Prayer Lists

I see that Prayer Lists are not mentioned in the Beta Release notes as an LDLS3 feature that is planned to not be supported. Neither do I see it implemented. 

Please don't ditch this feature. With syncing across computers (and iPhone syncing), prayer lists would be an extremely powerful part of our lives. Imagine you tell somebody you'll pray for them, pull out your iPhone, iPod touch, or hopefully Blackberry and put legs to that promise. 

Then integrating prayer lists in this dynamic way would only encourage users to make Logos a part of their daily devotional time. This would be a good thing for existing users, and it would also meet a need for the average user who doesn't think that they would benefit from all the powerful search features of Logos. Those guys just want a Bible, some highlighters, a place to take notes, and a commentary or two maybe. They get all that with a Bible and a piece of paper...a robust, syncing prayer list feature would only serve to help them see the benefit of integrating a digital library in with their devotions (on their phone or computer). 

Prayer Lists (along with reading plans and devotional books) have historically been one of the major selling points to the dozens of people that I have talked into making an investment in Logos. 

All that to say...Please give us a prayer list feature...

    I NEVER used the prayer list before due to is limitations.  But I agree that given the future of Logos on the "Cloud", it would be a much more attractive feature.  Maybe even syncing to a simple web page hosted on the Logos site would be a cool feature?

    I too would miss the prayer list. My only thought when it comes to the cloud is putting confidential information somewhere that is placed in "the cloud". Rainy days happen and someday something may happen that posts those requests to the wrong places.

    I use the prayer list every day in L3 as part of my devotionals. It keeps me focused and I use several lists.

    Please don't loose this feature.

    Have you looked at the standalone application on the Logos Beta page?

    They stopped making it available in 2007. There is no longer a way to download it.

    Prayer lists that sync to iPhone would be exceedingly valuable.  So much so, that I would pay a limited amount for such an app.
