*2025-08-19, version 2.5.1*

Grateful for the work taking recovery from the rooms and help me through the other 23 hours I’m not in a meeting. It’s not a substitute for my program but just another modern tool in my toolbox. Helpful and easy site to navigate.

### 1/5 — Didn’t like

*2026-06-06, version 2.5.2*

I hope this cancels as I tried to cancel it. Just wasn’t feeling it. Hardly anyone on that app.

### 1/5 — First app command tap A star

*2026-02-16, version 2.5.2*

Tapping only one star wasnt difficult thanks to the app creators easy to use design. 5 stars!

### 1/5 — extra books besides big book

*2025-03-23, version 2.4.7*

says it has the extra books but only shows the big book. i downloaded it to look at as bill sees it but the book was not present. dont like it dont trust it. i’ll just keep my other app of AA. thanks

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2025-03-14, version 2.4.7*

I couldn't even log in.  4 times I tried putting in my password and it said the passwords don't match.  Can't see what I'm typing.  So I gave up after 4 times.   What a shame.

### 1/5 — Password

*2024-10-12, version 2.4.5*

It won’t let me put in a password

### 1/5 — Self serving

*2024-08-27, version 2.4.4*

Your site wants info on me when the program is to be anonymous.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2024-08-26, version 2.4.4*

App doesn’t work

### 1/5 — What happened

*2024-07-28, version 2.4.0*

I have used this app for years and never have had to log into until the last update. This is an anonymous program, now you need an email and want to track us across our other apps? 
If I could give this app a zero I would. Who ever runs this app took a very good tool from God and now is run by the Devil!

### 1/5 — Change of layout

*2023-12-25, version 2.2.30*

Having to swipe side to side is terrible to use.
I had to download another Big Book app to ready my big book now. 
 Now to delete this app.

### 1/5 — Sloppy unresponsive interface

*2019-11-02, version 1.8.5*

The app does not allow me to sign up. It won’t let me enter my email. It returns to its splash (first) page instead. I can enter my sobriety date but it says, “enter a valid date” when I already have. The text on the sign up page is overwritten on top of itself such that I can’t completely see each line of text clearly. The pages are truncated, too. I hope these can be fixed. It looks like a great app, if only...

*2026-04-02, version 2.5.2*

Easy does it!!!

### 5/5 — Hope

*2026-03-26, version 2.5.2*

Newly accepted that I’m an alcoholic and downloaded this app as my first step in the direction of sobriety. It’s completely free, no annoying pop up ads, doesn’t have any schema or seem to have ulterior motives other than to provide you with resources to strengthen you, educate you, and bring you hope in a community of other people. It’s wonderful.

### 5/5 — Great way to keep track of my days

*2026-03-23, version 2.5.2*

I use this as resources to help others at meetings

### 5/5 — Mr.Tim Arambula

*2026-02-28, version 2.5.2*

Actually a fare App highly recommend if you are in need of a sober companion and just need to reiterate the Big Book in your life it comes at a FREE download and is definitely worth having in your Apps. I am sober today and will remain so, also another app is Sober Time keep track of addiction milestones!
