Sad Hesper o'er the buried sun / And ready, thou, to die with him, / Thou watchest all things ever dim
Lord Alfred Tennyson
A public-domain poem on your lock screen, replaced every morning.
Poezy renders a poem as a wallpaper sized for your phone, and an iOS Shortcut sets it while you sleep. There is no app to install and no account to make — everything the renderer needs travels in the link, so the only thing you keep is the address itself. The poems are drawn from a thousand or so in the public domain, shuffled once so that every one appears before any repeats.
