ClearDay is a calm, private sobriety and recovery tracker for changing one habit - or several at the same time. Track alcohol-free days, quit smoking or vaping, monitor recovery from weed or other substances, or change habits involving gambling, porn, gaming, sex, or compulsive scrolling. Each recovery journey has its own start date, progress counter, milestones, stats, and optional savings tracking. Daily check-ins and private reflections help you understand your overall recovery without pressure, guilt, or judgment. TRACK MULTIPLE RECOVERY JOURNEYS Recovery is rarely one-size-fits-all. ClearDay lets you: • Track multiple recovery journeys at once • Give each journey its own start date and timeline • Choose a primary journey for your home screen • Switch between journeys to view individual progress • Reorder, edit, archive, or restart journeys • Track money saved for supported journeys DAILY RECOVERY TOOLS • Check in with your mood, cravings, and personal notes • Write private reflections with titles and timestamps • See days sober, streaks, milestones, and simple stats • Celebrate and share progress when you choose • Reset or restart without penalties or shame A PRIVATE SOBRIETY TRACKER ClearDay stores your recovery data locally on your device. • No account required • No cloud sync • No analytics • No data collection What you write stays with you. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE Recovery is not always linear. Missing a check-in or starting again does not erase the progress you have made. Whether you are trying to quit drinking, build an alcohol-free lifestyle, stay smoke-free, or change another substance use or compulsive habit, ClearDay helps you remain aware and consistent - one day at a time. ClearDay is not a medical app and does not replace professional care, treatment, or support. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

SoberStack is a sobriety tracker built for recovery, not generic habit tracking. Track your days sober, log urges in seconds, and learn what actually triggers your relapses. When an urge hits, capture the intensity, emotion, and situation. Over time, your urge journal reveals patterns so you can get ahead of them. HOW IT WORKS • Create a streak for whatever you're quitting (alcohol, vaping/nicotine, porn, or other compulsive habits) • Watch your sober day counter and contribution graph fill in • Log urges with one tap: rate intensity, pick an emotion, note the trigger • Choose a coping activity when you need it (walk, call a friend, journal, breathe) • Review your urge journal to spot patterns • Set personal goals to remember why you started • View your full streak history: every attempt counts as progress ALSO BUILD POSITIVE HABITS Recovery isn't just about what you cut out. Start a streak for something you want to add — workout, meditation, reading, journaling — and tap once a day to mark it complete. Same contribution graph, same momentum, just pointed forward. BUILT FOR YOU No social feeds, no public profiles, no forced sharing. SoberStack keeps your recovery journey yours. WHY SOBERSTACK Most habit trackers don't account for urges, relapses, or the emotional side of quitting. SoberStack does — and it handles the things you're picking up too. Whether you're on day 1 or day 500, SoberStack helps you stay accountable, understand your triggers, and keep going. Start your first streak today.
