## What is AlcoGrip?

AlcoGrip is the no-nonsense alcohol tracker for iOS. Using AlcoGrip, you can keep track of your alcohol consumption via your phone, directly via your Apple Watch, or straight from your home screen or lock screen. Add your own drink presets or add consumptions manually, and gain insights in your alcohol usage. AlcoGrip automatically groups your consumptions in sessions, and you can see the consumptions you logged in the past 24 hours, week, month, or since the start of the year. AlcoGrip will also remind you to keep logging your consumptions, since thinking about an app is the last thing you want to do when you're enjoying some beverages. AlcoGrip can also integrate with Apple Health and Shortcuts, and provide data about your consumptions.

AlcoGrip does not require any subscription or in-app purchases to work, once you got the app - it's yours forever.

- iPhone widget for your home screen, lock screen, and smart stack - track your session, last 7 or 30 days, or year-to-date at a glance
- Apple Watch complication in circular, rectangular, and corner styles

- Swipe a logged drink in your history to log it again with the current time
- Favourite your most-used drinks and search by name to keep your collection manageable
- Smarter reminders that mention which drink you logged and let you log again in one tap
- Integration with Apple Health
- Integration with Shortcuts
- iCloud sync to store your data on all your devices

### 2/5 — Not very simple

*2026-01-07*

I wish it were easier to log drinks by units or type of alcohol, instead of having to input the different types of drinks beforehand. If I order a new cocktail or a different pint than usual, I can’t input it without going through a whole setup page, and that defeats the simplicity a bit.

### 4/5 — Needs Watch complications

*2025-11-04*

This does nearly everything I need it to do except I’d like a complication for the watch that shows current number of standard drinks and when tapped provides a quick way to log a consumption. I made a shortcut and set my action button on Apple Watch Ultra to log a drink, but it really needs to be quicker and more discreet with less taps and no dings that are distracting and let others know you’re tracking your drinks.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review! Widgets and Complications are work in progress, I hope to ship that soon!

### 5/5 — Great App but…

*2025-07-25*

The app works great and syncs with Apple Health perfectly. I really like the interface and the functionality One thing I can’t believe though is that there aren’t any default categories for drinks. When entering anything you have to start from scratch and create a “wine” or “beer” category and then create a specific drink. I can handle creating the individual drinks, I like the idea of tracking specific brands and alcohol contents

### 5/5 — Super easy to use, flexible

*2025-03-04*

Perfect for fast tracking of alcohol consumption, even after a few drinks!

### 5/5 — Top! Highly recommended!

*2025-02-25*

Fantastic app to track your drinks. Highly recommend in case you want to moderate your alcohol consumption.

### 5/5 — Sought after essential app

*2025-01-13*

We needed an app that helped me track  the number of drinks I consume but sadly we also need an app that tracks Alcohol by volume. This app only tracks the number of drinks, not the alcohol by volume.  Please consider adding this feature as it would result in more sales for you.

### 5/5 — Love the Watch app and great tracking

*2024-05-09*

I had a birthday recently and thought I was getting old and should review my health. So I’m doing more exercise, eating better and I wanted to understand how much alcohol I'm drinking. It is most days but just a craft beer or two, plus some social events and quite hard to judge. Therefore, I got this app. I tried a few other apps, but they were too preaching. This simply tracks, very efficiently and quickly. I can log a drink without any fuss.
After a month, I have a clearer idea and it is higher than I would have guessed. I will set some goals in the app and moderate a little.
Overall, cool and recommended!

### 4/5 — Gute App!

*2024-03-25*

Tolle App und wird häufig benutzt. Vor allem die Integration in Apple Health ist für mich wichtig. 
Zwei Features welche ich mir wünsche:
- Bessere Statistik (Vergleich von Monaten und Jahren)
- Export als JSON und/oder CSV

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review! I don’t really speak German so allow me to respond in English :) I’m working on improving the statistics and exports are also on the roadmap, so keep an eye out for upcoming updates!

### 5/5 — Best Alcohol tracker in appstore

*2024-01-27*

Thank you for a great tracking app. I accidentally found it from your reddit post and realized that it is the best alcohol tracking app after trying multiple others.
Definitely waiting an update!
It would be perfect if you could add a simple widget with drink presets icons that you can click on and add a consumption in one click without opening an app.
And you need to add a button for tips.

### 4/5 — Amazing app with just one issue

*2023-11-29*

I love this app! Great to use on the watch and syncs with Apple health. However, I really wish that it would log the standard drinks drank instead of just counting all different types of drinks as one. It shows you in the app how many standard drinks you’ve had based on the alcohol percentage in the drinks but it doesn’t record that number to Apple health.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! I’m aware of this issue and working on the next version of the app, in which this will be addressed!
