Your Profile screen is where you can shape the app around you. The more context you provide here, the more stoic can personalize your insights and suggestions. It’s especially valuable for our Premium AI users. Here’s what you’ll find on Your Profile screen.
Preferences
Here you can customize how stoic fits into your daily life:
- Choose when your day and week start so your reflections align with your schedule.
- Enable or disable haptic feedback and sound effects for a journaling experience that feels right to you.
- Add your name, birthdate, and a short description about yourself.
These personal details make a big difference — they help stoic understand your context and deliver more accurate and meaningful AI-powered insights.
Appearance
This is where you make stoic feel and look like your own place.
- Choose your preferred appearance settings.
- Enable mood check-ins so the app asks how you’re feeling every time you open it — a small habit that builds valuable emotional awareness.
Stoic Shield
If you want deeper focus during your journaling sessions, Stoic Shield can help. It blocks distracting apps for a set period of time, so you can stay present and concentrate on what truly matters to you.
Important: To set up Stoic Shield, you’ll need to grant the app permission to access your screen time information.
Apple Health
Here, you can set up automatic syncing between Stoic and Apple Health to easily track and manage your mental well-being. By syncing your State of Mind and Mindful Minutes data, you’ll get a more complete view of your mindfulness progress, all alongside your other health metrics, in one convenient place.
Account & Settings
The Account section brings all essential options together:
- Notifications: Control when and how stoic reminds you to journal.
- Data Storage: Decide how and where your data is stored.
- Subscription: Upgrade, manage, or view your plan (see the chapter Subscriptions and Plans for more details).
Taking a few minutes to explore and personalize Your Profile settings is the perfect way to start your journaling journey. You’ll have stoic tailored to your needs and preferences before you even write your very first entry.
