EarthEcho turns sustainable living into something you can see, measure, and feel proud of. Log a shower, a meatless meal, a bike ride, or a bag of recycling and watch your personal footprint shift in real time. Every action is translated into a human-readable comparison, like "the water of 3 showers" or "the COโ of driving 4 miles", so the numbers actually mean something. WHAT YOU CAN TRACK โข Carbon: diet, energy, travel and home emissions โข Water: showers, dishwashing, laundry, garden use โข Plastic: single-use items avoided or recycled โข Recycling: what you sorted, what you diverted from landfill โข Transport: walks, runs, cycles and public transport trips โข Fashion: second-hand, repaired or rented over new APPLE WATCH COMPANION EarthEcho includes a full Apple Watch app. Quick-log a walk, run, cycle or any common activity straight from your wrist, glance at your stats, streak and leaderboard position, and your entries sync to your iPhone automatically. APPLE HEALTH (VIA APPLE WATCH) When you track a walk, run or ride with the EarthEcho Watch app, it uses Apple Health to record the workout and logs it as low-carbon transport, so the activity you are already doing counts towards your weekly impact. Reading and writing Health data are both opt-in and can be turned off at any time. BUILT TO KEEP YOU GOING โข Streaks for consecutive days logged โข Badges for milestones, categories and consistency โข Points based on real environmental impact โข Weekly and monthly trends with clear charts โข A friendly leaderboard if you want to compete (opt-in) COMMUNITY Join a forum of people swapping tips, recipes, and small wins. Read curated guides on everything from composting to ethical wardrobes. Share progress with friends or keep it private, your choice. You can report or block anyone, so the space stays friendly. PRIVACY FIRST Sign in with Apple, an email/password account, or a passwordless link. Your Health data is used only on the Apple Watch and stays under your control. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from inside the app. WHY EARTHECHO Most footprint calculators give you a one-off number and leave. EarthEcho is designed for the long game: small, repeatable actions, tracked over weeks and months, with the kind of feedback loop that actually changes habits. It is free to use, with no ads. Start small. Log one thing today. See it again tomorrow. That is the whole idea. Questions or feedback? Email contact@earthecho.co.uk and we read every one.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: EarthEcho at every 2 months against Champneys Spas's every 6 months. EarthEcho also leads on device support (4 vs 2). Champneys Spas's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
