It worked
I can't say how, but I stopped biting my nails the moment I downloaded this app. I picked a little at the edges of my fingers at first, but was able to stop myself before doing any damage. I have bitten and picked at my nails my entire life - 40 years+! This app is worth a try if you have not been able to stop on your own.

It helped, but...
I picked at my fingernails for years (decades, to be honest). I've finally stopped with the help of this app. If you're someone who can be motivated by earning a few stars, this might work for you. However, that's all it really does. There are about four to five messages on an endless loop--and those messages apply mainly to people who bite their nails. So, yeah, it worked for me, but I wouldn't highly recommend it.

Seriously the worst
Don't waste you money. It doesn't do anything at all...there is one screen that times how long you've gone without biting. That's it. Save your money and set a timer on your phone it will literally be the exact same thing.
It crashes and doesn't save the date I stopped biting
Worthless- can I have my $ back?
Its amazing that this actually worked.
When i saw all the reviews and i was think that it was abunch of bull that this actually worked.. Ive been biting my nails for over 10 years so i had to buy this to see if it actually worked.. And now ive been bite free for 10 days. Just the thought of this app in the back of my mind made me not bite my nails, i cant thank you guys enough for this app. It really changed my life.

Amazingly helpful
I have been bite free for 9 days and counting. It's fun to see how much nails grow in a day, and the encouragement really helps.
Good Motivation/Reward
I've been biting my nails since before I can remember. I've tried quitting a few times, but always end up biting or picking them off again at some point. This app provides real motivation to stick with it, because if you cave in, you have to start all over again. I think about that every time I get the urge to bite, and I haven't bit or picked at my nails in over a month! The little tips/fun facts that appear are a good reward too.

Decent
There's no silver bullet for quitting nail biting. You have to work at it, and really commit to stopping. That being said, this app does a good job at showing you that you are actually progressing, and you will soon see results. It's an assistant for the mental commitment, and little else. The one major downside is that the little motivational pieces are often grammatically incorrect - seriously irritating. A better app would have the ability to track your own progress with pictures, showing you where you were and where you're going. Overall, it might help you, but it's ultimately all on you to stop. Even with the app, it's still pretty hard.

Great Idea!
Just downloaded this app today and I think it just might be the motivation I needed. Thank you!
No longer embarressed
This app is great. I check it periodically and whenever I have that urge to revert back to biting when I get stressed, and when I see how long it's been (so far a month and a half) I can't bring myself go do it! It's worth it.
