What if a quick face scan or one quiet minute could help you better understand how you feel? EaseLoop uses your phone’s camera to provide simple wellness insights, including estimates such as heart rate, HRV, breathing rate, stress level, BMI, skin age, and more. Scan your face and view your results in seconds, whenever you want to check in with yourself. When you need a moment to slow down, start a guided one-minute breathing practice. Follow the visual rhythm of a 4-second inhale, 1-second hold, and 4-second exhale. You can also complete an optional 30-second wellness check-in to receive a simple Stress Level result and supporting information. Review your previous check-ins over time and notice how your reported stress changes from one moment to the next. EaseLoop is designed for everyday wellness, breathing practice, and self-reflection.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: BrainWave at 100% against EaseLoop's 60%. BrainWave also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). EaseLoop's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (129 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BrainWave sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and EaseLoop sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
BrainWave holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
