Excellent practice
The app just gets better. The current version is a wealth of resources. I especially appreciate the daily practice, which includes a short reading, a meditation, and accountability. It’s helped me integrate Stoic practice into my everyday life.
No automatic system theme in 2026?
There’s no excuse for that. How you gonna charge a subscription for a premium app and there’s no automatic system theme to change from light to dark mode when literally almost every other app on my phone has it. No thanks.
Gratitude
Stoa has been a very useful resource in developing a new approach to spiritual education and living. Since I have left the faith of my parents I was very often confused and frustrated with my spiritual practices. Stoa has been invaluable in helping me see life with a new and joyful spirit.
I use this app daily
I don’t know if I would have had the structure or discipline to learn deeply about stoicism or how to meditate without this app as an excellent tool. Definitely a very much preferred indifferent for my life right now.
Best app on Stoicism
Of all the apps, dealing with stoicism, Stoa is by far the best. It has an interesting combination of written material, audio lectures, and guided meditations. It is based on a thorough understanding of Stoic philosophy and it’s application to the modern world. I’m looking forward to the day when they add a video component to the app and also explore some of the related/adjacent philosophical schools.

AI Narration a Hard No for Me
I have been studying stoicism for over a decade now, and I so wanted to love this app. Alas, the AI narration is so stiff and rapid in places and cuts off in others. It doesn’t sound human - which is the whole point of studying stoicism! Considering this app costs as much as Calm or Headspace they should definitely be using real human narrators. I’ll come back and try again if you ban AI on here. Otherwise, I loved the concept and topics.

Best app resource for timeless Stoicism truths !!
So many great resources in one app. I’ve been a student of the Stoics since translating portions of them in college back in the 80s. This app is remarkable and highly practical.
Stoa helped me achieve my goals consistently
I have now been using stoa for about 3 years and I cannot imagine my life without Stoa.
Thank You Developers & Team!
Not much to say other than this is an excellent app if you want to be able to support your mental health and either casually or seriously dive into Stoicism. It’s designed well/ visually pleasing. The lessons are clear and understandable. &There are so many resources available on teachers, ideas, as well as superb guided meditation. It’s all wonderful.
I don’t know many other stoic apps, but if you want to get started with stoicism, then this is the one. It has done nothing but great things for me.

The best meditation app!
Amazing app
This app is severely underrated, and more people need to discover its benefits. I have been using it intermittently for about four years. As someone with ADHD, I experience phases of frequent use followed by breaks, but whenever I return to it, I notice that it positively influences my character and shifts my perspective, helping me develop better habits and a more open outlook.

Practical and helpful
I am enjoying the app very much. The voice that explains stoicism is pleasant and the explanations are clear. It is helpful for both understanding stoic concepts and how to apply them in daily life.
phenomenal app
a life changing app, without a doubt. Countless hours of meditation, lessons, and even books to choose from. The book interface is solid, allowing you to recall quotes you like from anywhere. Frankly, I love this app. I am almost 200 days into my streak. Phenomenal. I personally enjoy their podcast and tune in frequently both in app and on Spotify. Though, I would say that the app allows the framework of stoicism (told by them) to deliver a more appreciated perspective when digesting their podcast. I can’t imagine listening to their podcast without the app as a prerequisite.
For feedback, I would say that they should keep the streak function to continue without the commit and complete marks being done. I end up having to commit to the goal and complete in the morning (as that is my routine) and it doesn’t bring me back to the app later on. I think, if I were able to listen to the lesson, meditate, and have the streak solidified by that — it would allow me to commit and then complete later on in the day, without worrying about forgetting it. But, I understand the reasoning as the streak should consist with the action being followed through with as well. The other one is that you guys should stop smacking your lips in the podcast or lessons voice recorded by you! I’m only half kidding.
thank you guys for such an excellent app. I appreciate the occasional jiu jitsu references as I also train. It is thoroughly appreciated for everything that you guys have done.

A great app for perspective and growth.
I recently started using this app and it’s been a great tool for helping me better understand and apply Stoicism in my daily life. The lessons are well structured, clear, and genuinely motivating. I really appreciate how the teachings are broken down into manageable sections that encourage reflection and consistency.
It’s rare to find an app that feels this meaningful and well designed. I look forward to continuing my journey with it and learning even more. Highly recommend it to anyone interested in personal growth and Stoic philosophy.

Strong Mind
Practicing stoicism daily is what changed me. I went from an angry person who lost his kids to the calm and relaxed man I am today. I owe it all to having a stoic mindset. People ask me what I did all the time and I direct them to this app. If stoicism is your way of life, this app is a must have. Thank you Stoa.

I love it
It has taught me a lot about history, philosophers I admire, stoicism. I 100% recommend this app.
I found this peace 10 years ago
I went to prison when I was 16-years-old and was released this last year in 2025 after 21 years of incarceration. There is no better path to walk in this life than exactly what these developers put together. I read books and took notes.
This is perfect. You should be viewing life and politics through the lens that offers us not just in knowledge but especially with the meditations.
Thank you for offering this robust program I am so familiar with through my studies.

The best STOICISM APP
It helped reframe my daily life, I’m all the better for it.
I was not expecting this to be the most helpful app I’ve ever used
The title says it all. I initially downloaded this app at the recommendation of my brother after I was struggling with anxiety and starting to spiral with my outlook because of current events. I did have a skeleton of a meditation practice in place but was not consistent. This app has helped me tremendously more than any other meditation or “self care” app. I think it’s because the philosophy it teaches you is actual philosophy, academically speaking, but also with a very practical twist. I love how the lessons are short and you can either read or listen to them. I love how there is a plan with each day and it does not take much to implement. I now use Stoa every single day during my commute and before I sleep. I have never been this levelheaded in my life. Thank you, Stoa, for sharing the beauty of philosophy with the rest of us mortals.
