About

Logos Philosophy

Features
Read full description

Logos Philosophy turns philosophy into a daily practice: brief when you need it, deep when you want to go further. A QUOTE A DAY, WITH ITS WORLD BEHIND IT Every day, a philosophical voice with its context, its source and a question to carry with you. Not an isolated phrase, but a gateway to an idea, an era and a way of seeing the world. THINKERS AND WORKS From the Upanishads to Marx. Each thinker with their life, their quotes and the tradition they came from. Each work chosen one by one and readable section by section, at your own pace. And for those you want to go deeper into, a dossier gathering their central concepts, explained one at a time. THE AGORA Converse with voices built from each philosopher's ideas, or set two of them against each other in a refereed debate. These conversations are generated by AI and grounded in each thinker's work: a way of thinking with them, not a recording of them. FIVE DAILY PUZZLES Lexicon, Connections, Crossword, Dualities and The Way: philosophy turned into play, with a new challenge every day. Leave one half-finished and you will find it exactly as you left it. A PRACTICE, NOT A FEED Five missions a day and a streak that rewards coming back. The day's content turns over at 07:00, your local time, so it waits for you rather than chasing you. MADE TO BE LIVED IN Ambient music and sound effects you can switch off. Widgets to keep the day's quote on your home screen. On iPad, the app shares out the screen instead of stretching: the library opens in two panels and your missions in two columns. Drachmas are the currency of the app: you earn them by reading, playing and watching optional ads, and you spend them on conversations, debates and dossiers. Logos Pro removes the ads and opens everything.
