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.

## Tao Te Ching Lao Tzu Reviews in United States

### **--- "Translations WAY Off"
This app used to have great translations then there was an “update” and all the translations have completely changed.  90% of them are so bad they don’t even make any sense.  Total disappointment because it’s the only app that solely presents the Tao Te Ching.
-- robcaudy, 2024-10-14

### ***** "An amazing app and text"
Shuffling to a random passage always brings up something relevant. This app soothes me, and is a helpful translation.
-- samSepi01, 2024-08-29

### **--- "Downgraded version"
When I first downloaded the app, I could choose from three different interpretations and that option has been removed. I do not like the version that it now presents.
-- JimCr1ck3t, 2024-08-01

### ***-- "Miss the translations option…"
This was my favorite and preferred way to read the Tao, but the loss of the multiple translations makes it no longer useful.  Such a shame - I realize it’s complicated but would love to be able to pay for those translations.
-- XavaX, 2024-07-27

### **--- "Eliminating the Translations Was A Bad Idea"
I’ve downgraded my rating from a five to a two because the latest app update eliminated the various translations. In previous app versions, tapping the book icon enabled you to choose from several different translations. You could read the entire book in a particular translation. Or you could a chapter over again from several different translations and receive deeper insights. The one translation that remains is generic. The app no longer has value, so I am deleting it. The app had a good run and this is a reminder that change is inevitable and all things come to an end.
-- Fae Goddess, 2024-06-28

### ****- "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.
-- Hydrangeas00, 2024-06-25

### ***** "Ancient wisdom"
Always a grounding read
-- ohitsfetty, 2024-06-14

### **--- "What happened to the translations?"
It was better when you could toggle through a variety of translations. Why did they go away?
-- joeferal, 2024-05-30

### ***** "bring back the copyrighted versions"
love this app and its still great! was confused today when reading it, always loved the Mitchell translation
-- Marshall Farwell, 2024-05-16

### ***-- "why are the different translations gone"
the app was perfect and now there is no translation change, it really diminishes the quality of this app :(
