Everything Cairn does

A quiet toolkit for a life of prayer

Each one made to feel calm, private, and yours — from your very first stone to a lifetime remembered. No streaks, no guilt, no noise.

Experience first New · Free

Start in a minute — no account needed

Cairn starts by listening. A few quiet questions, then your first prayer — and a verse chosen to meet it. You only create an account once you've already felt the point of the app.

Onboarding — ‘What would you like to bring to God today?’ with a typed prayer and a matched verse, 1 Peter 5:7, before any sign-up.
01 · Capture

Capture a prayer

Open the app, speak or type, and set a stone on your path. Schedule a gentle revisit so it comes back when it matters.

New Moment — a prayer/gratitude toggle, a text field, options to schedule a revisit and tag people, and ‘Set this stone.’
Guided Prayer — Step 1 of 4, Adoration, with a progress bar and spoken audio.
02 · Pray

Pray with a pattern

The ACTS prayer — Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication — guides you through five unhurried minutes.

03 · Declare

Declare truth over today

A daily declaration, rooted in Scripture, that you can read or hear spoken aloud.

Declare — a single stone with the day’s declaration, a verse from Psalm 94:19, and ‘Hear it spoken.’
Ask Scripture — ‘Tell me what’s on your heart,’ with a crisis-care notice pointing to real human help.
04 · Ask

Ask, and sit with Scripture

Bring what's on your heart; Cairn meets you in the Word. And in a crisis, it points you to real human help — never just a verse.

05 · Remember

Revisit — watch stones turn to gold

When God answers, mark it. Open stones become gold: a visible record of answered prayer.

Revisit — ‘How did God move?’ with He answered / Still waiting / I’ve released it, and a note field.
Your Path — the timeline of stones: open, gratitude, and answered, under ‘Remember what God has done.’
06 · The timeline

Your Path

Every prayer and gratitude becomes a stone on a path you can scroll back through. Remember what God has done.

Faithful in the waiting New · Free

For the whole prayer — not just the answer

Cairn is for the waiting, too. While a stone is still open, you're not just waiting — you're being formed, and Cairn makes that visible. No streaks. No guilt.

Home — ‘What you’re carrying today’: three carried prayers with posture chips (Lamenting, Held, Praying) and a faithfulness line under each, like ‘Carried 112 days · 2 reflections · 2 parts kept.’
Today's Tending

A quiet daily rhythm — even before the answer

Each day, Cairn brings you what you're carrying and meets it with Scripture. Sixty seconds. No streak to keep. When you're done: it's held.

Postures & matched Scripture

Scripture that meets this prayer

Tell Cairn how you're holding it — lamenting, held, watching, acting — and it answers with a verse chosen for this prayer's kind, posture, and age. Fresh grief is met differently than a long, settled wait — never a verse of the day.

A verse that met this moment — Psalm 130:1-2, ‘Out of the depths I cry to You, O LORD; hear my voice,’ chosen for a lament.
A carried prayer — ‘Carried 112 days · 2 reflections · 2 parts kept · 2 crumbs,’ with a gold ‘100 days carried’ milestone card and a thread of reflections.
Faithfulness, made visible

Your faithfulness, made visible

Carried 34 days. 5 reflections. 3 parts kept. Cairn counts the carrying, never the outcome — and it can't be broken. Cross a long threshold and a quiet gold milestone honors it once: a hundred days you've held this.

On any prayer you can name My Part — something to do, to discern, or to surrender. It's your yes to God, not a way to earn the answer.

Lament

Bring the hard thing

Capture a lament, name the situation, and say it plainly — He can take it. Cairn holds five kinds now: prayer, lament, gratitude, a decision, for someone. Mark one heavy and it goes gentle — no nudges, just presence, and a soft card of care.

New Moment — five kinds to choose from (Prayer, Lament, Gratitude, A decision, For someone) and a ‘this one’s heavy’ toggle.

A finite watch

Day 3 of 9

Nine days set apart — or forty. Miss one and it simply waits for you.

Vigils

Keep a vigil

Set apart a finite watch — nine days, or forty — for one hard prayer, and show up each day. It's never a streak: miss a day and the vigil simply waits for you.

Keep vigil with me New · Free

Ask one person to keep watch with you

Invite a single witness. They can send still with you, I prayed for you today, or a verse — never advice. You won't carry it alone. Different from Pray with me's open count — this is one trusted witness.

A carried prayer with a ‘Keep a vigil’ card (9 or 40 days) and a companion card — ‘Sarah is keeping vigil with you; their encouragements arrive in your inbox’ — beside a lament-matched verse.
Remembrance New · Cairn+

Your prayers, remembered

Cairn keeps watch so you don't have to. It brings the right prayer back at the right moment.

  • On this day — a year ago, you prayed this. Here's where it stands now.
  • Your testimony — a narrated look back at how God has moved, in your own words.
  • Echoes — Cairn surfaces the prayers this one rhymes with. The threads were always there; now you can see them.
Your testimony — a narrated retrospective of how God has moved, with sections like ‘Hearts softened’ and ‘Unexpected provision.’
07 · Reflect

Weekly Reflection

A guided audio reflection of where God showed up this week.

Weekly Reflection — ‘This week,’ a guided audio reflection titled ‘Where God showed up,’ with stats and this week’s stones.
Faith Wrapped 2026 — ‘Your year with God,’ leading with ‘365 days you carried something this year,’ then prayers tended, reflections, parts kept, and the few answered.
08 · Your year

Faith Wrapped

Your year with God — what you carried, and who you became carrying it. Days carried, prayers tended, reflections written, parts kept, small graces seen — and, quietly, the few He answered.
