CONKA - Brain Performance, Measured Most apps tell you to train your brain. CONKA measures it. In 90 seconds you get a clean, repeatable read on how well your brain is working right now. A test you can't game - Practice doesn't move your score. You can't get "better" at the CONKA test the way you get better at a puzzle, and that is the point. - Your score reflects how sharp you are today, not how many times you've played. - It isn't an IQ test. It's something more useful. Your cognitive fingerprint - Five dimensions: speed, accuracy, focus, control and consistency. - CONKA maps you across all five and benchmarks you against real population data, so you know where you genuinely stand. See what moves your score - Sleep, stress, caffeine and training load all shape how your brain performs. CONKA shows you which ones matter for you. - Your check-in uses the scales sleep and sports scientists use, so small shifts in how you feel are captured, not rounded away. - Patterns start from your very first test. - If you take CONKA, the app shows you in plain language how your sleep, focus and mental fatigue look on the days you do. Level up as you go - Every test earns XP, including the ones you've already taken. - Your level colours your avatar and unlocks new rings. Test seven days in a row for the Focus ring. - Collect badges for tests taken, testing habits and your time with CONKA. Better with people - Climb the global leaderboard, where your level sits next to your name, or start a private board with friends. - Send a nudge when it's their turn. Testing is more fun when someone is watching. A rhythm that compounds - Every test comes with a snapshot: today against your normal, and what you logged going in. - A monthly recap turns scattered tests into a story you can see. - Warm-up games get you sharp before you test.

Starting a journey with cold water? This app has free guided content and inspirational stories with plenty more to come in this space. For Brass Monkey customers, this app helps your bath or barrel become even smarter: • Use it to connect your bath or barrel to the Brass Monkey cloud for remote monitoring, support and software updates • Control your Brass Monkey from anywhere and set eco schedules for it to be cooling only when you need it to • Access product guidance and get reminders of maintenance tasks • See the status of your Brass Monkey and get notified of any issues • For those with a Brass Monkey zero degree ice generating product, this new app gives greater control of the bath’s patented ice cycles, offering 3 levels of ice generating intensity. The new features this app brings from the last: • A redesigned interface to make navigation and bath status more intuitive • As customers were telling us they want more control over exactly when the cooling engine is on or off, we’ve also simplified the scheduling feature • We’ve simplified the ice cycles on ice baths. So now, under 2 degrees, you can now set the intensity of ice production, removing the guesswork of using a temperature setting to get ice • Improved responsiveness between the app, Brass Monkey cloud and your bath • Greater set of maintenance reminders and issue alerts, with push notifications to your phone • Water flow rate alerts for chiller engine products.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Brass Monkey at free against CONKA App's ad-supported. Brass Monkey also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
