Anchor helps you use your phone a little less — on your terms, and without a subscription. Pick the apps that pull at you, choose how firmly to hold them, and Anchor does the rest. It is built entirely on Apple's Screen Time tools and runs completely on your device. Nothing is uploaded, tracked, or shared. THREE WAYS TO BLOCK • Scheduled — put apps to bed during set hours, like 10pm to 8am. • Delayed access — a short, calming pause before an app opens. Friction, not a wall. • Daily budget — a time allowance; once it is spent, the app rests until tomorrow. A LOCK THAT HOLDS YOU TO IT Turn on a commitment lock and you will not be able to weaken or switch a profile off until it expires — you can only make it stronger. It adds a real cooldown before you can change your mind, for the moments willpower alone does not cut it. You always keep full control of your device in Settings. QUIET, ENCOURAGING INSIGHTS See how often you chose to wait, your streak of steady days, and the time you reclaimed — all counted privately on this phone. PAY ONCE. NO SUBSCRIPTION. The free version gives you one full-featured profile, commitment lock included. Unlock unlimited profiles and ready-made templates with a single one-time purchase. No monthly fee, ever. • 100% on-device — no account, no ads, no tracking • Supportive, never shaming • Beautiful in light and dark Anchor is a calm, one-time-purchase tool for anyone who wants a firmer, kinder way to step back from their phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: M8 at none against Anchor's 1. M8 also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
