## What is Heartword?

Say what you feel. A Stoic wrote the reply 2,000 years ago.

Not AI. Not a chatbot. Real passages from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, Cicero, and Plutarch — matched to your exact moment.

Three ways in: speak it, type it, or just tap a feeling.

THE DAILY PRACTICE
Heartword 2.0 turns the library into a quiet daily ritual:
• Today — your morning intention, evening review, and today's meditation, one screen
• The Morning Practice — a passage to sit with, an intention to hold, a premeditatio to disarm the day
• The Evening Review — did your intention hold? What did the day teach?
• Streaks — a quiet gold diamond counts your days of practice. No guilt, ever.
• Home screen widget — today's meditation at a glance
• Morning and evening reminders — on your schedule, in your words

THE LIBRARY
5,000+ real passages. 20 complete works. Five philosophers who actually lived through what you're going through:
• Marcus Aurelius — Meditations
• Seneca — Letters to Lucilius, Moral Letters, On Benefits, Natural Questions, and more
• Epictetus — Discourses, Enchiridion
• Cicero — De Officiis, On Friendship and Old Age, and more
• Plutarch — Moralia, Selected Essays, On the Delay of Divine Justice

HOW IT WORKS

Describe your situation
Speak it out loud or type it. The app finds the passage written for that exact moment, with a plain-English interpretation that lands the ancient words in your modern life.

Browse by feeling
Anger. Grief. Fear. Regret. Overwhelm. Loneliness. Shame. 20 emotional categories — tap one and the library opens to it.

Shuffle
No words needed. Just receive.

Heartword 2.2.1 — faces from history, and a fix.

• Every passage now carries its author's real face — museum busts and centuries-old engravings of Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, Cicero, and Plutarch, on the papyrus, in your notifications, and on shared cards. Nothing generated — the real portraits history left us
• Fixed daily quotes repeating — a much deeper pool, and each day now keeps its own passage
• Small refinements throughout

### 2.2.0 — 2026-07-24

Heartword 2.2 — a brighter morning.

• Daily notifications now lift you up — uplifting passages chosen to start the day well, on a papyrus scroll right in your notifications
• Set your intention or reflect straight from the notification — one tap, no need to open the app
• Save a passage from the notification itself
• A gentle nudge to keep your practice alive when a streak is on the line — never guilt, just a quiet reminder
• Cleaner source titles on every passage and share card
• Refinements throughout

### 2.1.0 — 2026-07-18

Heartword 2.1 — the light rises.

• A living dawn behind every screen — rising light, drifting embers, a breathing horizon
• Ambient music and gentle sound — a quiet temple drone, a papyrus rustle, a soft bell (yours to switch off)
• Reach FOR something, not just away: new hope, courage, calm, purpose, discipline, clarity, presence and freedom — in the dialogue and the Library
• One papyrus at a time, and the composer never leaves you — speak, type, or shuffle from anywhere
• A clear quote counter (50 free, counted honestly)
• Memories reorganized: Practice, Dialogues, Saved — with emotion filters and quiet, readable detail views
