About

DrinkDays

Features
Read full description

DrinkDays keeps a day-by-day log of whether you drank and how much. On the record screen you tap "Drank" or "Didn't drink" for today, or step back to fill in an earlier day. You can add the amount in glasses or bottles and a short note, and your current sober streak sits at the top. The calendar marks drinking days and sober days in different colors for each month. Tap a date to see or edit that day's entry. The analysis screen counts drinking days by week, month and year, and shows your sober rate, your longest sober streak, the weekday you drink most and a weekday pattern chart. It also estimates what you spent from your own bottle price and compares it with the previous period. In settings you pick one of six currencies (KRW, USD, JPY, CNY, EUR, BRL), set the bottle price and how many glasses make a bottle, and export every record as a CSV table to Mail, Notes or Files. Available in nine languages: English, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, German, French, Spanish and Portuguese.
