About
Kern is a sobriety counter for people who want a quiet one.
No community feed. No daily streak guilt. No paywall, no ads. Just your day count — on your home screen, in a small widget, in a calm app.
Open Kern, see your number. Close it. Live your day.
Built around what matters • A clean hero number that grows with each sober day • Milestones at 7, 30, 90, and 365 days — marked, not celebrated loudly • A small home-screen widget that fits next to your weather and calendar • Personal best preserved across resets — relapse doesn't erase your record • Editable habit label (alcohol-free by default)
Built for privacy Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no analytics, no servers. Apple's privacy questionnaire reads "no data collected" because that's true.
Not a replacement for support Kern is a counter, not a clinical tool. If you're in crisis, the SAMHSA National Helpline is free and confidential: 1-800-662-4357. Outside the US, find a helpline at findahelpline.com.
One day at a time.
