A HEARTBEAT THAT SLOWS DOWN Somnia turns your iPhone into a slow, steady heartbeat: a soft pulse you can feel as a vibration and hear as a quiet, natural beat. Put the phone under your pillow or next to you on the mattress, start the pulse, and let it carry you. As the beat slows down, your body drifts along with it. HOW IT WORKS A heartbeat is a signal your body understands without thinking. When a calm pulse beats right beside you, you don't have to concentrate, count breaths or listen to anyone talk: you just feel the rhythm and settle into it. Somnia recreates that pulse with vibration and sound locked together, then lets it slow down, little by little. One detail came straight from our users: they asked us to make the pulse even slower than a real resting heartbeat. So we did. This extra-calm beat is made for one thing only: guiding you into sleep. TWO WAYS TO FALL ASLEEP • Classic: choose a steady pulse between 30 and 60 BPM and set a timer, from a few minutes to a whole night of up to 10 hours, or simply endless. • Routines: let the pulse change over time, following a gentle curve down into sleep. THREE ROUTINES, READY TO GO • Power Nap & Rise: a 15-minute nap. The pulse sinks quickly, rests low, then rises again to bring you back gently. • Wind-Down & Go to Bed: made for your bedtime routine. Start it when you get into bed: maybe read a few pages of your favorite book, or write today's journal entry, while the pulse slows down beside you. Then put everything aside and follow it into sleep. • Deep Sleep: a whole night. The pulse settles within half an hour and stays low until morning. MAKE IT YOURS Draw your own curve in the routine editor: where the pulse starts, how fast it falls, where it rests. Only you know your pace, and Somnia lets you follow it. (Part of Somnia Premium.) AN END THAT NEVER WAKES YOU Somnia doesn't stop, it fades. Over the last stretch of every timer and routine, vibration and sound gently dissolve into silence. MADE FOR THE NIGHT Lock the screen while the pulse keeps playing: nothing happens when the phone shifts under your pillow or blanket. YOUR SLEEP IS YOURS Few things are as personal as sleep. Somnia has no account, no ads and no tracking. Nothing you do here leaves your phone: your nights belong to you. FREE EVERY MONTH Somnia is free for 100 minutes each month, every routine included. Somnia Premium removes the limit for unlimited nights and unlocks the routine editor. Somnia is a wellness tool for relaxation and sleep. It is not a medical device and not a substitute for professional care, diagnosis or treatment. If you have persistent sleep problems, please talk to a doctor.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BowelLog at none against Somnia's 1. BowelLog also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). Somnia's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
