Sprout

Sprout locks your distracting apps at bedtime and shows you how much better you sleep for it. Now with Lock buddy and Friends, so you can protect your nights together. FREE TO USE Sprout is free, supported by ads. Premium removes the ads and adds the AI: meal scans, recipes and the coaches. One payment for life, or a small monthly plan. SLEEP BETTER TOGETHER β’ Lock buddy: choose a friend who decides when you can unlock early. They get a notification with how long and why, and tap Yes or No. No answer within 15 minutes means your apps stay locked. β’ Ask from the blocker: when a locked app stops you, ask your buddy right from the blocker screen. β’ Friends: a weekly podium of who keeps their lock the most nights, with streaks, a crown for the winner and a nudge when someone passes you. Friends see nights kept and time protected, never your sleep data and never which apps. β’ Skip tonight: need a night off? Skip just tonight, and your lock comes back tomorrow by itself. THE BEDTIME LOCK β’ Pick the apps that keep you up. Sprout locks them before bed, every night, with Apple Screen Time. β’ Before every early unlock: a 10-second pause and a reason. Often enough to change your mind. β’ A blocker screen that greets you by name and counts every time it protected your sleep. β’ A focus window and daytime rhythm blocks that lock apps during the day, too. SEE THE DIFFERENCE β’ Sprout compares your nights with the lock to your nights without it: when you fall asleep and how long you sleep, from Apple Health. β’ Time back: how much of your evenings the lock has given back, in hours and days. β’ Every morning, last night at a glance. YOUR RHYTHM, YOUR ROUTINE β’ Tonight's routine on your Lock Screen: caffeine and alcohol cutoffs, wind-down and habits, timed to your bedtime. β’ Cycle and circadian tracking: see how your energy and sleep shift across your cycle and your day. β’ Fuel: log your meals, track calories and macros and see how your day adds up. β’ Morning check-ins and a streak that grows your Sprout. SPROUT PREMIUM β’ AI meal scans: snap a meal, a barcode or your fridge and get it logged and scored for recovery. β’ Recipes from what you have, from a few words or from a reel. β’ AI coaches you can ask anything, like "why am I so tired this week?" β’ A night brief and a cycle report to share with your doctor. β’ No ads. Sleep better. Scroll less. Together. β The bedtime lock, Lock buddy, Friends, sleep insights, habits, rhythm blocks and the Fuel log are free, supported by ads. Sprout Premium removes ads and unlocks AI meal scans, recipes, the AI coaches, the night brief and the cycle report. β’ Lifetime: a one-time purchase. Monthly: an auto-renewable subscription. β’ Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Privacy Policy: https://sprout-ventures.ch/privacy Terms of Use: https://sprout-ventures.ch/terms

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Sprout at every 3 days against SimpleTemp's weekly. SimpleTemp's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
