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?

Resist counts the cravings you survive, not the days you go without. One bad night doesn't erase a month of work. Most quit apps put a streak on the home screen. Relapse once and it drops to zero, as if the weeks before it never happened. Resist keeps a different number: every craving you sat through and came out the other side of. That number never resets — not for a relapse, not for anything. Use it to step away from smoking, drinking, or gambling. When a craving hits, you open the app and breathe through it with your own reasons in front of you. Everything you log stays on your iPhone. HOW IT WORKS Pick what you're stepping away from smoking, alcohol, or gambling and when you stopped. When a craving arrives, tap "I'm having a craving." Breathe through a guided session while the timer runs and your own reason is quoted back to you. Mark how it went: you made it through, or you gave in. Either way it's logged, without judgement. Over time, your resisted count, your patterns and your recovery timeline build up. KEY FEATURES • A lifetime craving count that never resets, relapse or not • Guided box-breathing sessions with a live timer and haptic pacing • Your own written reasons shown to you mid-craving, when you actually need them • Craving log with intensity, trigger and notes — resisted or not • Insights: craving heatmap by day and hour, most common triggers, average intensity, six-week trend • Recovery timeline with real, habit-specific milestones — heart rate, carbon monoxide, lung function, liver, sleep • Money saved and time recovered, with three-month and one-year projections • Relapse logging that restarts the clock and leaves your count alone • Switch between smoking, alcohol and gambling without losing progress • Quit goals — 30, 90, 180, 365 days, or your own • Optional daily check-in and milestone notifications, never streak nagging • Export everything you've logged as a CSV PRIVACY FIRST • No account, no sign-in, no servers • Everything you log is stored on this device only • No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs • Deleting the app deletes all of it IMPORTANT Resist is a wellness and lifestyle app. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition, including nicotine, alcohol, or gambling dependence. Alcohol withdrawal in particular can be dangerous and sometimes needs medical supervision. If you are stopping heavy drinking, or you are worried about your health, please speak to a qualified healthcare professional. SUBSCRIPTION Resist Pro — $2.99 / month, auto-renewing.
