## What is Betttr?

Betttr is the recovery app for the post-legalization sports betting generation. If you've lost more than you can afford — chasing parlays, hiding losses, swearing "this is the last time" — Betttr gives you the tools to actually stop.

Built by people who have practiced recovery, Betttr combines streak tracking, urge-management exercises, journaling, and 24/7 helpline access in one private, judgment-free app.

MEMBERSHIP REQUIRED
Betttr is a paid app. A membership unlocks everything below — there is no free version and no free trial.

• Monthly — $12.99 per month
• Yearly — $99.99 per year ($19.99 for your first year, new members)

Prices in USD; may vary by region.

WHAT YOU GET

— Streak Tracking
Watch your gambling-free days, weeks, and months grow. Each milestone unlocks a new tier — from your first day clean to five years and beyond.

— Panic Mode
When the urge hits hard, the SOS button gives you instant access to the National Problem Gambling Helpline (1-800-522-4700, free 24/7) and four science-backed grounding exercises: box breathing, 4-7-8, physiological sigh, and 5-4-3-2-1 sensory grounding.

— AI Coach
A private, supportive coach trained on cognitive-behavioral and motivational interviewing techniques. Talk through cravings, cravings triggers, and the fears under the urge — anytime, no judgment.

— Daily Pledge
Sign a daily commitment to yourself. Small ritual, big psychological lock-in.

— Journal & Gratitude
Track your wins, name your reasons for quitting, log what you're grateful for. Recovery is built on small daily reflection.

— Library
Short, science-backed lessons on why gambling addiction works the way it does — from dopamine loops to loss-chasing psychology — so you understand the trap you're climbing out of.

— Community (optional)
Connect with others on the same path. Share posts, send encouragement, build friendships with people who get it. Fully optional and private.

— Soundscapes
Calming nature ambiences — ocean, rain, campfire, forest — for grounding moments and journaling sessions.

— Gambling Blocker
Four layers between you and a bet: a website blocker covering 10,000+ gambling sites, an app blocker backed by Screen Time, guided self-exclusion for your state, and one email that bans you from 73+ sportsbooks at once. Built to be hard to argue with at 2am.

WHO BETTTR IS FOR

You don't have to be at rock bottom. If you've ever:
- Lost more than you intended on sports bets
- Hidden losses from a partner, family, or roommates
- Felt the chase: bigger bets to win back what you lost
- Made promises to yourself you couldn't keep
- Wanted to stop but couldn't figure out how

Betttr was built for you.

PRIVACY & SAFETY

Your data is yours. Journals, urges, gratitude entries — all encrypted, never sold, never shared.

If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling addiction, the National Problem Gambling Helpline is available 24/7: call or text 1-800-522-4700.

Recovery is possible. Betttr supports you every day with practical tools designed to help you stay on track.

### 5/5 — Good features

*2026-05-25*

“The panic button” I recorded a video message to my future self. Played it back tonight and I’m just going on and on about my daughter. Love her. Gotta stay sober for her❤️

### 5/5 — SET UP YOUR PANIC BUTTON

*2026-05-20*

I just decided one day when i was using the app and feeling strong that it might be worth it to use betttr’s panic button features to leave written and video message for my future self. I wanted to help my future self who might be struggling with an uncontrollable urge.  Then today.  quit my job. boss cursed me and called me names.  i had a really strong urge to just escape.  but, because I had a future message loaded all i had to do was click it.  for the first few seconds i am listing reasons and then my boyfriend slides into frame and tell me he loves me and kisses my forehead.  small gesture but it reminded me of who im doing it for.  he’s so important to me.  My reason for being sober was right in front of me in that moment. Stayed abstinent! 10 days sober! focused on 11😇

### 5/5 — Great Features!

*2026-05-12*

I love the fact that even though this app is helping me quit gambling, it feels good to be able to ground my journey. Coming to the app and being able to have something tangible to mark my growth makes me so much more excited to do the healing. Plus it’s a hug bonus that they were so thoughtful in their programming for meditation and breathwork

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2026-05-12*

This app is a lifesaver. I haven’t gambled since signing up and I feel better (ha!) stronger and more connected to the things that matter. I love using their gratitude journal and emergency resource button the best! Thank you, Betttr!

### 5/5 — So helpful

*2026-05-09*

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.2.1 — 2026-09-02

A small but important fix: Betttr now asks returning users to turn on notifications, so streak reminders and encouragement reach you on every device. Thanks for being here.

### 2.2 — 2026-08-26

A calmer Betttr. Home has more room to breathe, every planet opens in one beautiful full-screen view, and the Journal button found its true color.

The Gambling Blocker got sharper — pick up any step right where you left off, and your app selections now remember themselves.

And a fresh start means exactly that: after a reset, your badges begin the journey again with you.

Thanks for being here.

### 2.1.1 — 2026-08-22

Small polish and behind-the-scenes improvements. Thanks for being here — Betttr keeps getting better because people tell us what they need.

### 2.1 — 2026-08-15

Betttr 2.1 is our biggest update yet: a rebuilt self-exclusion suite (guided national + state enrollment, and one letter that bans dozens of betting sites at once), a gentler fresh-start plan after a relapse, a smarter blocker setup, a clearer Journey chart, swipe navigation to your messages, and calmer notifications that never pile up.

### 2.0 — 2026-08-04

The Gambling Blocker is here. Three layers you control: block 10,000+ gambling sites, block your own betting apps, and lock it all in so an urge can't undo it.

Plus Foundation — a short checklist of the things that make the first week stick.
