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?"

Coffee, espresso, tea, energy drinks: log any caffeinated drink in one tap and watch your personal sleep-safe time update in real time.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Curfew at every 2 weeks against Matcha's every 4 months. Curfew also leads on iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
