Read Stoic quotes and build better habits with Motiv.
Find quotes to reflect on, save your favorites and track your daily practices. No ads, accounts or tracking.
ONE LINE AT A TIME
Read one quote at a time. Key words are emphasized. Explore quotes from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus alongside modern quotes. Follow the topics that matter to you (discipline, resilience, courage, focus, business, stoicism and more) and the feed leans toward them. Double tap to keep a line. Share it as an image, or save it to Photos and set it as your wallpaper.
BUILD BETTER HABITS
Choose what you'll do, avoid or count each day. Set it for every day, weekdays or the days you pick, add a reminder, and mark it done. Motiv keeps your streak of days unbroken, your best run, and a month grid for every habit. Try practices inspired by Stoicism: an evening review, cold water, no complaining, memento mori, read one line, write to someone, walk without the phone, train. Each sits under one of the four virtues: wisdom, courage, justice, temperance. In the app they're called practices.
YOUR LIBRARY
Saved keeps every line you kept. My quotes holds the ones you write yourself, in your own words, with your own emphasis, and they appear in the feed alongside the rest.
DAILY REMINDERS
Choose a time for your daily reminder. You can also set reminders for individual habits.
WIDGETS
Put the day's line on your home screen or lock screen, in the theme you use in the app, or pin a line you want to keep in view. Small, medium, large and lock screen sizes.
THEMES AND ICONS
Sixteen themes named after the Aegean, two with illustrations of sea, cliff and stone behind the words, a theme creator for your own colors, typeface, emphasis and ornament, and six alternate app icons.
SIX LANGUAGES
English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil) and Russian, with the lines themselves in each language.
WHO IT'S FOR
People who read the Stoics and want the reading to change the day. People who train their mind the way they train their body. Anyone tired of feeds that shout.
Motiv is free to use. Motiv Premium, a monthly or yearly subscription, unlocks the widgets, all themes, the theme creator, the alternate icons and unlimited habits and quotes. Prices are shown in the app, and the yearly plan includes a free trial for new subscribers.

Ratings & Reviews
Fixed the buttons that did nothing in version 2.0.0: the pages in the Library, Settings, New theme and Edit practice open again.
New theme now opens straight away, without waiting for the theme picker to close.
