Somatic helps you choose short breathwork and grounding practices for the body state you notice now. Use visual pacing, simple prompts, and research-informed notes to settle, re-orient, or unwind. It works offline, collects no data, and offers a one-time premium unlock. These practices support relaxation and self-care; they are not medical treatment or diagnosis.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: helloHOPE at none against Somatic's 1. helloHOPE also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Somatic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months). On price there is nothing between them.
