Great app, need more input

I’ve only used the app for a week. It’s helping me not drink when I’m stressed. However I would love to have a section to add nots or a daily journal. It would help me a lot.

Great information

You can tell that this app was developed by a clinical psychologist with hands on experience in alcohol reduction therapy. The app contains tons of useful information, check it out!

Great Moderation Solution

Unlike other apps focused on abstinence, Step Away lets you create your own moderation journey by setting goals, tracking, monitoring, and reducing your alcohol intake - to help you control and change your behavior.

Unhappy

Couldn’t cancel the app!

Response from developer

Like any other subscription to an iOS app, you can easily cancel through Settings: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039

Not Free

So I can’t use the app unless I pay $5 a month? Why make it free in the first place? And it doesn’t tell you that you have to pay until AFTER it gets your information. False advertising scam.

Response from developer

Sorry you had frustrations. The app indicates on the first screen that you can use it for free for a week to see if it works for you and if you want to continue using it, you can pay the $4.99 per month subscription fee, which is cancellable anytime through Settings on your phone.

Overall pretty good

It’s a good concept, and does help a bit. However, once you get into a groove with it, it forces you to subscribe, or you can’t use it anymore. There should be a free, limited version available.

Keeps me accountable

I’m like using the app. It’s easy and I find that it keeps me accountable. It feels good to report my reduced or (absent) alcohol consumption and to be on track to meet my goals.

Great app

What I like is that you can see your data and you can keep track of progress.

Looks great

I just started using Step Away, but so far it looks like a great program to help us deal with a difficult and subversive problem. Thank you to the makers for creating a solid platform to help!

Easy and helpful

Been using this app for a few days and it’s pretty easy to use. Works well so far and gives daily tips too.
