Learn how to navigate the obstacles life throws at you and get motivated to follow your dreams. The compass icon communicates this idea of finding the optimal route to your desired destination.

What you’ll need

This feature requires Lifecraft Premium.

Select the Compass view

Click the Compass button in the navigation bar:

Compass messages

A new interactive message will appear every day. The Compass messages work together with the journal: each Compass message ends with a writing prompt so you’ll always have something to write about.

Speak message

Click the Speak icon at the top of the Compass view to have Zee speak the Compass message to you. For best results, download an Enhanced or Premium voice such as "Ava". See Zee Settings below for more information.

Tip: to start speaking in the middle of the message, tap a Zee face icon.

Language Translation

Compass messages can be automatically translated into 100+ languages on the iPhone or iPad. If you first read a Compass message on your iPhone or iPad, the translated message will appear on your Mac. See Zee Settings below for instructions on choosing a language.

Browse the calendar

• iPhone: tap  or swipe from the left side of the screen to open the Calendar view.

Every highlighted day in the calendar has a Compass message. Click a day to see the message. Click the date at the top of the calendar view to jump to a specific day (Today, One Year Ago, Two Years Ago, etc.)

Navigation tips (iPhone/iPad)

Swipe from the MIDDLE of the screen to navigate to a different day. Swipe from the LEFT EDGE of the screen to open the Calendar.
