Wearing headphones for hours without a break can quietly damage your hearing. EarRest watches your Bluetooth headphones in the background and reminds you to take them off and give your ears a rest — automatically. Just connect your AirPods or any Bluetooth headphones and EarRest starts timing. When you have been listening long enough, you get a gentle notification to take a break, and the next cycle starts on its own. No taps, no rituals — it simply works. Key Features: • Automatic Tracking: Detects when your Bluetooth headphones connect or disconnect and starts or stops the timer for you. • Break Reminders: Pick an interval (20 / 30 / 45 / 60 minutes) and get notified when it is time to rest your ears. • Live Activity & Dynamic Island: See wearing time and break progress at a glance on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. • Home & Lock Screen Widgets: Keep your listening time visible with widgets in multiple sizes. • Quiet Hours: Set a do-not-disturb window (even across midnight) — reminders wait politely until it ends. • Listening History: Review how long you wear your headphones each day and build healthier habits. • Works on Mac Too: A lightweight menu bar app for macOS. • Privacy First: Everything runs locally on your device. No account, no tracking, no internet required. Your hearing does not get a second chance. Let EarRest help you enjoy music, podcasts, and calls — without overdoing it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: EarRest at 5.0 against 香港巴士's 4.5. EarRest also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks). 香港巴士's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. EarRest sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. 香港巴士 asks for nothing beyond the download.
EarRest holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 香港巴士 has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
香港巴士 ships an update every 6 weeks, EarRest every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
