LESS - Alcohol Tracker Less is a simple, elegant, intuitive tool to help people who drink alcohol do so more mindfully, and make space for more drink-free days. From the creators of ZERO, the top rated fasting app, Less makes it easy to track your alcohol intake so you can stay aware of how much you drink and when. It’s a science-based approach to taking control of your consumption. As the saying goes, “What gets measured gets managed.” This app is a judgment-free zone. It’s designed to help anyone who wants to moderate alcohol consumption, no matter what the reason. Whether you’re trying to sail through social situations without overdoing it, overwhelmed by the ocean of work functions involving alcohol, or seeking to chart a course toward better health, Less is your companion to navigate these stormy waters. **This is v1 of “the drinking buddy that helps you drink less.” We’re rapidly iterating and improving, so we welcome feedback to help make Less as upbeat, engaging, and helpful as possible.** MEET LES AND LESLIE Choose to experience the journey toward mindful consumption as either Les or Leslie. You’re the captain of this ship, and every decision is yours. As you log drinks, your daily intake affects the weather while your weekly intake affects your speed. Stay under your daily limit to keep the skies sunny. Stay under your weekly limit to keep the wind at your back. If you exceed your limits, you’ll run into stormy weather and slow your progress. TRACK YOUR JOURNEY SET LIMITS. Our algorithm will recommend a weekly limit, but you can customize that limit up or down to work at your own pace. LOG DRINKS WITH A TAP. Quickly and easily log each drink from the homescreen, or use the widget to add drinks without opening the app for a more discrete tracking experience. BUILD STREAKS. Less tracks how many drink-free days you rack up in a row so you can visualize your progress. REVIEW YOUR WEEK. See when you drank and how much. Use this information to inform your choices moving forward. REVIEW YOUR MONTH. The calendar view lets you see your entire consumption history so you can see the big picture of your alcohol intake.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Less at none against Reframe's 13. Less also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). Reframe's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (45K vs 964). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Reframe sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Less asks for nothing beyond the download.
Reframe holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reframe has 45K ratings behind it against 964, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Less's written reviews are positive against 62% of Reframe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Less ships an update fortnightly, Reframe every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
