Phoenix is one minute a day to get back on fire. Every day, at the time you choose, Phoenix sends you a new quote, never the same one twice, from Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, Goethe, Thoreau and other classic minds, together with a small Challenge you can do in under two minutes. Your first reminder is set during onboarding, so the habit starts tomorrow without you having to remember anything. Tick off today's Challenge and your streak grows. Missed a day? A grace day keeps it alive. Your quote of the day also lives in your Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets, so you see it before you even open the app. WHAT'S INSIDE • Today: one big quote, its author and a 2-minute Challenge. Save it, share it or ask for another one. • Daily reminders that work: a different quote every day, with the Challenge right in the notification. • Streak with a grace day. • Journal: one line a day and a calendar that shows the days you acted and the days you just read. • Collection: every quote you saved, in one place. • Rescue: tell Phoenix how you feel (No energy, Overwhelmed, Stuck, Sad) and get a quote picked for that moment, plus guided breathing that is always free. • Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets. • 300+ quotes in 7 themes: General, Motivation, Work, Sports, Mindfulness, Inspirational and Faith. Available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and German. • A calm design that follows the time of day: dawn in the morning, embers in the afternoon, night in the evening. No stock photos. • On compatible iPhones with Apple Intelligence, Phoenix can adapt your Challenge to what you wrote in your journal, privately on your device. FREE AND PRO Free: quote of the day, Challenge, streak, one daily reminder, the General and Motivation themes, one widget style, one Rescue quote a day (breathing is always unlimited) and the last 7 days of your journal. Phoenix Pro: up to 5 reminders, every theme, all widget styles, unlimited Rescue and your full journal history. Phoenix Pro is available as a yearly subscription or as a weekly subscription with a 3-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase, or when the free trial ends.
