More than a log — it’s your accountability partner. Track what, when, and how much you drink. Non-judgemental with full privacy (data is on your device only). DrinkControl helps you stay accountable and notice patterns in your drinking habits. Whether you're trying to cut back, stick to certain days, or simply stay more mindful, this app keeps you on track. “This app helped me reduce my drinking by simply making me aware.” We think and drink in glasses, cans and bottles — not alcohol units. But not all beers, wines, or cocktails contain the same amount of alcohol. DrinkControl takes the guesswork out of the equation by converting every drink into standard alcohol units / grams of pure alcohol, based on real guidelines from health institutions. “Really opens your eyes when you see how many units are in a few ‘innocent’ drinks.” Alcohol doesn’t just affect your liver — it affects your waistline and wallet too. Drinks are full of empty (without any nutritional value) calories. DrinkControl helps you stay aware of the amount of calories in your drinks, making it easier to manage your weight, cut down for health reasons, or save money. “This app helped me lose weight and drink less at the same time.” Features: - Easily and quickly track your drinks and alcohol expenses - Track and see your drinking history in calendar - Stay within low-risk/moderate alcohol limits - Mark your dry/sober days and streaks - Charts, trend-line and statistics on alcohol/calories consumed, money spent on drinks - Sync alcohol units (standard drinks) and alcohol calories with Apple Health - Get your personal infographic on drinks consumed Premium features include: - Add DrinkControl widgets for your homescreen - Set and customize drink tracking reminders/notifications - Get statistics and charts for previous months/weeks, quarters or years - Look back in the history, create an infographic for full month or year - Customize with your favourite types of drinks and serving sizes - Export data to .csv file for use in Excel/Numbers - Back up your data to iCloud or Dropbox - Select one of many alternate app icons Terms, Conditions and Privacy: https://drinkcontrolapp.com/privacy

The gag reflex you think you're stuck with? You can train it away. Thousands of women already have — quietly, privately, from home. ReflexFlow is the first app built to do one thing: help you lose your gag reflex for good. No clinic. No embarrassing conversations. No willpower. Just seven calm minutes a day, headphones in, and a method that actually works. BACKED BY REAL SCIENCE This isn't a gimmick. ReflexFlow is built on the exact techniques clinical researchers use to retrain the gag reflex — the same approach that helped 87.5% of people in published studies stop gagging completely. We combined three proven methods into one guided daily session: - Breathwork proven to switch your body out of "panic" and into calm — the long, slow exhale science shows shifts your nervous system in seconds. - Alexander Technique release — the clinically studied method that stops your jaw, tongue and throat from bracing. - Gradual, guided contact that moves your limit further every single session. Together they do what nothing else can: they raise your body's threshold of safety — the exact point where your gag reflex decides to fire. Every session pushes that threshold higher, until what used to trigger you simply doesn't anymore. You're not numbing yourself for one night — you're permanently raising where your safe zone ends, and training your body to keep it there. FEEL IT WORK ON DAY ONE Most women notice a difference in their very first session — your edge, already moved, in five minutes. From there, an 8-level programme takes you from your first nervous breath to total, effortless control. WHAT YOU GET - A daily guided audio session — warm, calm, never clinical - An 8-level programme engineered to move your limit fast - Streaks, levels and a comfort tracker that prove your progress back to you - Real, in-the-moment techniques for when it counts most - A daily practice that keeps your results locked in for life - A private science library so you understand exactly why it works COMPLETELY PRIVATE No account.
