Coffee_ is an app that allows you to keep track of what coffee you've bought and quickly see if you like it or don't like it. You can categorize your coffee based on the form like pods, whole bean, or ground, and you can also add notes that way you know what you like or don't like about the coffee. Don't forget to say whether or not you would buy the coffee again so you can see that from the list.
Brew Coach
Read full descriptionHide full description
A quiet coach for slow coffee. V60, Chemex, Kalita, AeroPress, French press, and overnight cold brew - each filter method with its own dedicated timer, ratio calculator, and step-by-step pour schedule. Built around the rituals that filter coffee deserves: V60 cones with a bloom and three pulse pours, Chemex with a slower drawdown, Kalita Wave flat-bottom for evenness, AeroPress with the right plunger pace, French press steeped to the second, and a 12 to 24 hour cold brew that lives on your Lock Screen until morning. Why home baristas choose this over a stack of browser tabs: - Apple Watch advances the next pour with a haptic tap when fingers are wet - Live Activity tracks the long cold brew steep on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island - Each method has its own ratio default, customizable to grams or ounces - Bean log remembers what worked: photo, roast, grind, water temp, tasting notes - iCloud sync keeps recipes and history across iPhone and Apple Watch - No signup, no account. Brewing, methods, Apple Watch and iCloud are free; one-time Lifetime unlock for bean log and custom recipes. Whether the morning is a single V60 by the window or the fridge is filling with a slow overnight cold brew, the timing stays tight and the ritual stays yours. Brew Coffee Timer & Recipe is available for iPhone and Apple Watch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: coffee_ at 15.2 against Brew Coach's 26.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
