Frayso is the habit tracker you can't cheat. Set a goal, then prove you actually did it - with a photo, an NFC tag, your steps, a timer, or your location. No more tapping a checkbox from your bed and going back to sleep PROVE IT, DON'T JUST TRACK IT Every check-in is backed by real proof: • Photo - taken live in the app, not picked from your camera roll • NFC - stick a tag on the bathroom mirror; scanning it means you actually got up • Steps, Timer, Location, Auto - pick what fits the goal Your streak finally means something, because it can't be faked. CHALLENGE YOUR FRIENDS Create a challenge, set the rules, and invite your crew with a link. Everyone signs the challenge contract with a Day-0 photo - then it's on. Shared activity feed, reactions, comments, and a leaderboard that shows who's really showing up. STREAKS AND STATS THAT TELL THE TRUTH Daily streaks, contribution heatmaps, and clean charts of your consistency. Miss a day? Your friends will see it. That's the point. PERSONAL GOALS TOO Not everything needs an audience. Set solo goals with flexible schedules - daily, weekly, or your own rhythm - and keep the same honest proof. MADE FOR EARLY RISERS Frayso was born from one problem: actually waking up early. Put an NFC tag across the room and your 6 AM alarm finally works - you can't check in without getting out of bed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads. No data selling. Your photos are visible only to people in your challenges. Delete your account and everything goes with it. Frayso Pro unlocks unlimited challenges, all six verification types, unlimited members, streak freeze, and detailed analytics. The free plan includes 1 challenge with up to 3 members. Pro: $6.99/month or $34.99/year with a 14-day free trial. Built by one developer, a cat, and caffeine. Terms of Use: https://frayso.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://frayso.com/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: UpChallenge at none against Frayso's 2. UpChallenge also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Frayso's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
