The Little Things

The Little Things is meditation for people who can't sit still.

Each day there's one small thing to go and notice: the smell of the street you're on, the warmth of a mug in your hands, the sound furthest away from you, the first bite of breakfast, the way light lands on a wall. You don't need to close your eyes or find twenty quiet minutes. Just go and notice one little thing.

How it works:
• A new prompt every day, moving through all five senses: sight, touch, smell, sound and taste
• Not feeling this one? Tap "Another one", or pick the sense you're in the mood for
• 150 prompts for home, work, outdoors and anywhere in between
• When you notice something you like, keep it with a few words, a photo, or both
• Your moments gather in a little journal you can look back through, sorted by sense
• Want to slow down properly? Take one, three or five minutes with a prompt, and a soft chime lets you know when the time is up
• Gentle nudges, if you want them: up to three a day at random times between the hours you choose, and they stay quiet when your phone is on Do Not Disturb

Three promises:
• Free. No subscription, no paywall, no ads.
• Private. No account, works offline, and your moments stay on your phone. The app has no internet access at all.
• Gentle. No streaks to break and no scores. Miss a day and nothing happens.

If a sense doesn't suit you, switch it off in Settings and its prompts won't appear.

Inspired by research on savouring, the simple habit of noticing small pleasures on purpose.
