Soul Project is a focused meditation app. There are no guided sessions, no ambient soundscapes, and no distractions. Just a clean, purposeful timer that supports the practice as it is — silent, inward, and consistent. Soul Project is a simple tool for anyone committed to showing up every day. THE TIMER Set a daily goal and let Soul Project guide you through phases of your practice. The outer ring tracks your overall daily progress; the inner ring tracks the current phase. DAILY GOALS Start with a shorter session and build gradually using the progression plan — or set a fixed goal that works for your schedule. The app remembers every session and carries your progress forward through the day. PROGRESS See your practice at a glance — total time this week, your current streak, longest streak, and a full calendar showing every day you sat. All data is stored privately on your device. THE GUIDE A curated collection of short reflections — covering posture, the wandering mind, regularity, surrender, and more. A new reflection is featured each day, and the full library is always available to browse. HEALTH Optionally log your sessions to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes. PRIVACY No account required. No data leaves your device. No subscriptions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Soul Project at 5.0 against YMCALI's 1.3. Soul Project also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). YMCALI's advantage is ratings volume (15 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
