The Tao Te Ching, Daodejing, or Dao De Jing, also simply referred to as the Laozi is a Chinese classic text. According to tradition, it was written around 6th century BC by the sage Laozi (or Lao Tzu, literally meaning "Old Master"), a record-keeper at the Zhou dynasty court, by whose name the text is known in China. The text's true authorship and date of composition or compilation are still debated, although the oldest excavated text dates back to the late 4th century BC.

Ratings and Reviews
App is a must buy
I own 7 versions of the Tao te Ching because each has unique interpretations. This has been a great addition to my collection and one of few apps I open daily.
Moreover, the developer has been providing fantastic updates which is rare in today’s mobile application world.
Oh and that WSJ reviewer needs to get over itself and stop being so politically childish. This app is GREAT!
Developer Response ,
🙏🙏🙏
Recently downgraded significantly, but still a good app
App works great, nothing excessive, very clean, very easy to navigate. The app used to have four separate translations of the Tao Te Ching, and the developer has replaced them with one version now, probably because of copyright issues, which is disappointing. I really appreciated having multiple interpretations to switch through, to understand and experience the text in different ways. Anyway, the app is still solid, and the current translation seems good to me. I would still recommend the app to those looking for a very lightweight, simple way to read the Tao Te Ching on mobile.
Nice app but it needs some sort of bookmark
I really like this app, but I wish there was someway to keep track of where we left off if we are reading the chapters in order. Perhaps that last chapter read could be highlighted in the table of contents. This would be great.
Also, when, using the shuffle feature, I would like to be able to go back to the previous chapter that I just read. Some sort of go back function would be nice, because if you use the shuffle future, if you can’t remember the chapter number of the previous one that you read, there’s no way to find it. I would like to be able to go back to the previous one, and the one before that, and the one before that.
But out of these two features, the bookmark feature would be better. I really would like to be able to read the chapters in order and remember where I left off.
Thank you to the app creator for listening!
