Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Simple Habits at Free against Yes Session's $0.99. Simple Habits also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 36 months) and ratings volume (24 vs 1).

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Simple Habits is free to download; Yes Session costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Yes Session holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simple Habits has 24 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Yes Session's written reviews are positive against 59% of Simple Habits's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Yes Session ships an update every 36 months, Simple Habits every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
