## What is DriftStop?

A new quote on your Home Screen and Lock Screen every day, and a few more at moments you didn't plan.

DriftStop doesn't wait for you to open it. It sends you a line of hard-won wisdom at random times through your day: while you're stuck, bored or about to give up on something. Advice you go looking for is easy to ignore. Advice that arrives unannounced tends to land.

RIGHT UNDER THE CLOCK
Add the DriftStop widget to your Lock Screen and a new quote waits under the clock every day. Home Screen widgets in two sizes show the same quote of the day.

WHAT EVERYONE GETS
• 1,000 quotes from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, Lao Tzu, Musashi, Sun Tzu, Nietzsche and many more, plus proverbs from around the world
• 3 quotes a day, at times you never see coming
• Eight themes: motivation, discipline, resilience, focus, wisdom, peace, reckoning, legacy
• Your own active hours, with quotes spread across them, weekends off if you like
• Settings shows until when your quotes are planned, and tells you if notifications are blocked
• Favorites and a history of every quote you've received
• Turn any quote into a phone wallpaper
• Light and dark mode, hand-drawn look

DRIFTSTOP PRO
• Up to 10 quotes a day
• 3,325+ premium quotes in 18 collections: the Stoics, Ancient Greece, Eastern Wisdom, German Idealism, Romantic Poets, proverbs from six regions and more
• Browse the whole catalog by author
• No ads
• Premium quotes also arrive in your daily notifications

SHARE IT
Share any quote as a clean image card, ready for stories and chats.

NO STREAKS, NO FEED
There is no endless scroll and no "next" button. Home shows only the quotes that have already found you. The next one comes when it's time.

An account is optional. Everything works as a guest; signing in only means your Pro access follows you to a new phone.

Interface: English, Turkish, Spanish, German, French and Italian. Quote text is in English and Turkish.
