The slash menu

Type / on a new line and everything you can put on a page is one keystroke away.

Type / at the start of a line, or after a space, and a menu opens.

It won’t fire in the middle of a word, or inside a URL, or in “and/or” — so you can write about https://example.com/page without a menu jumping out at you.

Two columns

Format does something to your text straight away: a heading, a list, a quote, bold, a divider.

Capture opens a small window to fill in: a passage of scripture, a prayer, a photo, one of the contemplative practices.

Filtering

Keep typing after the / and the list narrows. You don’t have to know the exact name — /verse finds Scripture, /practice finds Ritual, /check finds To-do.

Arrow keys to move, Return to choose, Esc to close.

On a phone or tablet

There’s no slash key convenient on a touch keyboard, so the same things sit in a row of buttons directly above it — scripture, prayer, sense, ritual, image, emoji, and an Aa button that swaps the row for formatting.

That bar is also where voice dictation and page scanning live.


There are 17 commands in total. The complete list, with what each one does and what it also matches, is on the slash menu reference — generated from the app, so it’s never out of date.
