You already know something's missing. Not motivation - you've got plenty of that. What's missing is a way to actually train how you think. How to reason clearly, make better decisions, and stop falling for the same mental traps. Tempered is that training. WHAT TEMPERED TEACHES Tempered is built around the disciplines that actually make people think better: - Logic & Critical Thinking: Spot bad arguments, reason through problems, and stop fooling yourself. Based on formal logic and cognitive bias research. - Strategy & Decision-Making: Learn how to weigh options, think ahead, and make choices you won't regret. Drawn from game theory, military strategy, and behavioural economics. - Stoic & Philosophical Foundations: The practical side of philosophy. How to stay steady under pressure, focus on what you control, and build a mind that doesn't crack when things go wrong. - Neuroscience-Backed Techniques: How your brain actually works - its shortcuts, its blind spots, and how to work with it instead of against it. Grounded in cognitive science and psychology research. HOW IT WORKS Every lesson is short, structured, and designed to stick. You won't just read about ideas - you'll practise applying them. Tempered uses a progressive curriculum that builds on itself, so each day you're a little sharper than the day before. Start with the fundamentals. Work through the disciplines at your own pace. Come back daily and watch the way you think actually change. WHAT'S INSIDE - Daily training lessons (~5 min each) - 1000+ quotes - wisdom through the ages - 200+ thinking principles, cognitive pitfalls and frameworks - Weekly real-world case study reports - 4 nightly reflection modes - Progress tracking across four disciplines - 32 achievements - Beautiful share cards with multiple styles - Daily wisdom widgets for your Home Screen WHO IT'S FOR Tempered is for people who've read the self-help books and want something deeper. For people who are curious about philosophy and logic but don't know where to start. For anyone who's tired of being told what to think and wants to learn how to think. If you've ever thought "I wish someone just taught me this stuff properly" - that's exactly why Tempered exists. Tempered is free to start. Explore foundational lessons, get a feel for the training, and see if it's right for you. Unlock the full curriculum with Tempered Premium. This isn't self-help. It's self-craft.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ReasonPad at none against Tempered's 3. ReasonPad also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
