Heartpoints is a Christian app founded by Yed Anikpo to help users cultivate personal holiness. The app allows users to track their spiritual walks by "checking in" to positive or negative categories like worshiping God or dealing with anger. Users select a specific place, view a relevant Bible verse, and add a comment. Users can view their history, identify patterns, and generate a to-do list to pray over positive and negative check-ins. The goal is to provide tools to help users watch and pray as inspired by scripture and Puritan writings.

● Inspired by the words of our Lord in Mark 14:38 "Watch
and pray that you enter not into temptation" (ESV)
● To provide believers with tools to cultivate personal
holiness for our good and His glory.
● Additionally inspired by the Puritans, specifically John
Owen's The Mortification of Sin in believers and
Jonathan Edwards's resolutions.
