Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Eight Sleep at 4.8 against TECKWAVE's 3.0. Eight Sleep also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (17K vs 2). TECKWAVE's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (50% vs 28%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Eight Sleep sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 per month. TECKWAVE asks for nothing beyond the download.
Eight Sleep holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Eight Sleep has 17K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Eight Sleep's written reviews are positive against 50% of TECKWAVE's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Eight Sleep ships an update every 3 days, TECKWAVE every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
