## What is Limiter?

A limiter doesn't mute the signal. It caps the peaks.

Limiter counts every clean day you've had, across every run, and gives each day four moves: a pledge, one meeting, one person, and an evening review. Each takes under a minute. Nothing is scored.

For gambling, drinking, drugs, vaping, weed, porn, gaming, shopping, your phone, or anything else you want to stop or cut down.

WHAT'S FREE, ALWAYS
· The counter. Total days and current run.
· Today: a pledge, one meeting, one person, an evening review.
· Online and in-person meetings, each linked to the fellowship's own listing, on your phone and offline.
· Online meetings starting soon, one tap to join, and a page for every meeting with what to expect the first time.
· A reminder before a meeting you keep, with Join or Directions on it.
· Log the meetings you go to. Count 90 in 90 if you want to.
· Up to five people. Call or text in one tap, with a message written ahead.
· If-then plans for your own triggers.
· A panic screen that works with no signal: your people, your plans, your own letter, and crisis numbers. One tap from the Lock Screen.
· A private journal with no length limit, and an evening review.
· Guided inner work: what matters, and what it has cost.
· Encrypted sync across your devices. No account, no sign-in, no password.
· Your own hard dates: one quiet reminder the evening before.
· Export everything.

YOUR TOTAL NEVER RESETS
Most apps zero you out after a relapse. Limiter tracks two numbers: every clean day you have ever had, which only goes up, and your current run, which starts over. A relapse moves one number and adds to the other. Then it asks what happened before it, because that's the part worth knowing.

CUTTING DOWN COUNTS
Not everyone is going for zero. Set a cap instead: how much, how often, how long, with a cooling-off period after. This one was built for it.

IT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
Your journal, your notes, the people you add, the meetings you go to and everything you log about what you used stay on your device and in your phone's own backup. They are never uploaded to us, never read, never moderated. There is no account to create and no server holding your history.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.3 — 2026-10-19

FIXED
· With the app lock on, entering the right passcode could lock the app straight back up. It opens now.

### 1.2.2 — 2026-10-18

MEETINGS
· A meeting counts on the night you went, even if you answer "Were you there?" after midnight. It now asks for up to 12 hours.
· Reminders have Join and Directions on them, and you can pick 15, 30 or 60 minutes before.
· A reminder says only when your meeting starts. It doesn't name the meeting or the fellowship on your Lock Screen.
· Meetings you keep follow their listing. If the time changes, the reminder moves with it. If the listing is gone, the meeting says so.
· Type a postcode or town and the finder now finds in-person rooms by their address, and remembers what you typed.
· In person works for every fellowship. Where the app has no rooms in a building for AA, NA or Al-Anon, it opens their own meeting finder.
· The meeting list was checked: wrong times, map pins and dead links fixed, and open or closed meetings marked. The bottom of the finder shows the date of the listings.

FIXED
· Tapping a meeting reminder could close the app. Not any more.
· Limiter Full unlocks the moment you buy or restore it.
· A lapse dated before your current run started no longer adds days to your total.
· A swipe no longer throws away what you were writing. Discard asks first.
· The question on LOG opens the journal with that question in it.
· "Made it" in Ride it out logs the urge.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-09-30

FIXED
· I need help opens the panic screen again. In 1.2 it could open a blank screen with no way back.
· Breathe and Ride it out count from the first second, and the breathing circle sits in the middle of the screen.

THE LOCK, KINDER ON THE WAY BACK
· When the app opens something for you (a call, a text, a link, a meeting, Mail) and you come back within a few minutes, it doesn't ask you to unlock again.
· After a call or a text from the panic screen or the crisis lines, it stays open for 30 minutes.
· Pressing Home, switching apps or locking your phone still locks it.

### 1.2 — 2026-09-29

YOUR OWN DATES
· Mark the days that are hard for you: an anniversary, a loss, a holiday. The evening before, one quiet reminder that says nothing about why. On the day, a line to tell your person.

TAPERING, DONE PROPERLY
· Every step now has its own amount and date. Pick the day you reach zero and the steps lay themselves out; change any of them.
· A plan from your clinician is saved exactly as you type it. Limiter adds nothing to it.

HELP WHERE YOU ARE
· In the UK, Ireland, Canada and Australia, your country's own crisis lines come first. Everywhere else, your local emergency number.
· Panic from the Lock Screen and Control Center, one tap away.

A QUIETER COUNT
· After 90 days you can hide the day count. The date you started shows instead.

TOWARD PEOPLE
· Send a meeting to someone and ask them to go with you.
· Let the people you'd call know what that means, with a page written for them.
· Send tonight's review to one person.

ALSO
· Write to us, and rate the app, from You.
· A high-risk-hours alert you can turn on from day one.

Everything you write still stays on your phone and in your phone's own backup. We never receive it.

### 1.1 — 2026-09-28

Every day now has four moves: a pledge, one meeting, one person, and an evening review. Each takes under a minute. Nothing is scored.

MEETINGS, IN THE APP
· Starting soon: online meetings in the next hour, one tap to join.
· Start times for 528 Gamblers Anonymous online meetings, shown in your time zone.
· A page for every meeting: when, where, what to expect the first time, and a place to keep what you heard.
· Log the meetings you go to. Count 90 in 90 if you want to.
· Reminders before the meetings you keep.

YOUR PEOPLE
· Up to five people. Call or text in one tap, with a message you wrote ahead of time.

WHEN IT HITS
· If-then plans for your own triggers, shown when you log an urge and on the panic screen.
· Check the basics, play it forward, and a letter to yourself for the worst hour. All offline.

INNER WORK
· An evening review, and guided writing: what matters, what it has cost, fears, resentments, a year from now, and amends when you're ready.

Everything you write still stays on your phone.
