Little routines. Lovely company. Buddies brings a friendly face to your everyday care. Give each daily routine a buddy, choose your times, and check in as you go. From a morning walk to a water break or a moment of calm, your buddies are there for the little things. MAKE EACH ROUTINE YOUR OWN Choose from 25 buddy characters. Name your routine, add a note, and schedule it one to four times a day. Special buddies run, read, stretch, sip, and more when you check in. MEET YOUR BUDDIES Browse the buddy library, filter by Everyday, Special, or In use, and explore each buddy's story and moods. See the routines each buddy looks after. SEE YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE Today brings your routines together in a simple list or a playful buddy view. See what is coming up and what you have already logged. A GENTLE NUDGE Set local reminders for your scheduled times. Adjust dose reminders, hungry alerts, and sound and haptics in Me. LOOK BACK ON YOUR PROGRESS Explore your history calendar, daily records, and streaks. See what you logged and when. Changing a routine's name or schedule keeps its earlier records intact. START WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Your routine records are stored on your device. No sign-in is needed, and your daily tracking works offline. A little care for yourself. A little company along the way. Buddies is a tracking and reminder tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Buddies at none against Core Community Pilates's shown. Buddies also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks). Core Community Pilates's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.4). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
