The app is pleasant and the proverbs are excellent 👌🏽 some of which are blank 🤔 so that bug needs fixing. Most of the features and customisation are only available when you upgrade to premium! 💰 This also includes the explanations of the proverbs, so many proverbs may not be fully understood!! 🙄 What I don't like 👎🏽 is the constant nagging to go premium then after 2-3 months, you don't get anymore proverbs? 😧 So you're effectively locked out, which means the app no longer has use! 😑

Thanks for your feedback. We’re glad you’re enjoying the proverbs! The issue you mentioned is due to a recent update — please update the app and reload to access a new, deeper set of Proverbs. If they still don't show, open settings, select apps, the app and then clear cache and storage first before reopening the app.

Really insightful app, that shines a light on ancestral wisdom through the use of proverbs. The app explains the meanings, encourages reflective thought and how these pearls of wisdom can be applied to our everyday life. It would be great if the app creators could put this all together, and publish this as a book. It would be lovely to give as a gift to someone.
