Sipling
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sipling turns drinking water into something you can see. Every glass waters a sapling. Hit your daily goal and it becomes a tree in your own forest. Miss a day? Nothing dies. Your sapling simply waits for you. A FOREST THAT NEVER WITHERS Most habit apps punish you. Sipling doesn't. There is no guilt, no dying plant, no broken heart icon. A day you missed is just a young sapling, still standing. A GOAL THAT FITS YOU Your daily target is calculated from your weight, sex, age and activity level, based on the European Food Safety Authority's reference values for water from drinks. You can always adjust it yourself. NOT EVERYTHING COUNTS THE SAME Tea, coffee, milk, juice and soda are counted with their own hydration factors โ 250 ml of coffee is not 250 ml of water. Alcohol counts against you, honestly. REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY ARRIVE Sipling reminds you between your waking hours, at the interval you choose, and goes quiet once you reach your goal. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Sipling has no server and no account. It goes online for only two things: ads, and anonymous crash and usage measurement โ you can turn the measurement off in Settings. Everything you enter lives on your device and nowhere else. You can erase all of it in one tap. EIGHT TREE SPECIES, TEN ACHIEVEMENTS Oak, pine, sakura, maple, acacia, olive and more. Unlock them by keeping streaks and growing trees โ never by paying for the basics. SIPLING PRO Pro removes ads and unlocks seasonal forest themes and a few cosmetic trees. Tracking, goals, statistics, reminders and your forest are free, forever. We will never put a paywall in front of the things that matter. โ No interstitial ads between screens. โ No ads during celebrations. โ No account, no sign-up, no tracking. Drink water. Grow a forest. Be kind to yourself.

Afterday
Read full descriptionHide full description
Afterday helps adults through separation, divorce or a breakup, and the adjustment afterward. Open it when you are having a hard time, when something difficult is coming up, or when you want to enjoy life again. Each choice leads to a way of coping you can use today. I'M HAVING A HARD TIME Choose what is closest: missing them, a mind that will not stop, a house that feels empty, or anger. Answer one question, then try a short sensory exercise, write down what is on your mind, or pick a small action away from the screen. Afterday is written for nights when you feel lonely, anxiety before a difficult conversation, and grief after the end of a marriage. SOMETHING DIFFICULT IS COMING UP Choose the situation (a legal day, a family date, an evening on your own), when it happens and the kind of support that would help. Afterday suggests a short plan for before, during and afterward. Edit it until it fits your life, then find it on the home screen when the day comes. I WANT TO ENJOY LIFE AGAIN Explore ideas for your home, friendships, hobbies and rest. Pick one thing and decide when to try it. Afterward, try it again or choose something different. WRITE BEFORE YOU REPLY Before you answer a message, write your reply in Afterday. Save it as a draft and choose when to read it again. Afterday never sends it. PRIVATE ON YOUR DEVICE โข No account, no sign-in, no email address. โข Your answers, notes, drafts and plans are saved on your device in encrypted storage. Afterday does not upload them. โข No AI reads your writing. Every suggestion is written in advance and selected using your answers. โข Afterday never sends messages for you. โข Export a readable copy or delete your private data from settings at any time. NO STREAKS, NO HOMEWORK Healing has no timetable, and there is no daily check-in to keep up. Write a note when you feel like it, as a journal with no schedule. Your plans and recent writing wait on the home screen. REMINDERS ARE OPTIONAL Choose a weekly reminder, occasional updates from Afterday, or neither. Notifications never include your writing. 25 LANGUAGES The whole app is available in 25 languages. Change the language in settings at any time. MEMBERSHIP Your first guided session is free. Afterday membership unlocks further guided sessions. Your saved notes, drafts and plans, the writing tools, export and deletion, and the urgent help resources are always free. Membership is an auto-renewing subscription. Depending on the offer shown, it starts with a 3-day free trial and then renews monthly, or with one month at an introductory price and then renews yearly. The price in your currency is shown in the app before you subscribe. Payment is charged to your App Store account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Afterday at none against Sipling's shown. On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
