Open Lantern Live

Open Lantern is a phone monitoring tool built for faith-based missions. Missionaries install it voluntarily — nothing is monitored until they read and sign a digital consent agreement themselves. Once enrolled, Open Lantern quietly runs in the background and sends a simple daily report to the mission leader: which apps are installed on the device and how many minutes each was used that day. The report exists to start honest conversations, not to catch anyone. What Open Lantern collects • Names of installed apps • Daily foreground usage time per app (minutes on screen) • Whether the app is active and reporting What Open Lantern never collects • Messages, emails, or calls • Photos or files • GPS location • Browsing history • Screen content or keystrokes • Microphone or camera This is built into how the app works — it is not a setting a leader can turn on. Consent you control You can withdraw your consent at any time directly from the app. Reporting stops immediately, your leader is notified, and you can uninstall like any other app. Your data is deleted when you leave. For mission leaders Open Lantern gives leaders the visibility to reach out early — with care, not confrontation. The companion admin portal shows each device's status, app usage, and any periods of silence, so leaders can follow up before small struggles become big ones. A light left on.
