Your thumb alreadyknows the wayto Instagram.

Still puts a passage of Scripture in front of the apps you open on autopilot. Read it — or listen to it — and the gate opens on terms you set. No lectures, no leaderboard, no pretending you have more willpower than you do.

iOS and Android beta, autumn. Free tier at launch.

How it works

Three seconds of friction, in the right place

You reach for the app

Pick which apps are gated at setup — Instagram, TikTok, X. Messages and maps stay exactly where they are; this isn't a punishment app.

Still opens instead

Today's passage, in your translation, read or listened to in the app. Nothing to go find. Nothing to decide at 7am.

The gate opens

Mark it read and your apps come back immediately — for the minutes you chose, or for the rest of the day. Done is done.

Two unlock modes

You set the strictness. Not us.

Timed unlock

Read, then 20 minutes

Sit with the text and earn a window. The clock starts when you close the passage and the gate quietly returns when it's up — no negotiating, no "just five more."

Best for the days the scroll is winning

Daily gate

Read once, day's yours

One reading, one unlock, no timer following you around. The gate is a threshold you cross in the morning rather than a leash you feel all day.

Best for the days you just need your tools

Switch modes in settings whenever you like — your streak doesn't care which one you're on.

Reading plans

Follow a plan, or build the one you actually want

Start a structured plan, take the next passage in order, or draw up your own: pick books and chapters, and Still splits them a chapter a day — merge, split and reorder from there. Change plans mid-way; your streak survives.

90-Day New TestamentOne Year ChronologicalPsalms in 30 DaysSequential — no planBuild your own

Day 14 of 90 — plan progress, tracked apart from your streak, so one bad week doesn't erase the other.

Private by default — share a custom plan by link only if you want your small group reading it too.

A streak worth keeping, kept honestly

See the days you showed up and the passages you've covered this month. Miss one and you get a gentler nudge, not a guilt trip — the point was never the number.

Read it in the words you think in

Switch translation any time — mid-plan, mid-streak, mid-verse. Nothing resets. More local-language translations arrive with the beta.

Trust

Works with no signal

Passages and unlock state live on the device. A dead connection can't lock you out of your phone — and it can't be used as a loophole either.

We don't want your feed

Still needs to know which apps you gated and whether you read today. Not what you posted, not who you follow. No ad network, no data sale, ever.

Permissions, explained first

Screen Time on iOS, usage access on Android. You see what each one does, in plain words, before you're asked to grant it.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can't I just delete Still?

You can. It's a gate, not a prison. The bet is that a three-second interruption beats a decision you were never going to make at 7am.

Does it read the passage aloud?

Yes — listen while you make coffee and mark it complete when it ends. Same gate, same credit.

What does it cost?

The gate, one translation and the reading experience are free. Pricing for the extras lands before launch, and waitlist members hear it first.

Can our church or small group use it together?

That's what group plans and shareable custom plans are for. Tell us your group size when you sign up and we'll bring you into the beta as a cohort.

Is it social?

Only if you ask for it. No feed, no follower count, no default visibility. Groups are opt-in and private.

When's the beta?

iOS first, Android close behind. Waitlist order is roughly invite order.

Read first. Scroll second. Starting this autumn.

Join the waitlist for a beta invite. Church, small group or campus ministry? Say so in your email and we'll bring the whole group in together.
