Terms of use
Updated on November 12, 2026.
On this page
Pilg is a Christian app for iPhone. The subscription gives you the content and the method, which are the feed, the Bible, the prayers, the meditations and the path. The lock uses Apple's Screen Time, stays free and keeps working without a subscription. You can cancel the subscription in your iPhone Settings and delete your account in the app whenever you want.
1. Who offers Pilg and which rules apply
Pilg is offered by Nicolas Marino, an individual developer in Brazil, who answers at support@pilg.app.
These terms apply to the Pilg app for iPhone. They add to the Apple standard end user license agreement, which also applies to every app downloaded from the App Store.
What we do with your data is in the privacy policy.
2. What the app does
Pilg has a vertical feed with one item per screen, which can be a Bible passage, a traditional prayer, a meditation, a quote or a daily mission. The full Bible is inside the app in eight translations. A pilgrim path moves forward one stretch for each day you complete. The app is in English and Portuguese, and it offers the Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant traditions, plus the option Other for anyone who prefers not to say.
3. The lock
If you want, you pick apps that stay closed at the times you choose, until you pray, read or meditate for a few minutes. The lock uses Apple's Screen Time, and these rules always hold.
- Pilg never creates a Screen Time passcode, so you can always remove the app from your iPhone.
- Phone, Messages, Maps and Camera only close if you mark each one yourself, so you can always call, write, find your way and take a photo.
- There is always an Emergency exit, with no limit on how many times you use it, which opens the app on screen for 15 minutes, so you are never stuck when you need an app.
The lock, the prayer, reading or meditation that opens the apps, the lock settings and the Emergency exit are free forever and do not need a subscription. The lock depends on Apple's Screen Time, so it can fail when iOS fails.
4. Your account
The app creates an anonymous account automatically on first use, with no email and no password. In the Me tab you can choose Sign in with Apple, so you can continue on a new iPhone. You can delete the account at any time in the Me tab, with Delete account.
5. Subscription
There is no free tier for the content. After the free trial, the feed, the Bible, the prayers, the meditations and the path need a subscription.
- There are two plans. The annual plan has a 3 day free trial, and the monthly plan has no trial and is charged on the day you subscribe, so you can choose how to start.
- Prices are shown in your local currency in the app before you buy, so you know the amount before you confirm.
- Apple charges the payment on your App Store account and manages the subscription, so Pilg never sees your card details.
- Both plans renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal, in iPhone Settings, in your Apple ID, under Subscriptions, so you decide when to stop.
- If you change iPhones, tap Restore purchases on the subscription screen or in the Me tab, so your subscription comes back.
- Deleting your account in the app does not cancel the subscription, because Apple manages it, so cancel it in iPhone Settings to stop the charges.
- Refund requests go to Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com, because Apple handles the payment.
6. The content
The Bible translations in Pilg are in the public domain or have an open license, and their credits are in the Me tab. The prayers are traditional prayers, shown with their source.
Pilg is not a church. It does not replace pastoral care, medical care or psychological care, so if you need help, look for a pastor, a priest, a doctor or a psychologist.
7. Use of the app
Do not use the app to try to access another person's account, to copy the content in bulk or to disrupt the service.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of Brazil. This does not remove the mandatory consumer rights of the country where you live, and consumers in the European Union keep all of theirs.
9. Contact
Questions and complaints go to support@pilg.app.
