Great resource! Tiny modification request

The app is amazing, and I love the daily devotionals, John piper and DesiringGod is a great spiritual resource!

but I do have one source of feedback, the app logo looks similar to a swastika, at first glance it threw me off, I can see after looking at it, it is an S and a J for the apps name, but it may need a slight redesign?

Thank you

Great App

Great app, and helps with ones spiritual journey, but it would be more helpful if you receive the daily notification irrespective of you reading the previous days devotional or not.

Currently, if you miss a day, you don't get a notification until you open up the app
