          This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
There's also prayer wheels going back to the 4th century.
So that's what those are for? That's like saying "I don't need to go running. Look, I can just draw a stick figure in this book, flip the pages, and he runs for me!"
It's religion, the rules are made up. So if a flip book is considered good enough then it's good enough.
The only good that prayer can do is as a mindfulness exercise, and there aren't any shortcuts for those.
