Weird. Appreciating life - via death reminders.

The App That Reminds You You’re Going to Die
It helped me find inner peace

I welcomed these grisly reminders into my life in the hope that WeCroak, along with half a dozen other mindfulness apps, could help transform my iPhone from a stressful distraction into a source of clarity and peace.

Instead of pinging it should play the Dies Irae.

WOW!!!I'd pass on that "clarity and peace".
No way I'd want to listen to that at any time...don't you know you'll die already??
Not sure how being told so continually will give one peace.

If you want peace and clarity go visit a graveyard..read the stones...you won't feel so bad about inevitable death when you see that others (young and old) have died...
