Pease fix audio issues
Lots of interesting things here to keep you occupied as an alternative to you know what. Or as I do, to take a small break to relax a few and listen to something that usually gives new perspectives on life.
But those breaks are best taken with eyes closed, or not, and just sound but the audio with its disturbing volume shifts from low to very high all of a sudden and back are in no way relaxing lol.
Aware it’s a new feature, but please fix. ✌️

Emotional Education at its Best
I’ve always been a huge admirer of the kind of knowledge The School of Life offers across different aspects of life. I believe The School of Life has been a great influence on me during my 20s and has shaped who I am today, as a person, partner, friend, and simply as a human being.
The app could use a few refinements here and there for a better UI/UX experience, but that doesn’t feel like an excuse to miss out on the knowledge it has to offer. Thank you so much, always grateful :)

Life lessons in one’s pocket
I found the app easy to use and navigate. I love the bite size learning and meaningful daily quotes. My friends and I enjoyed the conversation cards. We have replaced ‘How are you?’ with ‘How have you been suffering lately (with humour)? x
Self awareness and grit!
Love this App it supports my self awareness and regulation.
Amazing resource
I would recommend to everyone, no matter who you are there’s resources helpful to anyone.
Daily dose
I’m a subscriber. I live the ability to launch my day with a snippet of insight into the myriad human experience. About myself or others, and our situations. I often share a relevant nugget with a loved one for their benefit… or my own. Short articles and videos create an illuminating discussion with my partner over our morning coffee. Much better than reading ‘the news’ first thing in the morning!

On the button
The School of Life provides a wealth of useful information on understanding ourselves and our relationships using words, video and games in a charming and original style
Invaluable intelligent insights you can work with
The School of Life are a rare oasis of intelligence in a wellbeing ocean of blandness.
The content is uniquely thought provoking in that it uses art, architecture and other sources with an injection of dry wit, to cut through to the heart of an issue, in such a well that one finds oneself inevitably recognising the matter in yourself, thereby forcing you to take ownership and resist pity.

The best kind of scrolling
Want to be inspired in the morning rather than reading endless doom scrolling news? This is the app for you if you want inspiration, education, art, philosophy and psychology( it’s so good. I’ve gifted it to friends. It’s my go to every day and I highly recommend it.
A different perspective
I love this app! I often open it when I’m feeling beat down from endless scrolling or mundane daily life. It always gives me something to think about, a different perspective on things, and usually brings more kindness and calm into my life.

The best !!!!
Everything about TSof Life is the best. I use just about all of their articles and videos to send to friends and even almost strangers. The info is clear, concise and inspiring. I was turned onto the books years ago, before so much online stuff. I was hooked as soon as I read them. Alain Boton is fabulous and I would love to do a retreat one day! Thank you for all your great work!

Response from developer
Thank you so much for your lovely message—it means the world to us. We’re so glad the content has been meaningful to you over the years, and it’s wonderful to hear you’re sharing it with others too. We’ll pass your kind words along to the team (and Alain!). We’d love to welcome you on a retreat one day!
Incredible
I love using this app! There are plenty of valuable information on psychology and philosophy that I have been able to use in my day to day life!
A guide when you need one
I love navigating around the app. It feels thoughtfully laid out with a new idea or topic or thought around every corner. The content, as always, is top notch.
Quality of Life
The content is incredibly insightful, the user Interface is very pretty and easy to navigate, however when listening to the articles will often result in the app crashing, and there is no option to drag the audio along, so you must restart entirely.
Although most of these articles are only 3 or so minutes, I would still appreciate some sort of slider. Thanks :)

Won’t give me a refund or respond to my emails
I never write negative reviews, but I’m genuinely disappointed by how the school of life has dealt with my request for a refund. I have emailed a few times now, and when they’ve asked for more information, I have provided it, but then I’ve heard nothing back. I unsubscribed to the app yet was still charged. I explained this and that the money they had taken was money I could not afford to be charged. I did not at all want to be re subscribed and as such, this has caused me some distress. It’s disappointing to experience this service from an app and company I believed to be interested in supporting people and doing the right thing. It’s about money making, it seems, with no concern for the human impact of just taking someone’s money or discussing a situation relating to people’s money that they have. Even if there’s a tiny point in the initial subscription sign up that states having to go somewhere extremely specific to unsubscribe on the app, it is unethical that unsubscribing on the App Store might not transfer that information to the respective app. This is a long post but I felt it necessary to let people know before they sign up. It has made me lose faith in these services.

Impossible to cancel subscription
I have contacted the team within the 7 day trial to cancel the upcoming subscription and no response. There is no way to cancel the subscription through the app and they ask to reach out through contact support message box. I have have been charged and I am still waiting for them to reply and refund me.

Listening rather than just reading as the only option
option to listen instead of only reading, for me it takes time to
focus on just that.
Will have to cancel

Great app, but suddenly stopped working
I can’t access app, something about error “network code500”. Is it going to be fixed? Thank you.
Excellent Resource
The content of this app is great and presented in an insightful manner. In the end, what matters is what you do with the information. Apply what you learn and you will progress.
