Support

Open Settings inside the app and tap Restore purchases. Make sure you are signed in with the same Apple Account that made the purchase — a subscription belongs to an Apple Account, not to a device.

Subscriptions are managed by Apple, not by us: open the iOS Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and choose the subscription. Cancelling at least 24 hours before the renewal date stops the next charge; you keep access until the end of the period you already paid for.

The widget timeline holds one entry per day and turns over at midnight, local time. iOS decides when to actually redraw a widget and gives each app a limited refresh budget, so a widget can lag by a few minutes. Opening the app forces a reload. If a widget stays stuck for a full day, remove it and add it again.

Check three things, in this order: the notification toggle in the app’s Settings; iOS Settings → Notifications → the app, where Allow Notifications must be on; and any Focus mode or scheduled summary that could be holding the delivery. The notification is scheduled locally, so it also requires that the app has been opened at least once since the last iOS update.

The app’s language is chosen in its own Settings, French or English, independently of your system language. Passages are not machine-translated between the two: each language has its own verified translation, so a passage may read slightly differently in French and in English.

Every passage comes from a public-domain edition — Long (1862) for the Meditations, Gummere (1917) for the Letters to Lucilius, Carter (1758) for Epictetus — lightly modernized for readability, and carries its canonical reference. Modern copyrighted translations are never used. The edition is credited on each author’s page.

Please tell us, and include the reference as displayed: stoiqueapp+emmanuel@captaindev.io. Corrections ship through the versioned corpus file, so a fix can reach you without waiting for an app update.

Yes. The corpus is embedded in the app; the daily passage, favourites, widgets and notifications all work with no network at all.
