"Fire tests gold, misfortune brave men." — Seneca Six new collections. 120 new quotes. • Stoicism for real life: Money, Work, Relationships, Friendship, Adversity, and Opinion of Others — 120 new quotes, each with a mindset to carry into your day. • Your daily quote got smarter: it now moves through quotes you haven't seen yet, so it won't repeat until you've been shown every quote in your collection. A few quiet minutes a day. Calm. Discipline. Strength.

"We should every night call ourselves to account: what infirmity have I mastered today?" — Seneca The evening review is here. • Close the day the Stoic way. An optional one-tap evening check-in: did you hold to today's mindset? Answer honestly — held or slipped — and get a short word of perspective either way. • An evening reminder, on your schedule. Turn it on and pick its time in Settings; it stays off unless you ask for it. • Your evenings, on the calendar. Days you checked in are marked on your streak calendar — only the evenings you actually answered. • Fixed: an upgrade banner could briefly appear for subscribers right after launch. It no longer does. A few quiet minutes a day. Calm. Discipline. Strength.

"As long as you live, keep learning how to live." — Seneca Logos is here. • Ask Logos, your Stoic mentor. Open the Ask tab, say what's on your mind, and get grounded, practical perspective drawn from the Stoics — a conversation, when you want one. • Your version, in view. Settings now show the exact app version at the bottom. • Small tidy-up. A few quiet minutes a day. Calm. Discipline. Strength.

"No great thing is created suddenly." — Epictetus This update is about showing up — and seeing it. • Your streak calendar. Tap the flame on Today to see every day you've shown up, month by month, with each day's stats and quote. • Smarter daily reminders. Each reminder now carries that day's actual quote, works from the day you turn it on, and when a streak is on the line, a gentle evening nudge arrives before midnight. • A free Deep-Dive every day. The deeper reflection on any quote is now free once a day, not once ever. • Your widget, your theme. The home-screen widget now follows Light or Dark — and there are new Lock Screen widgets. • Finish a collection, start the next. The last idea now ends with a proper completion moment and a path onward. • Fixes: the keyboard no longer traps you in the Ask tab, iCloud sync is more dependable after reinstalls, and VoiceOver reads the reader and collections properly. A few quiet minutes a day. Calm. Discipline. Strength.

"Well-being is realized by small steps, but is truly no small thing." — Zeno of Citium This update makes it easier to keep a Stoic idea in view: • Add the widget, made simple. A short, guided walkthrough now shows you exactly how to put today's idea on your Home Screen — during setup, and anytime from Settings. A few quiet minutes a day. Calm. Discipline. Strength.

"You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength." — Marcus Aurelius This update makes Chesnota feel more like yours: • A personalized start — tell us your goal and what you're working through, and we'll point you to the right place to begin. • A refined look — a cleaner plan card, sharper icons, and a polished Light theme that's easy on the eyes day or night. • Tap the home-screen widget to jump straight to today's idea. • Accessibility throughout — stronger contrast, larger tap targets, and better VoiceOver support. A few quiet minutes a day. Calm. Discipline. Strength.

This update is all about a calmer, more beautiful Chesnota. • NEW LIGHT THEME — pick Light, Dark, or Auto in Settings. Warm parchment and gold by day, deep calm by night. • A NEW ICON — a four-point star, one arm for each cardinal virtue: wisdom, courage, justice, temperance. • A BEAUTIFUL NEW WEBSITE — a redesigned home for the practice at chesnota.speedrun.guru. • Polish and fixes throughout. "Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them." — Marcus Aurelius

Home-screen widget Add Chesnota to your home screen and see today's Stoic idea without opening the app. Available in small and medium sizes — it always shows exactly what's in the app, refreshing each morning. Plus small refinements and fixes throughout.

A quieter, clearer release. Every button now reads cleanly against the dark background, and the whole app respects your text size — scale it up as large as you like and nothing gets cut off. Small refinements in service of a calm, legible daily practice. "Well-being is realized by small steps, but is truly no small thing." — Zeno

Marcus wrote his thoughts to himself. This is yours to do the same. Everyone gets one Deep-Dive to try. Subscribers go as deep as they like.
