Once - Daily Affirmations.
One affirmation each morning, at a time you choose. No feed, no streaks, no badges — just a single, deliberate thought to start the day grounded.
About the app
A small app, on purpose.
Once delivers a single affirmation each morning at a time you set. That’s the whole product. There’s no feed to scroll, no streak to break, and no upsell.
Your history of past affirmations is stored locally on your device. We don’t collect personal data, we don’t run analytics that profile you, and you don’t need an account to use the app.
Once is built and maintained by DesignLite, a small UK studio. If something isn’t working — or you want to tell us what would make Once better — get in touch using the form on our contact page. A real person reads every message.
Common questions
Quick answers.
- My reminder didn't arrive
- Check that notifications are enabled for Once in iOS Settings → Notifications → Once. If the toggle is on, open the app once to re-arm the next morning's reminder.
- I want to change my reminder time
- Open Once, go to Settings, and tap the time. The next affirmation will land at the new time.
- I lost my history after reinstalling
- Once stores your history locally on-device. If you delete and reinstall the app, the previous history can't be recovered. We're keeping the app intentionally simple — no account, no cloud sync.
- I'd like to suggest a feature
- We read every suggestion. Use the contact form below and tell us what would make Once better for you.
