### 2/5 — Barely works

*2026-08-25, version 3.9.86*

This app fails every single day. It takes multiple attempts to open. The app commonly wont open at all and I’ll miss days of recording which is horrible for consistency… this app is a mess

### 4/5 — Its not worth

*2026-08-21, version 3.9.85*

It’s a scam
They charge me without notifying me

### 4/5 — Good, but could be better

*2026-08-18, version 3.9.82*

Community and most features are great but it doesn’t update Apple Health the way alternative cutback apps do. Ironically it’ll read from AH, but not update. I use AH as my health dashboard, don’t want to use Reframe for that - alcohol is just one aspect of my health journey.

### 1/5 — Deception and robbery

*2026-08-18, version 3.9.84*

The app has sneaky upsell features, leading you to try to buy medication. It promises to easily deliver GLP-1s. Then it actually connects you to a different app after you pay, where you can get stuck in a loop where you don’t get a refund even though you paid because another 3rd party determines you didn’t qualify for the medication.

### 4/5 — Only issue is billing

*2026-08-16, version 3.9.81*

Got charged for subscription even though I had cancelled after the free trial.

### 5/5 — Logical

*2026-08-16, version 3.9.84*

Reframe has taken the guesswork out of drinking and presented everything in a logical manner making it easy to understand what alcohol is doing to your mind body & relationships. I’m 30 days AF & loving it.

### 5/5 — 15 out of 5 stars.

*2026-08-16, version 3.9.82*

This app is incredible in more ways than one. Quality content. Deeply educational. Community driven. Life changing in all the best ways you can imagine and then in some that you can’t. Download it now. Join a meeting. You’ll thank yourself soon.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-08-15, version 3.9.84*

Loving the content and is really helping me out cut drinking. I want to use the text-to-voice feature, the speed is too fast and unnatural, it would be great to have speed control

### 5/5 — Newly sober

*2026-08-15, version 3.9.84*

I’m only 7 days into my journey. I started using reframe and so far I’m really enjoying it. Definitely helps with the science behind it, accountability and motivation. Thanks Reframe!

### 1/5 — Beware of fraudulent charges

*2026-08-14, version 3.9.84*

I downloaded this app awhile back just to see what it was about, although I’m sober and don’t drink anymore.. I then deleted it within 5 minutes. At 2-3am today; my debit card was charged for $99.99 from the app. I did NOT subscribe to any subscription, and I would know if I signed up for one that cost $99.99. Take this how you will.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Useless other than as a drink tracker

*2026-08-24, version 3.9.85*

Very unorganized. There are things to click all over the place and zero guidance on how to use the app effectively. They do however want to sell you drugs and counseling time

### 1/5 — Refused a refund

*2026-08-23, version 3.9.85*

Very frustrated. Signed up for the free-trial which I never even used, and unfortunately forgot to cancel the subscription before I was charged for the ENTIRE year ($119) out of my bank account. In between signing up for the trial I had decided to pursue in person help which has already been a strain on my pockets. I asked Reframe support for a refund and the ONLY response I got was a few days ago “gently advising me” to continue with the subscription because “it would pay off in the long run”. While that may be true, I am an adult that is capable of making my own decisions. I don’t need some random tech support attempting to tell me what’s best for ME. After reiterating that I wanted a refund, my last three messages to Reframe support was ignored. Unfortunately it seems like I am not the only person with an experience similiar to this.

### 1/5 — Freedom?

*2026-08-23, version 3.9.85*

Better free

### 1/5 — Won’t let me cancel

*2026-08-22, version 3.9.84*

I still got charged even after I cancelled my subscription and my account

### 1/5 — Tried then charged

*2026-08-22, version 3.9.84*

I was trying the reframe app for the week to see if it was something I’d be interested in sticking with. I found the app unuseful, and just not for me. I cancelled the free trial/subscription within the week and was still charged the $119 year fee. Customer service was immediately responsive, but now has not returned my email. Bad practice. Pick an app that won’t steal your money.

### 1/5 — Charges

*2026-08-21, version 3.9.84*

After my initial week trial I canceled, I was then offered an additional trial. I accepted and then tried to downgrade before the week was over. Upon doing so, it showed “no subscriptions” and there was no upgrade to cancel. Two days later I was charged $119.99 and I am still dealing with getting this fraudulent charge reversed. The idea of the app is great and I love the free version, but don’t even take the trial unless you are prepared to get stuck with a massive unauthorized charge and no solution

### 1/5 — Fraud scam

*2026-08-21, version 3.9.85*

Do not use this app not even the free trial they will charge you the yearly fee and then when reaching customer service they will ignore your request for refund and refuse to pay you I’ve filed a small claim lawsuit against reframe and anyone else that was charged and not yet refunded should too.

### 1/5 — Recharged.

*2026-08-21, version 3.9.82*

No reminder sent as expected and I wanted to cancel. Been charged a packet and haven’t even completed a month. Added stress- might have a drink.

### 1/5 — Data grab

*2026-08-19, version 3.9.85*

Large personal health / psych data grab before they tell you it’s a paid app. Gross.

### 1/5 — Scam Alert

*2026-08-18, version 3.9.82*

I’ve tried to contact them regarding a incorrect charge. No phone number, no response to multiple emails.

### 5/5 — New user

*2026-08-26, version 3.9.84*

Excellent support for those trying to reduce alcohol dependency…useful tools, insight , tracking mechanism for reducing/elimination. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Game changer!

*2026-08-23, version 3.9.85*

Reframe has given me much more than I thought possible. The tools, science, psychology, support and personalized journey is the difference between wanting to be sober and Being Sober! Grateful

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-08-22, version 3.9.84*

Day 203 off the booze and partly credit to this App as seeing the days add up keeps me motivated

### 5/5 — Really helpful

*2026-08-21, version 3.9.85*

I have a history of drinking excessively from teen years up until the last few years (im 38), ive cut back quite a bit over the past few years but still couldnt shake that one night a week or a few spread out during the week which kept me in a perpetual flat cycle not hung over completely but just not living my best life. This app has changed the game it keeps you accountable, provides really good tools/information and such an amazing supportive community. You feel less alone during this new journey & better equipped to deal with situations as they arise. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Better than the “others”

*2026-08-20, version 3.9.85*

Such a good supplement to individual counseling. Love the specialized advice, content, and community. Worth every penny

### 5/5 — Made all the difference

*2026-08-19, version 3.9.85*

Reframe’s community is amazing. Its coaches are wonderful caring individuals. Don’t skip the meetings. They are the best part I think. After many tries on my own, just cut back or stop drinking Reframe made all the difference. There’s no judgment. You don’t have to declare yourself an alcoholic every time you speak in a meeting, or you can just listen, just a group of people who have been there too. Their approach to helping you understand why you continue to drink even after you wouldn’t like to stop and what’s happening inside body and brain is really valuable.

### 5/5 — On Game Point Tight

*2026-08-18, version 3.9.85*

After a couple of ‘times’ with over drinking, I said to myself we really need to stop this.  That thought stuck in my head for quite a few months.  After the very ‘last time’ this popped up on my feed and I completed some research.  This app is truly amazing.  From the community down to the education you will receive, it is well worth the purchase.  Don’t be like me and have the ‘very last time’ or no time at all. You can do this and you will find the support and access to information, support, and tools you will actually need.

### 5/5 — Best Sobriety Invention Ever!

*2026-08-17, version 3.9.84*

I wish I would have known of this app much sooner. Whether you are trying to go alcohol free or cutback, this is the community and place to be. The neuroscience behind it takes it to the next level. Come one, come all, come as you are this is a judgement free zone!!

### 5/5 — The Support I didn’t know I needed

*2026-08-17, version 3.9.84*

Reframe is so much more than I imagined. I discussed it with my personal trainer & he said that the programme sits so comfortably between AA & sobriety & I agree with that. I didn’t consider myself an alcoholic & had periods of clear control but then under stress I would revert & drink too much. Discovering the science behind why I drink was a massive moment. Setting goals that would be monitored another because I’m very competitive & will always want to better them. Knowing you were part of a much bigger whole gave huge comfort. The replacement therapy directed me logically into healthier options. The blogs resonated & the analysis was completely on point. I have already recommended the program to two friends because it has made such a difference in my life & left me feeling in control in the moment of now. Amazing.

### 5/5 — Life Changer

*2026-08-16, version 3.9.84*

This app has been a life changer for me. It is there with me everyday as another tool that keeps me on the path. It has answered the many questions about how alcohol has changed my brain and my body making the “symptoms” make sense. Thank you and I recommend Reframe for anyone who wants to change your life and your relationship with alcohol.
