Each day, you open Komit21, see today's task, and check in. 4. Miss two days in a row → the challenge auto-cancels. The 21-day rule is strict on purpose. 5. Complete a challenge → earn a unique badge, level up, unlock more parallel challenges (1 → 3 → 10).

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Komit21 at every 9 days against Lap Swim's every 3 months. Lap Swim's advantage is device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
