NEVER MISS AN EXHIBITION AGAIN We're the only people bringing you ALL London exhibitions - not just ones about Art (though we have plenty of them too!). Each one is categorised, making it easier to find more of what you love. Here are just some of the different types of exhibitions you can expect to find: Family friendly Photography Black Culture Women artists Architecture Local History Fashion Sports + Loads more Exhibits was started by two sisters who were lucky enough to grow up going to exhibitions on the weekends with their parents. As adults, they found themselves missing awesome exhibitions all the time...eventually enough was enough! One half of the dynamic duo, Δ°layda, learnt to code and built the Exhibits app herself! Trust us when we say we've built an app we'd *actually* like to use. With over 450 galleries and museums in London, we believe there's something for everyone to enjoy. It's just a matter of finding it in time.
MARCUS

MARCUS is a daily Stoic practice app built on a simple premise: philosophy is something you do, not something you read. Most philosophy apps give you a quote and call it a day. MARCUS gives you a complete daily practice rooted in 2,000 years of Stoic tradition β morning intentions, structured lessons, guided exercises, and evening reflections that turn ancient wisdom into a living habit. FOUR PILLARS OF DAILY PRACTICE Today β Your Daily Anchor Each morning begins with a carefully chosen thought from Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, or Seneca. Not a decorative quote β a lens for examining your day. Set your morning intention in under two minutes and return each evening for a virtue check-in. Learn β Depth, Not Soundbites 61 structured lessons covering seven pillars of Stoic philosophy: Control, Acceptance, Virtue, Mortality, Calmness, Obstacles, and Time. Each lesson pairs primary source excerpts with modern commentary and a practical exercise. Includes a dedicated "Stoicism at Work" journey applying Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius, and Seneca to difficult colleagues, hard emails, and the pressure to let a job become your whole identity. Reflect β Your Private Journal Guided journaling with rotating Stoic prompts. Every entry is stored locally on your device and never leaves it. Review your reflections over time and watch your practice deepen. Practice β Active Exercises 23 text-guided Stoic exercises grounded in classical practices: negative visualisation, the view from above, evening self-examination, and more β plus a set of 60-90 second "Quick Resets" for the moment you actually need them, not just morning and evening. DESIGNED FOR PRIVACY Your journal entries, reflections, and practice history never leave your device. No accounts, no cloud sync, no analytics, no tracking. MARCUS is free. No paywall, no trial, no ads.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: MARCUS at fortnightly against Exhibits's every 2 months. Exhibits's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
