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.
Sober October Challenge

Sober October is a fun way to insert a little mindfulness into your daily routine. We’ve chosen four simple things to focus on: drinking less, and sleeping, reading, and exercising more. That’s it. We added a basic point system, a leaderboard, and just enough competition to gamify the whole thing. Join an existing challenge or start your own. Do it with friends for some added accountability, or create a challenge just for yourself. It’s an honor system. Log your day, earn your points, and try to get one day right at a time. Stack a few good days together and you might find yourself building some momentum. Along the way, you can track your progress, climb the leaderboard, chase Perfect Days, compete for discipline trophies, share photos and comments, and keep up with everyone else in your challenge. The goal isn’t necessarily to become a completely different person for one month. Maybe you just prove to yourself that you CAN do it. Maybe a few healthier habits stick around after October. And despite the name, nobody says you have to wait until October. Sober October. Sober November. Random-three-weeks-in-March. We’re not picky.
