I currently have an app that sends me daily stoic quotes but I was wondering if there are any apps that send you daily poems. And I don't mean poems from random independent poets but will send you daily poems from the greatest poets from around the world like poems from Shakespeare, John keats, T.S Elliott, John Milton etc.

I want it to have full poems so I have something to read daily and not just portions or short quotes.

Thanks.

What is the advantage over reading a poem from your book collection?

It is all in one place I guess and can introduce me to poets I'm not familiar with.

Yeah, sure. You just want your friends to think you are smart.

Just get a massive poetry anthology and read from that daily. If not that, I know there's poetry books that are structured to be read one poem a day for an entire year, but I have no clue how often canonical poets are included. I looked on the Google Play store and found an app called "Daily English Poems" which has canonical poets in the screenshots but I've never used this.
As for other /lit/ apps, which I sort of doubt is really a thing, I have an app that posts a new idiom or phrase every day. That;s /lit/-adjacent, I guess.

Tao Lin's blog is technically an app

I think it's literally called English Poems App. The colouring is moss-green, the logo has nine black and white poets, and it was designed by some Indian student so you have a decent choice of anglophone poets from the whole ex-commonwealth countries. It's good for taking shits with raised eye-brow.

I’m paranoid enough now where, to let an app into my phone it’s got to provide a much more substantial service than sending me a quote

Bump for interest.

Neither of these are exactly what OP asked for but in terms of lit apps I like dailyart (for art, daily) and loyal books (for copyright-free audiobooks). Aside from that, try reading books.
