### 4/5 — Why can't I buddy request?

*2025-02-06, version 2.1*

I'm new to this and literally have tried on multiple phones to try to use the "send buddy request" button and nothing! So frustrating because I'm actually becoming friends with people but I can't add them as a friend. It'd be nice if that could start working. 

Thank you!

### 5/5 — I’m trying

*2024-12-16, version 2.1*

*2024-12-07, version 2.1*

Awesome app great bunch of people

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-11-14, version 2.1*

A lot of thought was put into this app. It really supports you in having a more fulfilling life.

### 4/5 — Love this app.

*2024-11-14, version 2.1*

5/5 stars, just needs a progress widget similar to the day tracking widget available on the quit vaping app made by same app developer!!

### 5/5 — Шурко

*2024-11-12*

Отличный инструмент для контроля трезвости. Статистика мотивирует не срываться. Единственное, что хотелось бы это добавить больше напоминаний и советов по борьбе с тягой.

### 5/5 — Simple to use

*2024-10-09, version 2.1*

Shows encouraging health benefits to keep you motivated

### 5/5 — Peter gehdu

*2024-06-09, version 2.1*

5th day no alcohol. Something like this, makes all the difference.

### 4/5 — So far so good!

*2024-04-14, version 2.1*

I really loved the quit vaping app and it’s helped me be consistent. The best part was the widget. Why doesn’t quit drinking have one??

### 5/5 — Quitting drinking

*2024-03-21, version 2.1*

I like this app because u actually still get goal coins and there’s a community of people who understand and don’t judge

### 5/5 — Good app

*2023-10-10, version 2.0.1*

App has done a great job in motivating me and keeping track of some cool stats.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Predatory.

*2026-05-05, version 2.5*

They ask for a large sum of money after learning that you may be at rock bottom. They don’t want to help, they want to prey on us.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-04-18, version 2.4*

App is not free

### 1/5 — There is no free version

*2026-02-02, version 2.4*

They need to be upfront before you answer personal questions. They should just say upfront the cost. There is no free version. And a free trial that comes with automatic payment afterwards of just a few days is a trick

### 1/5 — Made it worse

*2024-11-05, version 2.1*

Made it harder for me to quit by constantly reminding me and sending me notifications. The app ended up being a massive trigger and I was struggling more with the app then I had been without it

### 1/5 — Spam

*2023-10-06, version 2.0.1*

You ask me for a review 4 times whilst using the app. It’s annoying, so 1 star

### 1/5 — Can’t quit the app once your in

*2023-04-13, version 2.0.1*

I don’t know how to stop paying for this app. There is no where to unsubscribe. It is not for me.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-11-17, version 2.0.1*

I want a refund and conveniently there is no way to get ahold of anyone.  Also, never heard anything from my quit coach.  Scam

### 2/5 — Too US Centric

*2021-12-12, version 2.0.1*

It wouldn’t kill you to add multi-currency and metric measurements.

### 3/5 — Please Update To Add Widget and Comments

*2025-04-09, version 2.2*

I cannot add this app as a widget to my Home Screen like I can the quit vaping app. 

Please update to allow us to edit our comments.

Please make the commenting easier to understand by making threads below each comment when people reply to a specific comment, instead of just @username in the comments.

### 3/5 — We Need A Widget!

*2023-10-27*

I love this app, and the Quit Smoking app, which I have had for almost 3 years, and it has helped me document my journey and stay strong in my decisions. 
I love the widget on my phone for the Quit Smoking app, and I would love to have a widget for this app as well, but there isn't an option to create a widget for Quit Drinking. 

Please add the widget feature! :)

### 5/5 — Perfect app to track

*2026-07-31, version 2.5*

I check it everyday to see how long it’s been since my last drink and it motivates me to keep going.

### 5/5 — Best resource for quitting drinking

*2026-06-08, version 2.5*

I suffered with severe alcoholism for almost a decade and found this app the 2nd time I tried to quit. I love that it does so much more than just track your sobriety count. It gives you information on ways your body and health is healing every day you’re alcohol free. It gives you a section to journal, track cravings, calming exercises, and even a great social community to post and interact with people who are going through the same thing as you. I feel really grateful to have found this app!

### 5/5 — Best app for quit drinking

*2026-01-31, version 2.4*

I love this app has everything you need all the tools and resources top notch app. You guys gave me resources for free. Love that it’s a free app to track your progress. Haven’t seen an app as good as this one. Usually don’t reviews on apps but this app was so good I just had to!

### 5/5 — Enjoyable

*2025-10-14, version 2.3.1*

I really like this app , it offer support and also offers a cut down limit , not just a fully quit . It quite easy to use and I like it marks every second you don’t drink . I would give this a 5 stars for how easy it is to use and how much I enjoy it .

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2025-07-28, version 2.3.1*

Best app for no drinking I have ever seen by far!

### 5/5 — Widget

*2025-06-08, version 2.3.1*

Great app please add the widget.

### 5/5 — simple and fair

*2025-04-17, version 2.2*

without pay, the app does what you would expect it to do; count the time of your sobriety.

surprisingly this is a mot more than what other apps of the same nature will do without pay. 
there’s a couple more features that could probably help those who want more stats and encouragement to keep going. i don’t know much about those features since i just wanted the basic timer

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-02-20, version 2.1*

Very motivating!

### 5/5 — Nice tool to encourage yourself

*2025-01-22, version 2.1*

This is the second time using this app. The first time I’ve only did it for fun and detox.

But this time I’m doing it for a change in life and it truely helps me to remind myself of what I want and where I’m going.

Btw, I’m not paying anything for the use of the app. There is a section where you opt to pay but in my case I’m happy with the free version. Maybe in the future I’ll join.

### 5/5 — Best free app

*2025-01-02, version 2.1*

Best free app around..easy to set up and keep track of everything..loads of extra features and things you can pay to upgrade for..
