Need to update links and make sure they go somewhere. ### 1/5 — NOT FREE! *2024-05-18, version 1.4.2* Doesn’t let you know the price until after it takes your info!!! 11.99 per month!! I DON’T THINK SO! ### 1/5 — Rubbish now *2024-04-04, version 1.4.2* Won’t let me in unless I sign up for a free trial!! Been with them so long. Money always takes over! ### 1/5 — Scam! *2024-04-03, version 1.4.2* This is not a free app, and you don’t find out until you give them your personal information. ### 1/5 — "FREE" *2024-03-29, version 1.4.2* Ha! I hate apps that allow a free download then force you to purchase a membership to use it. Then provides errors when you try to delete your account. What a joke. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2024-03-23, version 1.4.2* This was a convenient app to pop into every now and then to see how many days sober I was, but went to check today to find it now subscription based with a free trial making the claim that it unlocks all the features, but there is no option to say no I’ll just use the basic free features will be deleting the app and looking for something free, charging £13 pound a month just to keep track of something you can work out with a calendar and a calculator it is scandalous, especially when being used by people who are likely to be in a vulnerable place ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2024-03-19, version 1.4.2* I’ve been using this app for over 2 years and now I’m being forced to “subscribe” to keep track of my sobriety days. Lame. Looking for a new app right now and deleting this one. ### 2/5 — Very disappointed *2024-03-14* Tomorrow is 3 years sober for me and I went to log into the app and it suddenly wants me to pay to see my clean time! I’ve been using this app for over a year and recommended it to others because it was free. Now I’m deleting the app because I can’t afford to pay just to see how long I’ve been sober. I’m very disappointed ### 1/5 — Unfortunately no longer available for free *2024-03-13, version 1.4.2* I was using this app for years then they took away the free version 🫤 ### 1/5 — Nice until they decided to charge *2024-02-28* I was using this to help track my sober days. It came with a free base plan where I could track my days and have access to certain resources. I’ve had this for over 3-4 months and suddenly when I logged in it decided I needed to sign up for a subscription. This is unfortunate as I do not need any of the other services I was just trying to track the days. I’ve uninstalled and moved on to something different now. ### 1/5 — Not free anymore *2024-02-23, version 1.4.2* I’m deeply disappointed to see that the sober counter, which used to be free, is now behind a paywall. I had used the free sober tracker for almost 2 years. I’ll miss it. ### 2/5 — No longer free! *2024-02-21, version 1.4.2* I was able to track my progress for free. I had the paid version for awhile, but now it’s wanting me to pay 11.99 to even see how many days I’ve been sober. So weak!! ### 1/5 — Took away the free version! *2024-02-20, version 1.4.2* Sad you can’t offer a free version just so people can track the days at least ### 1/5 — What Happened?! *2024-02-16, version 1.4.0* I have been using this app for years now. To my surprise I went to look at my sober time and now it wants a subscription fee so I can’t even see my days sober anymore. Would not recommend anymore. ### 1/5 — WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THE APP??? *2024-02-15, version 1.4.0* Hi I am 568 days sober and I love the tracker. I use the free tracker but this morning when I logged in it sent me to a free trial and I couldn’t get to the tracker. What’s happened? ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2024-02-06* Confusing and frustrating. I tried to sign up for membership and it took the second app to figure it out since it doesn’t tell you how In the first app. Then it keeps glitching and signing me Out to make me redo the “purchase” over and over to keep signing me out. I couldn’t even access anything even when it said I was already subscribed. ### 3/5 — Unable to reset password on app *2023-09-07, version 1.3.1* I was logged out of the app and couldn’t recall my password. I keep getting an error message when I try to reset my password. The app is amazing and so helpful in my journey but I have now been unable to access my account for a week now due to this error with the password reset link. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad app, won’t let you delete account *2025-04-08, version 1.4.4* Won’t let you delete your account once signed up as comes up with ‘error’. The app is actually confusing, not well set out at all and I didn’t find anything helpful that they offered ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2024-10-15* This app hasn’t worked properly, it’s very glitchy, and I tried to delete my account and it continuously says error and try again later. I’m concerned about my information, and there’s no support contact. **Developer response:** You can reach our customer service at hello@yoursoberbuddy.com . If you cannot delete on your end we can do it manually. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-10-08, version 1.4.3* I’ve been trying for two days to download this app and it will not load. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled a dozen times. I wanted to try it because it looks cute but I’m not wasting anymore time on it. ### 1/5 — Absolute Scam *2024-09-13, version 1.4.2* I have been using this app for quite a while now but after updating it and logging in, it’s now only giving a 3 day free trial followed by $11.99 PER MONTH. This app has always been extremely barebones, so to request 12$ a month for a basic days tracker is insane. I’m deleting the app and won’t be coming back, even if the subscription goes away. This app is 100% a scam that feeds on people who are just looking to track their sobriety ### 1/5 — Not free *2024-08-28, version 1.4.2* Really guys lol you going to say it’s free but when I try and signup there’s no continue with free account only the paid membership. You can’t use this app unless you signed up for the $100 account. Wish I could of used it but now I’m not. Fix your app! ### 1/5 — This used to be nice…now subscription is needed *2024-07-21, version 1.4.2* I went to sign on to track my sobriety which is now 2.5 years, and come to find out you now have to pay an $11.99 subscription for the app. I’m sorry but while this app is fun it’s not work 12 dollars a month. Lemme tell you why: -you can find any basic day tracker app that is free. -the daily “challenges” are semi-childish such as ‘tell a friend you’re thinking about them’ or ‘find 5 things that made you smile today’. -never tried any of their virtual events so can’t attest to them. I will say if someone was counting on this app to maintain motivation…a sudden subscription block could be enough to cause relapse. Which is a shame. I encourage anyone needing support to look online and find a local Celebrate Recovery in your area. C.R. Has helped me in ways this app just can’t. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2024-07-03, version 1.4.2* Advertised as free but charges after 3 days. False advertisement ### 1/5 — I don’t want to pay *2024-06-24* How do I use without paying ### 1/5 — Scam *2024-05-30, version 1.4.2* Says free. Been using it as a tracker for years now it wants a subscription. Most people I’ve encountered that are trying to change their lives don’t have a ton of spare money. They are just praying on people in their time of need. ### 1/5 — Used to be free *2024-05-28, version 1.4.2* I used this years ago, decided to try again to stay sober but now we need subscription… Looking for diff app now. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — App *2024-10-15, version 1.4.3* I love this app it’s free and it helps me keep track ### 5/5 — Highly recommend, amazing customer service as well *2024-04-18, version 1.4.2* I’ve been using this app for the past 3 months and it has helped immensely with my sobriety journey. When the app glitched, I contacted customer service, and Chris was prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. ### 5/5 — Free Trial *2024-03-06* Not sure what the deal is. I live this app and have used before, but now it will not allow me to access without doing the free trial. I don’t want to sign up for and because of that I can’t use it. It keeps promoting me to sign up every time I login and can’t get to my check in. Very annoying ### 5/5 — It’s been great having you around *2023-09-05* I like having sober buddy checking up on me ### 5/5 — Helps to celebrate daily wins *2023-07-09* First of all this app I think is really best if you’re actually aiming to stop - not just reduce or thinking about it. I LOVE answering YES to the question whether I’ve remained sober and seeing Buddy have a celebration. The Challenges truly help more than I ever could imagine. They are “simple” But make a huge difference. And you can turn down a challenge if it doesn’t fit and it will give you something else. I love the happy fun interface. And whether you answer “bad” “okay” or “great” to how you’re feeling it has a nice answer to help me through and make the mountain feel smaller. ### 5/5 — SoberBuddy if proving to be life changing! *2023-02-27, version 1.3.1* Why, you may ask? Well, they say the opposite of addiction is a connection, and I full-heartedly agree. I have been on the SoberBuddy app for just a few days, and already I feel a renewed strength. I highly recommend this app for anyone at any stage of recovery with any amount of sober time! ### 5/5 — Doing good *2023-02-22, version 1.3.1* Love this app. It helps me keep track ### 5/5 — Helped me stay sober *2023-01-31* I really love this app. It helped me so much for the first few months getting sober from alcohol and marijuana. **Developer response:** So glad it helped! ### 5/5 — Highly, highly recommend. *2023-01-24* After a relapse 3 years into recovery, I was desperately looking for something, anything that would help get me past it. I found Sober Buddy and tried the 30 days free, sure I would cancel to save myself $100. No way will I cancel, in fact, I’m shocked it only costs what it does. This app has made REAL support available at an extremely affordable price. I just attended my first virtual group today through the app and was so pleased I told all my friends in recovery about it. ***IF YOU ARE IN EARLY RECOVERY FROM ANY KIND OF SUBSTANCE GET THIS APP*** **Developer response:** So happy you found us Nicole! ### 5/5 — Sober Buddy *2022-09-25* Sobriety is hard with a world full of drugs; some days are easier than the others! I think the hardest part of it all are the looks you get & the judgement they pass that seems to linger like a dark cloud! Staring to see if your high or if today you chose to stay sober! Sober buddy is simple helps keep up with the days **Developer response:** We're so glad you're liking the app baffled2014!
