Enhances the physical magazine in so many ways!
Wonderful content - I love the magazine and the app complements it - bringing teachings alive!
A Variety of Perspectives
I am grateful to have access to the Daily Dharma. Each day I scan the intriguing titles of the articles and gravitate to the one offering illumination to the moment I find myself in. It is a Blessing to have such freedom within the Teachings.
Opening to awareness
I am learning so much about improving my awareness of how I cause suffering, to myself and others.
Thank you, Tricycle!

Listened to feedback
Used to enjoy Daily Quotes, then they forced an update which erased all saved favorites. Deleted app.
Update:
The app moderators replied directly to this review and explained that they have expanded the availability of non-subscription content. I respect their individualized reply and I will reinstall the app to explore what is available.
Added a star due to their thoughtful reply.

Growing Greed
Used to enjoy Daily Dharma, then they forced an update which erased all saved favorites. Now complete quotes can only be viewed with a subscription. Seems money is more important than sharing a few morsels. Deleted app, I will forge my own path.
Response from developer
Hi there, and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. To your first point, we're happy to let you know that the quote-saving feature has been restored. In the latest version of the app, you can once again view previous Daily Dharma quotes and save your favorites. We also understand your frustration around some content being behind a paywall. As a nonprofit, we rely on the generosity of our readers to sustain our work. That said, the recent update has actually allowed us to expand the amount of free content available on the app, including rotating articles and Dharma Talks, all of our podcasts, Buddhism for Beginners resources, and more. We hope you’ll explore and find value in these offerings.
Excellent app with a wide variety of offerings
I love this app! In addition to the daily dharma quotes, which you can save to favorites and scroll through past quotes, the app contains a variety of accessible Buddhist teachings in various formats including audio, video, articles, and more. Great for beginners or longtime practitioners.
Best start of any day!!
Short or long, the teachings of so many teachers is a blessing.
Limited selection
The app shows a limited selection of curated material taken from the magazine, which can only be read in the browser. It make sense to have the full magazine and past issues available in an app.
Interview with Jane Hirschfeld
Once again, a magnificent period of sitting at the foot of a master, a poet and interpreter of life. In words to shake my cobwebs and present a new way of being through her writing. James teased Jane to insights new to my ears.
My favorite way to start the morning!
It’s hard to put into words the joy and comfort I feel every morning I wake up to read the articles in Tricycle. It’s a gift each day. The teachings have deepened my mindfulness practice, and support my journey of loving-kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity.
I’m deeply grateful for the work and support of this community.

A wonderful resource
I have really come to enjoy this app. It is choked full of helpful information that has been invaluable in my practice.
Subscription joinup
So much more enjoyable now that our subscriptions link from website to app more easily. One less thing to be mindful with. Keep up the extraordinary work.

Update disappointment
The loss of the daily dharma favorites as well as the ability to scroll back for previous daily dharma quotes is very disappointing. I’m likely to not use the app much anymore.
Terrible update
Recent update appears to have combined Daily Dharma and Triangle, in an attempt to get paid subscriptions to triangle. In doing so it has eliminated a ton of functionality from the Daily Dharma app itself, including the ability to look at past days, see popular daily Dharmas, etc. Depressing to see a cash grab like this that makes things actively worse from a Buddhist org. I'd pay something reasonable for the old app, which should've been the move.

Lost wisdom
I’m very disappointed that in updating the app I lost years of bookmarked Daily Dharmas. It was so lovely to be able to reflect back on the quotes that were most meaningful. This is a lesson in impermanence, but I still wish all the prior wisdom was still available.
Bad update
This update really convoluted things, as well as not being able to conveniently scroll through past days. I doubt I will use this any longer.
App needs bug fixes
While I enjoy the app’s quotes, the app itself needs bug fixes. 1) FAVORITE QUOTES: The app stops saving favorite quotes after you have saved about 20 of them. 2) DAILY REMINDER: If you ever turn on the daily reminder feature, it stays on, even if you turn it off in the app settings menu. Also, when the reminder activates, the system notification banner shows old quotes —sometimes the same quote every day— instead of the current day’s quote. 3) NO IMPORT/EXPORT: There’s no import/export feature for your favorite quotes. So if you ever have to delete the app and reinstall, you’ve lost all your favorites.
