Frequently asked

When does a new bite appear?

Every day after midnight, local time on your phone. On your first day you get one bite from each school, then one new bite per day. When you have read them all, the series starts again from the first bite, and new bites arrive with updates every one to two weeks.

How do I change the language?

Tap ENG, 繁 or KOR at the top right. The German original always stays; the translation and the whole interface follow your choice. On first launch the app uses your phone's language.

How do I turn the daily reminder on or off?

Tap the bell at the top. The reminder comes at 8:00 every day. If you declined notifications earlier, allow them in Settings → Notifications → Daily Geist.

What does "pocket" do?

Pocketing marks a bite as read. A check mark appears on it in your list. It is saved on your phone only.

Why is the German spelled the old way?

Every quote comes from the first edition, as the philosopher saw it printed: "Muth", "daß", "Blüthe", "freylich". We only print the old long s (ſ) as a normal s. The source line under each quote names the work, year and page.

Where do the texts come from?

From first editions in the public domain. We read them through the Deutsches Textarchiv and digitised copies held by the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek on the Internet Archive. The translations, explanations and drawings are our own.

Do I need an account or internet?

No. The app has no account and works fully offline.

I found a mistake in a quote or a translation.

Thank you. Please email the name of the bite and what looks wrong. We check against the first edition and fix it in the next update.
