KEEP CALM

Pocket Calm

Put your calm where you will actually see it. Make any phrase into a phone lock-screen wallpaper, sized so the clock never covers the words. It is made right here in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, no account needed.

A fresh calm wallpaper every morning

Want a new phrase automatically each day? The day's calm phrases live at a simple address you can point a shortcut at:

https://keepcalm.org/api/daily

On iPhone (using the free Shortcuts app):

  1. Open Shortcuts and make a new Personal Automation for a time each morning.
  2. Add Get Contents of URL pointing at the address above to fetch today's phrases.
  3. Make a wallpaper here with today's phrase, save it to Photos, and add the Set Wallpaper action to your automation.

On Android: save the wallpaper below, then set it as your lock screen in Settings. Apps like Tasker or MacroDroid can automate a daily refresh if you like, but a quick daily tap works fine too.

A one-tap signed iOS Shortcut file is on the way. For now these steps take about two minutes and are completely free.
