Said Daily: Quotes to Reflect
Three thoughts a day, quietly.
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
32,259 short thoughts, each with a written explanation and a question to sit with. Three a day, from the themes you choose. No ads, and no account needed to read.
Said Daily is a quiet place to read one thought at a time.
Each day it offers three short thoughts, drawn from the themes you have switched on. Read them, or read one.
EVERY THOUGHT EXPLAINED
Every one of the 32,259 thoughts in the library comes with what it means, in two short paragraphs written for it, and a question to sit with afterwards.
READ FOR THE DAY YOU ARE HAVING
Arrive however you are. Nine moods open onto thoughts chosen to meet you there: Calm, Motivated, Uncertain, Creative, A hard day, Grateful, Nervous, Starting over and Love. Or browse six themes and the twenty-four categories inside them. Follow one of ten reading paths: seven thoughts, one a day. Or search the whole library. Search runs on your device.
KEEP WHAT STAYS WITH YOU
Save a thought and it joins your library. Gather what you save into collections of your own. Write thoughts of your own in Your Words, and answer any thought's question in a private reflection. Reflections can be locked behind Face ID or Touch ID.
WHERE IT LIVES
Said Daily runs on iPhone and iPad, on the Mac, and on Apple Watch. Widgets put a thought on your Home Screen and Lock Screen. On iPhone and iPad you can send one to someone from Messages.
A FEW WORDS, SHARED WITH PEOPLE YOU CHOOSE
Groups are private and invite-only. There is no directory, and no way in but an invitation: a link, a QR code or a six-character code. Post a thought to a group, or say something back, and the group sees it under your name. Your reflections are never shared with a group, and your saved thoughts only when you post one.
QUIET BY DESIGN
No ads, no analytics, no third-party SDKs, and nothing is tracked. The thoughts you save, the ones you write in Your Words and your reflections stay off Said Daily's server, unless you post one to a group or send one to Jeffrey as a suggestion.
You do not need an account to read, save or write. Signing in with Apple is optional. It carries your library to your other devices through your own iCloud, and Groups needs it.
The Daily Thought, the Weekly Digest, Weather Notes and Notes from Jeffrey each have a switch of their own, and each one can be off. Each group has its own switch for new thoughts and replies, and reactions to yours. The Daily Thought comes at a time you choose.
32,259 thoughts. 29,229 written by Jeffrey Hakim, and 3,030 quoted from 152 people, among them Marcus Aurelius, Montaigne and Emerson. Each is named beside their words.
