All Versions of Episcopal Prayer List

2.0.1

October 15, 2020

Version 2.0.1 A quick update to ensure the proper text color in the widget for Dark Mode. Version 2.0 New in version 2.0 The Prayers in the list are now in separate views, rather than one long list. I hope this helps encourage the specificity of the petition or thanksgiving. The Settings page has two new buttons added: Set BKGND Color and Set BKGND Pict. Set BKGND Color allows the user to choose a background color for all screens. Set BKGND Pict allows the user to choose an image from their Photo’s library and set it as a background image to the prayer list. I am especially thrilled to announce a new iOS 14 widget that will randomly select one of the prayers in the list once an hour and display it in the widget as the “Prayer of the hour.”

1.5.1

July 31, 2020

Oops, I discovered I needed to create a new container for the Cloudkit database records. This small update should fix that! Again, this update will reset your prayer list.

1.5

July 29, 2020

Please note that this update includes a significant upgrade to the database, and the update will reset your list of prayers as well as any saved notification times. You may want to expo your current list before you update it. Version 1.5 now utilizes Apple’’s very stable database platform, Core Data! I am also thrilled to report that Episcopal Prayer List will now automatically sync your Prayer List to all of your iOS devices that utilize the same iCloud credentials in less than a minute! I have updated some of the user interface items and re-wrote many of the code sections for better performance.

1.3.3

March 20, 2020

Since we have some time on our hands with a shelter in place, I think I finally fixed my delete bug for real this time! Made a slight User Interface fix for iPad OS Update to the syncing engine.

1.3.2

March 8, 2020

Chasing an iCloud syncing bug that I think I got squished this time. Update to the local database.

1.3.1

January 14, 2020

Finally fixed the delete function. The record now deletes as expected. Likewise, when you swipe right to edit a prayer, the old prayer is deleted as expected. No longer do you need to swipe the app away to clear a deleted record from the list. Updated the database.

I added iCloud sync to this version of the app, so your prayer list will be automatically updated on all of your iPhones or iPads that have Episcopal Prayer List installed. Please be aware that your saved prayers will be included in your iCloud space allotment, although the amount of usage is quite small. If you would prefer to not have iCloud sync your prayers to other devices, you can disable iCloud sync for the installed app on a specific device with the following instructions.  1. Tap the Settings app to open it. 2. Tap your name at the top of the Settings screen. 3. Tap on the iCloud menu, which is the first item of the second section on the screen. 4. Scroll down to the list of the installed apps utilizing iCloud and find the Episcopal Prayer List app and tap the Green switch to turn off iCloud only for this app. Episcopal Prayer List will operate as it did before the update. To turn iCloud sync back on, reverse the above process. Update to the database. Small user interface adjustments. I am still working on adding the daily lectionary readings to the app. There is a LOT of typing and still some significant coding logic to iron out! :) More soon…

1.2.2

November 14, 2019

I think have FINALLY got the bugs out of the selection of prayers based on the time of day. This one eluded me for a while! Small cosmetic update to the user interface. I am working on the next version of this app which will include the Daily Office (prayer) readings. Because of the calendar of readings (lectionary) has so many floating dates, this update is a bit of a mind-bender to program! I believe I have all the code finished, now there is left a LOT of typing to do to get the text of the readings in place! In addition, I am waiting to hear from the Council of Churches as they hold the copyright of the NSRV and I would prefer to us the form used in most Episcopal Churches rather than one of the public domain versions of the Bible. Stay tuned...

1.2.1

November 11, 2019

Fixed a late bug the snuck in.

Price History of Episcopal Prayer List

Description of Episcopal Prayer List

This simple app is designed to provide users with a place to jot down their prayers. The app also allows users to set up to four separate times in the day to remember their prayers. This setting utilizes the iOS notifications system and is set to repeat the notifications daily.  I chose to create the app with four prayer times as the traditional monastic hours of prayer are: Morning Prayer at 7 AM, Noon Day Prayers at noon, Evening Prayers at 5 PM, and Night Prayers, also known as Compline, is at 9 PM  Instructions for use   • Prayer List  The opening screen is where prayers are listed. A new prayer can be added by tapping the traditional new note icon in the right-hand corner.  Swipe left to delete a prayer from the list and swipe right to edit.  The trash can on the left to delete all prayers at once. The user is warned before the delete action is executed to cancel if the tap was by accident.  • Settings Tap into a field will bring up a picker to select a time. Tap a trash can to delete the time to its left. Schedule the selected 1 - 4 times with the button directly below the input fields.  The two buttons at the bottom of the screen delete all the scheduled notifications, and the bottom button shows which reminders are scheduled: morning, noon, evening, and/or night.  • Daily Devotions  Finally, the middle icon from the Prayer List screen takes the user to Daily Devotions. These simple one-page devotions are from the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer (1979), which are designed to be prayed by individuals in their daily routine.  I hope you find this app supports your prayer journey.  Blessings, (The Rev.) Mark Spaulding  Senior Priest Holy Cross Episcopal Church, Castro Valley CA https://holycrosscv.org  https://vbsonline.org  https://episcopaliansbuilding.org
