Why people use Contrast

Timers, plans, and honest self-tracking

Built for people who want reliable cold and heat practice — with room to notice what actually helps them, not hype.

Compare personal routines with sample sizes and neutral language — never claims of causation.

❤️

Optional Apple Health

Correlate resting heart rate, HRV, sleep, and more only when you allow it. Timers work without Health.

Streaks & history

Check-ins, streaks, weekly totals, and notes stay on your device so progress is yours to keep.
