Simple Daily Quotes

A lightweight daily quote app designed to remain useful even when the connection disappears.

Summary

Simple Daily Quotes retrieves changing content from an HTTP API and keeps cached content available offline. ETag caching, offline fallback, persistent favorites, themes, and scheduled notifications turn a small content app into a complete mobile workflow with resilient behavior.
