayer playlist you can edit by clicking on the final icon at the bottom of your app (the three dots), which will take you to the “More” page. Then, click on “Manage Playlists”. Below the option to add a new playlist, you will see your existing lists with the option to edit. Click and then make any changes you want to before hitting “Save”.

How do I turn on audio prompts?

Click on the final icon at the bottom of your app (the three dots) which will take you to the “more” page with a list of options. Click “Preferences”. This will give you the option to select to “Use audio prompts”, as well as to turn them off again, should you choose to.

After doing this, when you click to “Pray Now”, ensure that you select “Audio On” to be able to listen to the audio prompts.

How can I change or turn off background music when audio prompts are on?

Click on the final icon at the bottom of your app (the three dots) which will take you to the “more” page with a list of options.

Click “Preferences” and scroll down to “Music preference”. There are three options of musical style, and an option to select “no music” at the bottom. Select this, and you’re good to go.

If I delete the Inner Room app on my phone, will it delete the prayers I’ve added?

Yes, all data is stored on your phone. If you delete the Inner Room app you will lose all your prayer information.

Why does the app require me to grant permissions?

When you download Inner Room, you may be prompted to give the app permission to access certain data and system features. Most apps that involve a degree of user interaction require user permissions. Inner Room only requires the bare minimum permissions to function, and each permission is directly related to a feature or function of the app. It’s entirely your choice whether or not to grant these permissions but the app may not function fully or at all if the permissions are not granted. For more information on how we use and store your information, read our privacy policy.
