Your main character era starts today. Main Arc turns the Winter Arc trend into a plan you can actually keep: pick 3 daily rules, keep them every day until New Year (or for 30, 66 or 100 days), and watch every kept day light up your arc. HOW IT WORKS โข Pick an arc: Winter Arc, Glow-Up, Gym Arc, Monk Mode, Study Arc, Sober Arc, Money Arc, Morning Arc, Diet Arc โ or write your own โข New Year Arc: keep a few daily rules for 100 days or for all of 2027 (from December 26). โข Start with ready-made rules and change them any way you like โข Tick today's rules โ when all are done, the day counts โข Forgot to tick? Fix yesterday until midnight โข Shields save your streak when life happens โ earn one every 7 kept days โข 7 ranks you keep for good: Rookie, Committed, Focused, Unstoppable, Elite, Main Character, Legend ALWAYS IN VIEW โข Lock Screen countdown to midnight โ tick rules without opening the app โข Home Screen widgets with tick buttons, your arc and every day of it โข One evening nudge, only if today isn't done SHOW YOUR PROGRESS โข Story cards for Instagram and TikTok โข Recap video: your arc filling up, day by day โข A progress photo a day, turned into a before-and-after time-lapse MAIN ARC PRO Free includes an arc with up to 3 rules, widgets, the Lock Screen countdown, shields, ranks and story cards. Pro adds up to 5 rules, rules that tick themselves from Apple Health (steps, workouts, sleep and mindful minutes), progress photos with a time-lapse and the recap video โ as a monthly plan or a one-time purchase. The monthly plan renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage it in your Apple ID settings. Prices may vary by region. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no tracking. Rules sync through your private iCloud; Apple Health data and progress photos never leave your iPhone. HabitMint is now Main Arc โ your habits, history and Pro came with you. Privacy Policy: https://ios.service-lab.site/mainarc/privacy Terms of Use: https://ios.service-lab.site/mainarc/terms

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PomodoroGenius at none against Main Arc's 5. PomodoroGenius also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
