User Reviews

Users praise Betterself for concise, easy-to-understand philosophy lessons that are practical and easy to apply in daily life, including journaling and a morning/night routine. The design is well-received, and the content is thought-provoking and digestible. A key recurring critique is the limited range of philosophies available, with several reviewers calling for more topics beyond Stoicism and Tao (e.g., Nihilism, Absurdism, Existentialism).

Pros

Short, concise lessons that are easy to understand.
Practical and easy-to-apply philosophy for daily life, with journaling and end-of-day reflections.
Thought-provoking, high-quality content delivered succinctly.
Well-designed interface with helpful features like lesson plans.
Overall positive reception and strong likelihood of recommending the app.

Cons

Content breadth is limited; currently focused on Stoicism and Tao, with requests for more topics (e.g., Nihilism, Absurdism, Existentialism).

Recent reviews

This is a great product but it’s far too short , once you’ve finished both stoic and Tao then that’s it that’s all they have , which only takes a few weeks. This would be 5 stars if more philosophy’s were added.

Betterself’s course on Stoicism is thought provoking and challenging in the best way

I don’t deny the significance of the philosophies listed but the app needs a bigger list of philosophies such Nihilism, Absurdism, and Existentialism.
