Better than ai
I used ai schedules to do the same thing as this app. This is better. Important things still need craft and a package and separation.
Idk how To work it
It kinda hard towprk out
Solid but 1 issue.
The only concern I have is anything quoted by anyone other than Epictetus can’t be saved in the hearted section I can easily screenshot but it only pops up through push notifications and if I was to scroll I wouldn’t see any other philosopher quote. Wouldn’t mind this being fixed other than that I love the daily stuff gets me thinking each morning.
I want to love this app but…
The formatting for the fonts make it so many of the quotes are cut off on my screen. Hard to learn from only part of a quote. If this was fixed I’d give it 5 stars.
Fit
The quotes do not always fit on the screen, otherwise great app for personal reflection
Simple and Elegant
Does exactly what it is supposed to, no ads, asks for nothing. It’s excellent for a quick daily dose of stoicism.
Good but…
Needs a random quote option so you don’t end up scrolling through Epictetus forever to get to Aurelius.
Cutoffs
Most of the quotes are incomplete, as the last few phrases are cut off.
No variety of authors
Some solid quotes but I’ve had this for a few days now and I’ve flicked through the quotes and so far it’s all just from discourses by Epictetus
Easy to read. Daily inspiration.
A seemingly bottomless sea of stoic wisdom. You can have it send you a thought a day. Quotes are phrased in modern English. Attractive backgrounds. No music. Readable font. A little treasure trove of wisdom!
Good, but
Some of the font sizes mean the quotes don’t fit on the page
There’s other stoics besides Epictetus
Maybe I’m doing it wrong but EVERY quote is by Epictetus. There’s more stoics besides him.
Pretty much just Epictetus
Just scrolling through the quotes will only show you Epictetus for some reason. The "daily thoughts" show others such as Marcus Aurelius though. I'm guessing it's just a simple mistake.
Great way to start the day
I enjoy reading these Stoic aphorisms in the morning. It gives me time to breathe and contemplate the meaning of this as they relate to my life. Some of the quotes stay with me all day. Others reveal themselves during the day. Highly recommend if Stoic thought interests you.
Needs more variety
This app is simple and easy to use. However, there needs to be more stoic quotes. Marcus Aurelius, Senica are missing. A widget or iOS 16 Lock Screen widget would be great.
Useful and inspiring
One of the best stoic ideas app
Epictetus only
I was looking for a Stoics app, this is just Epictetus quotes. Where’s Marcus Aurelius? There are a half dozen original Stoics to quote from but this app is nothing but Epictetus.
Nice collection of thoughts
Sometimes you just need a little perspective on life. This little app does just that, with an insightful quote from one of the stoic philosophers. The quotes change each day, giving me something new to think about.
Interesting
I want to really like it
Great app
No ads which is great
Good concept but way oversimplified
App with great potential but lackluster in execution. Decent quotes from Epictetus but I have yet to see those from any of the other well known stoics, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and the others. The presentation is fairly pleasant but the app has proven nearly impossible to navigate. As far as I know, the app is dedicated exclusively to long, unpopular quotes from Epictetus. I’ve seen few quotes relating to the popular, central tenants of stoicism that make it such a compelling school of philosophy. Perhaps the authors are alphabetized? But they should be randomized.
Absolutely Amazing App! But it stopped working, Please fix!
The bit size quotes are profoundly helpful. I try and make it part of my daily routine to read and meditate on several quotes a day. This app has helped me navigate through my day with a calmer and clearer out look than before. That said now the app has stopped working and it’s just a gray screen. I’m glad I took a bunch of screenshots just in case!
Excelente
Good remarks
Perfect
I love the oversimplicity. Just the quotes not too much things and the app is easy to use. 10/10
