Terms of Service
Last updated: January 2025
The short version: Use PrayWell respectfully. We'll do our best to help you find words for prayer. The app isn't a substitute for professional help when you need it.
1. Agreement to Terms
By downloading, installing, or using PrayWell ("the App"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, please don't use the App.
PrayWell is operated by Kevin MacDonald ("we", "us", "our"). These terms constitute a legal agreement between you and us.
2. What PrayWell Is
PrayWell is a prayer companion app that helps you find words when prayer feels difficult. The App uses artificial intelligence to generate personalized prayers based on what you share.
PrayWell is:
- A tool to help articulate your thoughts and feelings in prayer
- A companion for moments when words feel hard to find
- A private space for reflection
3. What PrayWell Is Not
PrayWell is not a substitute for:
- Professional mental health care — If you're experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact a mental health professional or crisis service.
- Medical advice — The App does not provide medical diagnoses, treatment recommendations, or health advice.
- Spiritual authority — PrayWell doesn't claim to speak for God or any religious tradition. The prayers are tools for your own reflection, not divine pronouncements.
- Human connection — While we hope PrayWell helps in quiet moments, it's not a replacement for community, counseling, or relationships.
