# Prayer Board: Organize your prayer requests in Selah

> Keep your prayers organized on a visual kanban board with four columns. Move requests between Active, Waiting, Answered, and Ongoing as God works.

The Prayer Board is a kanban-style view for your prayer life. Each prayer lives as a card you can drag between four columns — tracking a request from the moment it lands on your heart all the way through to how God answered it. Everything is personal and private to your account.

## The four columns

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Active" icon="circle-dot">
    Prayers you're actively bringing before God right now. New prayers always start here.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Waiting" icon="clock">
    Requests you've prayed through and are now holding in patient trust. God's timing, not yours.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Answered" icon="circle-check">
    Prayers God has answered. Moving a request here is an act of praise and remembrance.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Ongoing" icon="arrows-rotate">
    Prayers that are continuous — for a person, a community, a calling — where there's no single moment of resolution.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Adding a prayer

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Prayer Board">
    Navigate to **Prayer** in the sidebar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the add form">
    Click **+ Add Prayer** in the top-right corner, or press **N** on your keyboard to open the input instantly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Write your prayer">
    Type what you'd like to pray for (up to 500 characters). Press **Enter** or click **Add** to save. The prayer lands in your **Active** column.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Pressing **N** opens the add form from anywhere on the Prayer Board page — even if your hands are already on the keyboard.
</Tip>

## Moving prayers between columns

On desktop, drag a prayer card and drop it onto any column to move it. The column highlights as you hover over it so you can see where it will land.

You can also hover a card to reveal quick-move buttons. Click any column name to move the prayer there without dragging.

## Editing a prayer title

Click directly on the title text of any prayer card to edit it inline. Press **Enter** to save, or **Escape** to cancel and revert to the original title.

## Saving a prayer from the Companion

If you share something you're praying about in the [Companion](/features/companion), it can save the prayer directly to your board. You don't need to navigate away from your conversation.

<Note>
  When the Companion saves a prayer for you, it creates a meaningful title from what you said and places the prayer in **Active**. You can edit the title or move it at any time.
</Note>

You can also ask the Companion to update a prayer's status — for example, tell it "that prayer was answered" and it will move the card to **Answered** for you.

## On mobile

On smaller screens the board shows one column at a time. Use the tab row at the top — **Active**, **Waiting**, **Answered**, **Ongoing** — to switch between columns. Each tab shows a count of prayers in that column.

<Tip>
  To add a prayer on mobile, tap **+ Add Prayer** at the top of the page. The **N** keyboard shortcut works on any hardware keyboard connected to your device.
