Love your coffee. Keep your nights. You don't have to choose between the coffee you love and the sleep you need. CaffIQ shows you how today's coffee, tea, and energy drinks turn into tonight's sleep — and exactly how late you can still enjoy your next cup, tuned to your own body. It was never the coffee. It's the timing. WHAT MAKES CAFFIQ DIFFERENT → Tuned to YOUR body Most caffeine apps use one-size-fits-all averages. CaffIQ adapts to your weight, age, and sensitivity for predictions that reflect how caffeine actually clears in your system. → See your last cup, before you pour it A real-time readiness score tells you how late you can still enjoy a coffee and protect tonight's rest. No guesswork. No 2 a.m. ceiling-staring. → Track in real time, everywhere Live Activities show your current caffeine level on the Dynamic Island and Lock Screen. Glance at Home Screen widgets. Ask Siri "When can I sleep?" — get an instant answer. WHAT YOU GET - Real-time caffeine modeling, personalized to your profile - Your personal "last cup" time to protect sleep - Live Activities (Dynamic Island + Lock Screen) - Home Screen & Lock Screen widgets - Siri Shortcuts for hands-free logging - Quick-add for coffee, espresso, tea, matcha, energy drinks, soda & more - Specialty-friendly: log single-origin, decaf, cold brew - Daily, weekly & monthly insights - Streaks and milestones - Apple Health sync (caffeine + sleep) - 5.5 MB — barely any space GROUNDED IN RESEARCH CaffIQ's timing is informed by peer-reviewed sleep science — translated into clear, everyday guidance (no PhD required). Caffeine's half-life varies widely from person to person, so a generic "stop at 2 p.m." rule rarely fits. CaffIQ does the math for you. MADE FOR → Coffee lovers who don't want to give it up — just understand their cup → Busy people who want to perform by day and sleep at night → Anyone who feels wired or jittery and wants to stay in control → People keeping caffeine under a personal limit, tuned to their body → Anyone who's ever lain awake wondering "was it the afternoon latte?"

Love coffee? Sleep great anyway. Matcha is the caffeine tracker that tells you when to stop. Log your coffee, matcha, tea or energy drink in a tap, and Matcha shows your personal coffee cutoff: the last time you can have caffeine and still be low on it by bedtime. Most caffeine apps just count milligrams. Matcha answers the questions that matter: "Can I have another coffee?" and "Will this hurt my sleep tonight?" YOUR LIVE COFFEE CUTOFF • "Coffee is OK until 3:10 PM": a live countdown to your last cup • Done for the day? See when you're "Sleep-ready at 10:50 PM" • Tonight's forecast: Great, Good, Restless or Rough sleep ahead • A friendly reminder 30 minutes before your cutoff ALWAYS IN VIEW • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show your cutoff and which drinks still fit tonight, in StandBy too • Live Activity: a countdown to your cutoff on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Siri & Shortcuts: "Log a coffee in Matcha" or "When can I have coffee in Matcha?" WHAT CAN I DRINK? • One-tap tiles for your usual drinks: "OK until 4:15 PM" or "Not today" • One tap logs it, with Undo WILL IT HURT MY SLEEP?
