Find answers to common questions about Secret Place
Is Secret Place free to download?
Yes — Secret Place is free to download. You can try the core experience once to understand how it works. To continue using the app, a subscription is required. We offer a 3-day free trial, and you can cancel at any time before the trial ends with no charge.
Are my prayers private?
Yes — by design. Your prayers are stored locally on your device and do not live on our servers or in the cloud. We believe prayer is sacred and personal — meant for you and the Lord alone. Secret Place is built with this conviction at its core.
Can I use Secret Place offline?
No. An internet connection is required. Secret Place uses AI-powered transcription to convert spoken prayers into text and surface relevant biblical references. This processing is secure, encrypted, and ephemeral — nothing is stored or retained by third parties once the transcription is complete.
What devices does Secret Place support?
Secret Place is currently available on iOS (iPhone and iPad).
Android support is coming soon — you can join the Android waitlist to be notified when it launches.
How does the 50% tithe work?
We commit 50% of all revenue to ministries, evangelism efforts, and initiatives that spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ — including support for those who are sick or in need of medical aid.
This is not marketing — it is stewardship. As we grow, our long-term vision is to increase this commitment beyond 50%, with the ultimate goal of directing up to 90% of revenue toward Kingdom work.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime?
Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time through your App Store account settings. You'll continue to have access until the end of your current billing period.
Spiritual & Theological Clarity
Does Secret Place replace the Bible or personal prayer?
No. Secret Place is a tool, not a replacement. It is designed to lead you back to Scripture, deepen consistency in prayer, and help you stay focused — not to replace reading God's Word or a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Is the AI "speaking for God" or giving prophetic words?
No. Secret Place does not claim divine authority, prophecy, or revelation. AI is used only to organize, transcribe, and surface relevant Scripture — never to speak on God's behalf. The Bible remains the final authority.
What Bible translations are used?
Secret Place uses NLT translation. We are careful about licensing and accuracy and will always be transparent about which translations are in use. We aim to allow users to select their preferred translation soon.
Privacy, Security & Trust
Does anyone listen to my prayers?
No, never. No human listens to, reviews, or moderates your prayers. All processing is automated, encrypted, and ephemeral. Staying between you and God, as it should.
Do you sell or share user data?
Never. We do not sell data, share prayers, or monetize user information. Your prayer life is not a product.
What happens if I delete the app?
If you delete the app, all locally stored prayers and journals on that device are permanently removed.
Product & Usage
How long should I pray each day?
There is no "right" length. Secret Place encourages consistency over duration — even 7 focused minutes a day can be transformative over time.
Can I export my prayer journal?
Yes. You can export your prayer journal to CSV format at any time. This allows you to back up your prayers and import them later if needed — giving you full control over your data.
Is Secret Place suitable for new believers?
Yes. Secret Place is designed for new believers, long-time Christians, and anyone seeking a deeper prayer life. The app is simple, non-intimidating, and Scripture-anchored.
Company & Mission
Is Secret Place a church or denomination?
No. Secret Place is not affiliated with any single church or denomination. We are Christ-centered, Bible-rooted, and focused on unity in the body of Christ.
Who is behind Secret Place?
Secret Place is built by a small, faith-driven team who believe technology should serve spiritual formation — not distract from it.
Why charge for a prayer app?
Running a secure, private, AI-powered app has real costs. Subscription revenue allows us to sustain development, protect user privacy, and fund ministry and evangelism through our tithe commitment — without relying on ads or data monetization.
