Drift

Read full description

Drift teaches the CBT-I techniques clinicians use โ€” a guided sleep-window plan you follow yourself, built from your own morning diary. Trackers measure your sleep. Drift is built around the intervention side: each week it reviews your diary and suggests how your in-bed window could move, using the published sleep-restriction titration rules (AASM clinical practice guideline; Edinger 2021), with a hard 6-hour minimum window and the full reasoning shown for every suggestion. NO FAKE SLEEP SCORE Your real sleep efficiency โ€” time asleep over time in bed โ€” charted against the 85% goal line from the published literature. No proprietary composite number, no grades. A 60-SECOND MORNING DIARY Apple Health pre-fills what it can (sleep stages, HRV, resting heart rate) so you confirm instead of typing. The diary accepts any schedule, including cross-noon and rotating shifts, and "not sure" is always an answer. BUILT FOR REAL SCHEDULES - Standard track for classic insomnia patterns - Shift-work track with a higher safety floor - Perimenopause track that doesn't penalise hot-flash wake-ups - Pain-aware track with gentler pacing READS APPLE HEALTH, NEVER WRITES TO IT Drift is read-only on Apple Health, so it can't alter or corrupt your existing health data. AUDIO NEVER LEAVES YOUR IPHONE On-device snore, cough, and sleep-talk detection stores only event labels โ€” never recordings. Plus audiogram-tuned pink, brown, white, and rain noise. SAFETY-FIRST BY DESIGN A real safety screener: bipolar disorder, seizure history, and untreated sleep apnea switch Drift to diary + education mode, where the window never narrows. Drowsy-driving warnings are built in, and the window never goes below 6 hours. AN HONEST FREE TIER The morning diary, your efficiency trend, stimulus-control education, your first computed window and your first weekly review โ€” free, forever. Drift Pro continues the weekly reviews and adds the coach, sound analysis, pink noise, and sleep stories. Cancel anytime: Restore and Manage Subscription are right inside the app. YOUR DATA IS YOURS Sign in with Apple, or keep a fully private on-device journal. CSV export is free. Delete everything, permanently, from inside the app. Drift is a private journal and educational tool, not a medical device. It teaches published CBT-I techniques but does not diagnose, treat, or cure any condition. If your sleep problems are severe or persistent, please talk to a clinician.

About

QuitVape

Features
Read full description

The first quit tracker designed for vapers โ€” not recycled from a smoking app. Most quit apps ask about cigarettes per pack, show lung cancer timelines, and overwhelm you with 50 features you'll never use. QuitVape is different. You don't have to quit cold turkey. Pick the goal that's honest for you: stop today, taper down and quit by a date you choose, cut down without stopping, or just track for a while with no target at all. QuitVape builds the plan and shrinks your daily limit week by week until you're done. Built for the way vaping actually works: โ€ข Set a daily puff limit that steps down on a schedule you control โ€ข Log every puff in one tap โ€” from the app or straight from your Home Screen โ€ข See your day at a glance: a ring that fills as you go, and how long until your next one โ€ข Watch your history fill in green for every day under your limit โ€ข Track health recovery milestones based on what happens when you stop inhaling nicotine โ€ข Watch the money you're saving grow every day Not ready for a target? Just track. Log for a few days and we'll work out your average, then offer you a plan built on your real numbers instead of a guess. When a craving hits hard, the Panic Button gives you a guided breathing exercise right when you need it. No lectures. Just a calm moment to ride it out. If you slip, your progress isn't erased. Going over your limit isn't failure โ€” it's information. Your best streak stays in your history. Every attempt teaches you something. Built for vapers in their 20s who want a tool that respects their time and doesn't guilt-trip them. But it works for anyone ready to cut down or quit nicotine. Free tier includes: โ€” Every goal: quit now, quit by a date, cut down, or just track โ€” Your daily limit, weekly checkpoints, and the full plan โ€” One-tap puff and craving logging โ€” Quit timer, health milestones, and money saved โ€” The last 7 days of your history โ€” Home screen widgets Pro adds: โ€” Log straight from your Home Screen widget, without opening the app โ€” Your complete history, not just the last week โ€” Breathing exercises for cravings โ€” Craving pattern insights and your daily average โ€” Advanced progress charts and the year-at-a-glance heatmap Your data stays on your device. No account needed. No ads. Just you and your quit. Download QuitVape. Take the first breath.
