This is just the name of the prayer type. It will
appear in the lists on the Main Screen,
and as a choice for prayer type in the Prayer
Edit screen.
The schedule field lets you set the default schedule for new prayers of this
type. If for example, the default schedule for Prayers
is an urgency of 10, and the default schedule for Thanks is an
urgency of 5, then when you create a Prayer, the urgency will be
10, and if you create a Thanks prayer, the urgency will be
5. To change this, press the button to open the Schedule Edit form.
This field lets you set the number of prayers of this type that
you want to review each
day. The app will pick the prayers that are to be
prayed today, as well as the prayers with the top score, until it
gets to the number you want to review. If you set the
number to review to 0, then it will not do reviewing for this
prayer type. If you set this to -1, then you will only
review prayers that are on a schedule (but none that are
urgency-based).
This field lets you set the number of prayers of this type that
you want to pray each
day. The app will pick:
If you have lots and lots of prayers, then the app may pick more
each day to make sure prayers don't end up getting neglected.
If you don't want to pray this type at all, set the number to 0
(for example, you may have a prayer type that is just for finished
prayers). Setting to 0 will ignore prayers that are
prayed on a schedule as well as urgency-based prayers.
If you want to ONLY pray prayers that are on a schedule, then set
the number to pray to -1.
If you tick this box, when this prayer is selected (either
manually or automatically), it will be set as a focus prayer.
When the prayer is selected, then set the default number of times
to pray during the day to this number. Trick: If you set a
negative number, the number of times will be "Base Score / This
Number" - i.e. if this field is set to -5, and the prayer base
score is 17, then the number of times to pray will be 3.
The app can pop up a reminder to pray this prayer type at a
certain time. Set the time in these fields for the
time you want the reminder to be. If you don't want a
reminder, at all, just clear the fields.
You can set how the reminders appear using Settings.
To add a shortcut, press the button to the right of the
list. That will open the Shortcut List which lets
you select an existing shortcut, or add a new one.
If you press on a shortcut in the list, you will see the Shortcut Details form, which
shows everything that they shortcut does.
