The 369 method is a popular manifestation routine, and the 369 Method in Law of Attraction Toolbox uses the same three numbers in a different way. This 369 method app guide explains the classic method first, then shows how the 369 Method works in this manifestation app: three intentions, six wishes beyond yourself and nine gratitudes, saved as a journal entry.
What is the classic 369 method?
The widely known 369 method is a writing routine. You choose one desire, write it as a present-tense affirmation, and write that same sentence 3 times in the morning, 6 times in the afternoon and 9 times at night. Many people keep it up for 33 or 45 days. For the full walkthrough, read How to Do the 369 Method (Step-by-Step), and see 369 Method Examples for sample affirmations.
How the app’s 369 Method is different
The app’s 369 Method is its own take on the same numbers. It is a single guided session, not a three-times-a-day schedule, and it asks for different things:
- Classic method: one desire, written as the same affirmation 3, 6 and 9 times across the day, repeated for many days.
- The app’s 369 Method: 3 intentions for today, 6 wishes for someone or something beyond yourself, and 9 things you are grateful for, all in one practice.
Neither is a replacement for the other. They are two ways to work with 3, 6 and 9, and the rest of this page covers the in-app version.
What you can do with the 369 Method
- Work through intentions, wishes and gratitudes one step at a time with a progress indicator
- Start a practice from the Games tab without doing a Daily Check-In first
- Save every finished practice as its own record
- Read your earlier practices in Saved Entries
How to do the 369 method in the app
Open the Games tab and tap the 369 Method tile. The top of the screen shows “Step 1 of 3” with a progress bar.
- Set three intentions for today. Write three intentions for how you want to think, feel or show up today. Each field is labeled “Intention 1”, “Intention 2” and “Intention 3”, with the prompt “I intend to…”. Tap Continue.
- Six wishes beyond yourself. Write six wishes for someone or something other than you, such as people, animals, communities, organizations, nature or even the weather. The fields are labeled “Wish 1” to “Wish 6”, with the prompt “I wish…”. As you write each one, imagine sending warm, positive energy toward whoever or whatever it is for. Tap Continue.
- Write down nine things you are grateful for. Fill in “Gratitude 1” to “Gratitude 9”, each starting from “I am grateful for…”. The app suggests keeping each answer simple and specific, because small moments count. Tap Finish.
Continue and Finish stay unavailable until every field in the current step has text. Use Back to return to an earlier step. When you finish, a “369 Method Complete” celebration appears. If you started the practice from a routine, finishing also marks that routine item done.
Example
Intention: “I intend to stay patient in my meetings.” Wish: “I wish my neighbor a calm, restful week.” Gratitude: “I am grateful for the quiet first coffee this morning.” Write three intentions, six wishes and nine gratitudes in this style and tap Finish.
Tips
- Each practice starts with a blank form and is saved only when you tap Finish.
- Simple, sincere wishes and small things you appreciate count.
- Let the wishes be about other people, animals, nature or your community, and picture warm energy going toward them.
- If you prefer the classic method, you can keep your affirmation in Affirmations and add reminders to it (see the FAQ below).
Where your entries go
Each finished practice appears as its own record under My Journey > Saved Entries > 369 Method. Each row shows the date and time, your first intention and the line “3 intentions, 6 wishes, 9 gratitudes”. Tap one to see your “Three intentions”, “Six wishes beyond yourself” and “Nine things I was grateful for”. You can swipe a row to delete it. Until you finish your first practice, the screen says “No saved 369 Method entries yet”.
On iPhone and iPad

Frequently asked questions
Is the app’s 369 Method the same as the classic 369 method?
No. The classic method repeats one affirmation 3, 6 and 9 times across a day. The app’s 369 Method is a different practice built on the same numbers: three intentions, six wishes beyond yourself and nine gratitudes in one session.
Can I do the classic 369 method in the app?
The app does not have a mode that counts 3, 6 and 9 repetitions of one affirmation. If you want reminders for the classic routine, you can save your affirmation in Affirmations and add a reminder. Choose Auto Generate to set a “Start Time”, “Repeat Every” and “Until”, and the app creates a series of reminders. You still write or say the repetitions yourself.
Is there a 369 method app with a journal?
Yes. Every finished 369 Method practice is stored in My Journey > Saved Entries > 369 Method, so you can look back at earlier days.
Do I need a separate 369 method notes app?
Not for the in-app practice. The writing fields, saving and history are all built in.
