DrinkLedger is a drink logger, nothing more and nothing less. Log what you drink in two taps, confirm the days you didn't drink, and see honest statistics about your consumption. No coaching program, no lectures, no account. Your data never leaves your phone. There is no server, no login, and no ad network. Everything is stored on your device, and you can export your complete history as CSV or JSON at any time, for free. LOG QUICKLY - Personal presets: your usual beer or wine is two taps - Custom drinks with volume and alcohol percentage - Log for past days, edit or delete any entry - Confirm alcohol-free days explicitly. Days you didn't track are never silently counted as zero, so your statistics stay honest. HONEST STATISTICS - Grams of pure alcohol as the base unit, shown as WHO standard drinks, US drinks, UK units, or Austrian Standardglas - Color bands you configure yourself show how each day compares to your own limits - Today, the current week, and your confirmed dry days are always free DRINKLEDGER PRO (one-time purchase) - Rolling 7-day, 30-day, and all-time averages - Daily and weekly trend charts - Apple Health sync, write-only: the app never reads your health data - Pay once, keep it forever. No subscription. WHAT DRINKLEDGER DOESN'T DO No goals that nag you. No social feed. No streaks that reward drinking. No ads, no analytics, no data collection of any kind. If you want a coach, there are other apps; if you want a clear, private record of what you actually drink, this is it. Made by one person in Austria who wanted exactly this app and couldn't find it.
