Slipped before and felt like you were back at zero? That's the part Reroot fixes. Reroot is a quit tracker for drinking, vaping, smoking, weed, porn, gambling, sugar — whatever you're done with. When you slip, your streak resets but your roots don't. Every sober day you've ever earned stays counted. Because recovery isn't a straight line, and your tracker shouldn't pretend it is. Built by someone who was tired of starting over from zero. YOUR ROOTS STAY Most apps wipe your progress the second you slip. Reroot keeps your cumulative days forever. A bad night doesn't erase a good month. WATCH IT GROW Your progress is a living tree — seed to old growth — that grows as your roots deepen. Every milestone becomes a metallic medal you keep for good, through every slip. RIDE THE WAVE Craving hits? Tap one button: guided breathing, a 5-minute ride-out timer, and a reminder of everything you're protecting. Cravings pass. This helps you outlast them. SEE THE PROGRESS · Live day + time counter · Calendar heatmap & streak history · Money saved, adding up daily · "Your body is healing" timeline, specific to your habit · Slip-pattern insights — learn what trips you up TRACK MORE THAN ONE Quit several things at once. One tree per habit, all growing together. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No sign-up. No tracking. Everything stays on your phone. Your recovery is nobody's business but yours. FREE · One habit, full counter, milestones, basic insight — forever PRO (Monthly or Lifetime) · Unlimited habits · Full analytics & slip patterns · Every theme & every medal · 3-day free trial, then $2.99/month or $9.99 once Your roots are still there. Start growing. Reroot is a self-guided wellness tool, not medical care. If you're in crisis, call or text 988 (US) or your local emergency line.
