Meaning, values and purpose
These tools help you think about what matters: your purpose, values and strengths, gratitude, and reading on meaning, ethics and philosophy. The Human Accord, SOS's statement of shared values, is inside the app.
The tools are free to use today and need a free account. “Open in the app” asks you to sign in or create one first.
SOS is an educational tool. It is not a doctor, therapist, financial adviser, lawyer or crisis service. Use it to learn and to keep track of your own life, and check anything important with a qualified person. Read the terms.
