Simple yet SO effective!

I absolutely love the simplicity of this app. Being able to see your progress from a calendar view is an absolute game changer. Big big big fan!

Sober sorta

This app is good for helping you string days in a row. One yellow or red day doesn’t look bad but when you start seeing them pile up this app helps you get back on track and in the green.

정말 좋은 앱

디자인도 괜찮고, 술 기록하는 과정이 재밌습니다.

Cute app! And useful to moderate

I’m a typical UK office worker that has a tendency to have a couple more than I’d like to on the weekend or at the work night out - this is a great way to keep me honest and it’s a very cute design too!

Absolutely the best!

I have been using this app for over a year, managing my drinking patterns based on the SobriScore. It is absolutely the best!

Best drink tracking app available!!

This is one of the best apps I’ve used for tracking my poor drinking habits. The good news is that this app keeps me honest and have seen a massive improvement over all!

They got greedy and ruined it!

This app USED to be amazing. It genuinely helped me cut back on my drinking quite a bit. However, they’ve made it so you need to pay 5 dollars a month just to be able to see the dates on the calendar and to be able to go back and edit if you forgot to log a day.

5 dollars a month for that is insanity. It’s always such a shame when a small company that puts out a decent product goes onto ruin it in an effort to get more money. The apps practically useless now and it also looks horrific. There’s no numbers on the calendar anymore, just a bunch of lock symbols.

Hello! Thank you for your message and sorry for the inconvenience. Can you send me a message so I can unlock you? Thanks!

Premium Features

This was a great app that I got a bunch of my friends on and we liked the features, the UI, and how easy it was to use. Hopefully future plans for this app get to a place where the features currently behind a paywall can be free again, they are very handy and exactly what an app like this should include.

Game changing app - and great customer service!

This app has been the best one I’ve tried for cutting down my alcohol consumption. It’s simple to use, has intuitive design and really does keep me on track.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but I recently found a bug in the app and contacted the company email. François replied within 2 minutes and immediately set to resolve the issue. I was so impressed by the speedy and friendly response! He went above and beyond to sort it. Thank you! :-)

Overly simplistic - room for improvement

I was intrigued when I ran across this but very quickly decided that it’s not what I wanted. In my opinion it has room to grow. Here’s why. What’s your definition of “drink”? Typically a drink is determined based on the number of shots in it. Different drinks are given different weights based on the amount of alcohol. My typical “drink” is 4oz of whiskey over a single ice cube. While I classify that as 1 “drink” it’s technically 4! If I have 2-3 then you can see where we get very quickly. This app needs the ability to put in drink recipes (or have pre-loaded drink types) so that the user has the opportunity to reliably enter an honest record. The whole basis of this app is for the user to be honest with themselves about their consumption, but knowing what their actual count is starts with understanding the ACTUAL numbers. ESPECIALLY if that number is going into Apple Health!!!

Response from developer

Hello Eric, Thank you very much for your feedback. This was actually a deliberate design choice: we wanted to keep drink logging simple rather than making it overly sophisticated. I completely understand your concern, but I’d like to clarify the Apple Health point. Drylendar saves data using Apple Health’s numberOfAlcoholicBeverages record, which Apple defines as “a quantity sample type that measures the number of standard alcoholic drinks that the user has consumed.” Because of that, there is no approximation or custom interpretation on Drylendar’s side ; the value is stored exactly in the format provided by Apple Health.

It’s great

Really helps to see how much you actually intake

Alcohol free

The best

Great for visual people

Love this app

Cool app

Responsive admin that will help you if the price is too much.

Clear and simple

Great app! Clean and pretty design, very informative. I like the simplicity of it. It adds some fun and challenge to invite friends and try to beat someone’s dry streak

Response from developer

Thank you so much! Happy you like the design and the simplicity. Glad you're using Drylendar!

Great App

For those complaining about the black-and-white boxes despite paying for the subscription, the issue is in iPhone’s accessibility settings. Great app overall - so simple and effective.

Response from developer

So nice to read your comment, simple and effective are words I like to read about Drylendar! Thank you for using it!

Paywall

App was good until paywall was added to edit days from before. $5 per month is too much to justify for a basic feature like that.

Great app

I’ve been using this app daily for the last 5 months and I love it. It’s so simple yet helpful. I always look forward to logging every day and it’s satisfying to see all the green boxes. I initially just wanted to cut back on drinking (which I did!) but now trying to keep my streak going for sober days. On day 39 so far without any alcohol and excited to see how far I go. This app gives me something to look forward to. To log an accomplishment every day really makes you feel good about yourself. I would just recommend a dark mode for this app :)

So nice to read this comment, and congratulations for reducing and stopping alcohol! That's a great accomplishment! So happy that Drylendar can help!

Easy to use

Easy to use and exactly what I was looking for in this type of app

Color coded feature got removed

I have been using this app since two months, but suddenly with an update the app turned colorful months into black and white. I thought maybe free users have this, so i bought free trial, to confirm this, but still it is black and white, which is very annoying and makes it hard to see the streak. Actively looking to switch to any other app, because bills can’t be that high.

Hello there! Sorry for this bad experience, it’s because an accessibility option is enabled on your phone. Can you contact me so I can help you to get the colors back?
