VALAR MORGHULIS - ALL MEN MUST DIE Not to fear death, but to live fully. Your life is roughly 4,000 weeks. How many do you have left? Valar Morghulis transforms this ancient Stoic wisdom into a beautiful, minimal life calendar that lives on your iPhone. "It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live." - Marcus Aurelius ------------------- SEE YOUR LIFE'S BREVITY Each week of your life becomes a single dot on a grid. Gray dots represent weeks you've lived. Future weeks await. Your current week glows cyan - a reminder that this moment will never come again. The visualization is stark, honest, and motivating. When you see your entire life laid out, priorities become clear. ------------------- PERSONALIZED LIFE EXPECTANCY Using actuarial data from 159 countries and a comprehensive health questionnaire, we estimate your life expectancy based on: - Smoking habits - Exercise frequency - BMI and body composition - Alcohol consumption - Sleep quality - Stress levels - Family longevity - Diet quality - Social connections - And more You can also set a custom end date for specific goals or milestones. ------------------- WIDGET-FIRST DESIGN Add your life calendar to your iPhone home screen, lock screen, or StandBy mode. A glanceable memento mori - your mortality always in view, inspiring intentional living. Supported widgets: - Home screen (Small, Medium, Large) - Lock screen (Inline, Circular, Rectangular) - StandBy mode (Extra Large) ------------------- MARK WHAT TRULY MATTERS Color-code the weeks that defined you: - Career milestones - Relationships begun or ended - Places you've lived - Major life transitions - Future goals and deadlines See patterns emerge. Notice where your time goes. Ask yourself: what deserves these precious weeks? ------------------- YOUR DATA, YOUR DEVICE Complete privacy. Everything stays on your iPhone: - No account required - No cloud syncing - No tracking or analytics - No data collection whatsoever Your mortality is yours alone. ------------------- INSPIRED BY PHILOSOPHY Drawing from Stoicism and Buddhism, Valar Morghulis encourages present-moment awareness through mortality contemplation. The app embraces memento mori - not as pessimism, but as the ultimate tool for intentional living. When you remember that death is certain and time is limited, trivial concerns fade away. What remains is what truly matters. ------------------- FEATURES - Life visualization: 4,000 weeks in dots - Personalized life expectancy calculation - 11-factor health questionnaire - Custom end dates for goals - Life event tracking with color coding - Seven widget types across all iOS surfaces - Minimalist black/white/gray aesthetic - Completely offline and private - No subscriptions or in-app purchases ------------------- WHO IS THIS FOR? - People seeking meaning and intentionality - Fans of Stoic philosophy and memento mori - Anyone wanting to break free from autopilot living - Goal-setters who need perspective on time - Minimalists who value thoughtful design ------------------- "You could leave life right now. Let that determine what you do and say and think." - Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 2.11 Download Valar Morghulis. See your weeks. Make them count.
