Description
WeCroak, as seen in Recode, 10% Happier, Atlantic Magazine and The New York Times.
Find happiness by contemplating your mortality with the WeCroak app. Each day, we’ll send you five invitations at randomized times to stop and think about death. It’s based on a Bhutanese folk saying that to be a happy person one must contemplate death five times daily.
The WeCroak invitations come at random times and at any moment just like death. When they come, you can open the app for a quote about death from a poet, philosopher, or notable thinker.
You are encouraged to take one moment for contemplation, conscious breathing or meditation when WeCroak notifications arrive. We find that a regular practice of contemplating mortality helps spur needed change, accept what we must, let go of things that don’t matter and honor things that do.
We’ve also added features to make WeCroak work with your modern life. • WeCroak only sends notification between 7 AM and 10 PM • Open the app once per week to keep receiving your five daily WeCroak invitations at randomized times

"Don't forget. You're going to die." I love being reminded five times a day with inspirational quotes about death and life that: yes, I am going to die, and it could be anytime now...
★★★★☆Ahmed Z· Oct 8, 2024
Simple and effective quotes... But no way to control timing and range of reminders or even size of the text... Maybe it is a symbol of how little control we have over preparing for death.
★★★★☆Michelle Sue A· Feb 11, 2021
Just add a button that exports a shareable image of the active quote, so I can text or tweet it.
★★★★★Amelia Rusbar· Feb 18, 2022
I changed the notification sound to a brid chirp, and it's brightened up my days. Even my friends know what the sound means now, and before I even check the notification they go "don't forget you're going to die". ☺️ The quotes are great. Only flaw is that sometimes is feels like it's more than 5 times a day.
★★☆☆☆Jacopo Kristiansen Recinella· Oct 23, 2025
Liked the concept, but most of the quotes are platitudes and truisms, that have nothing to do with death. Anyone who's ever had depression once, would say these are not contemplative not existential. They need to hit harder, quality over quantity, even repeats. They need to be associated with a timer or some animation that holds you there for a few minutes. Also, 5 notifications in a day get lost in the sea of other apps notifications, which most users don't bother to stop (they come back anyway)
★☆☆☆☆Chad Lamb· Oct 26, 2022
I thought I'd embrace the nihilism, after it was recommended on Twitter. There are no settings, it doesn't close, and the first thing shown was a quote about Margaret Cho's mom saying that she should die. Not really making me think about my mortality, at all.
