I’ll literally pay for the app if it means there's no ads ### 3/5 — Great app *2026-05-25, version 1.7* Love this app really easy to use, quick to see your count. But don’t like the addition of adds, it’s frustrating. ### 4/5 — Добавьте пожалуйста когда происходят срывы *2026-04-27* Добавьте пожалуйста когда происходят срывы. И больше текста о улучшении здоровья когда не пьешь. Бывают же мероприятия где пьют, свадьбы и тд. Чтобы была иконка что в этот день сорвался. Чтобы приложение учитывало это ### 3/5 — Ads! *2026-04-07, version 1.7* Great app but having to close it to get rid of an absurd amount of ads is absolutely ridiculous. Probably a deal breaker for most people ### 3/5 — Exagera nos ads *2026-04-01* Para um aplicativo que supostamente quer fazer você abandonar um vício, esse exagera nas propagandas a ponto de ser insuportável usar ate para ver suas melhorias e avanços ### 4/5 — Adds *2026-03-09, version 1.7* Too many adds ### 4/5 — Good but app has issues *2026-01-19, version 1.7* I like this app but some of the percentages are off. It’ll say I’m 60% of the way to a milestone that I’m actually 98% of the way too. App has weird glitches like that quite frequently ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2026-01-12, version 1.7* Unusable due to immediate ads for trash games that you can’t close. Two within five seconds of opening the app. ### 4/5 — Unterstützend *2026-01-06* Schöne APP, aber die Schriftgröße sollte veränderbar sein. Täglich neue Hinweise wie bei „Rauchfrei Pro“, die mir vor 13 Jahren geholfen haben, rauchfrei zu werden und zu bleiben, wäre noch klasse. Ansonsten sind die wichtigsten Tools da. ### 1/5 — Not usable *2026-01-04, version 1.7* I used this app in the past and just redownloaded it. You can’t do anything within the app without another ad popping up. Every time you try to move around in the app to look at new information you have to go through another ad. Every time! Even to just go to settings to adjust your information. I understand a few ads, but this is over the top bad, and it destroys the app’s purpose. ### 1/5 — Literally an uncloseable ad for pressing any button *2026-01-01, version 1.7* App is an absolute blight to use. Never in my LIFE have I gotten an ad that I CANNOT close for pressing the settings button. What a waste of space on the internet, devs should be absolutely ashamed ### 3/5 — Please get rid of the ads!!! *2025-12-09, version 1.7* On December 25, 2025 I will be four years sober. I am proud of myself. I was able to do it cold turkey, but for somebody who may have trouble quitting, putting ads on an app could discourage them and caused them to drink. I honestly think in an app that is used for sobriety. It should be nice and clean and with NO ADS. I think at the end of the day the ads on your app can cause someone to relapse. ### 2/5 — Constant Ads *2025-11-11, version 1.7* I couldn’t even get to anything good because anything I clicked on, there was a new game add, and it took so long to be able to leave the ad. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-17, version 1.7* Too many ads to access any function of the ap. Even if you watch the ads you have to force close to get back and then you are met with a new ad-some which are alcohol focused which is off putting ### 1/5 — JJ *2026-07-11, version 1.7* downloaded the app but then when I asked for assistance and relapse help, I ran into a pay wall ### 1/5 — Used to be great, now it’s nothing but ads. Any click prompts an ad it’s excessive for any app. *2026-07-02, version 1.7* It also will give you notifications of 12 hours, despite you having 955 days in addition to those 12 hours. Could be disheartening to someone newly sober. It provides some decent health data hence the additional star, but having to wait through a game or app ad for one minute to see anything. And then wait another minute for another long ad if you click an item for more detail. It’s basically not a functional app unless you’re willing to pay. I’m biased though, I was using it years ago before it turned into spam. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-07-01, version 1.7* App is useful, ads are unbearable. ### 1/5 — Unskippable Ads for Gambling on an app for addicts ?? *2026-05-05, version 1.7* Horrible- can’t even use the app because of the ads. Oh well. ### 1/5 — Scammy ads now *2026-05-05, version 1.7* I get ads saying I am being hacked or my account is hacked. Just uninstall as it facilitates malicious agents now. ### 1/5 — Il faut pouvoir marquer sa consommation *2026-03-13* J ai mentionné diminuer ma consommation on ne peut marquer la consommation que L on as sans faire une remise à zéro ### 1/5 — Addicting Game Ad Platform *2026-02-18, version 1.7* This is truly sick that you are running highly additive, unavoidable game ads on an app for people with addiction issues. Shame on you. ### 1/5 — Worthless because of ads *2026-02-12, version 1.7* So many ads you can’t actually do anything. Why? There’s no option to close out of the ads either so I’m just staring at a screen waiting for it to change and it won’t. Worthless ### 1/5 — This app is a trigger!! *2026-01-13, version 1.7* This app will cause u to drink bc of the ads and not able to get pass them!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simples e fácil de usar *2026-08-05* Estou gostando mas não eh 100% grátis… tem opções pagas ### 5/5 — The app I always needed *2026-07-06, version 1.7* This is exactly what I’ve been looking for since I’ve been trying apps. The statistics are so satisfying in making you feel like you’re actually making progress which makes all the difference for me. The app is wildly simple but completely changed my feelings and efforts quickly with minimal effort. I just bought the pro version and wanted to say, absolutely try this app, I hope it helps everyone as much as it already has me. ### 5/5 — Stephen *2026-06-07, version 1.7* Great app 🙂 ### 5/5 — Кисломолочка, Квас *2026-05-20* Считается ли за выпивку если опьянеть от кваса немного или от айрана ? ### 5/5 — Génial *2026-01-15* Je commence depuis 15 jours et le simple fait de faire une application gratuite pour accompagner l’arrêt de l’alcool mérite 5 étoiles ! Merci beaucoup ! ### 5/5 — Does it’s job *2025-11-26* I like that it’s free and does its job. What else could you ask for? ### 5/5 — It worked for me *2025-09-15, version 1.7* I’ve now been alcohol free for over three years. This app really helped me out and I still come back to it to check my stats. I’ve recommended it to tons of people. ### 5/5 — La meilleure ! *2025-07-04* C’est vraiment la meilleure des applications pour arrêter de boire ! Elle est complète et très stimulante, j’ai essayé les autres mais c’est de loin celle que je préfère ! Merci pour votre travail ! ### 5/5 — Top *2025-01-18* J’adore cette application. Elle est très facile à utiliser et les pubs ne me gênent pas, comme dans d’autres applis où ça peut être vraiment chiant. Cette appli m’a carrément aidée je la recommande complètement. Je suis d’ailleurs embêtée parce que j’aimerai arrêter d’utiliser un smartphone mais je n’ai pas envie de me passer de cette application. ### 5/5 — Don’t bother *2024-09-23, version 1.7* I used to love this app but now there’s ads blocking me from using the app. It’s totally unusable ! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
