Steady
Read full descriptionHide full description
Quit sugar for good - in 90 days. Steady turns cutting sugar into a clear, daily plan: track cravings, build a streak, and watch the urge fade. Sugar is engineered to hook you. Steady is built to get you free - not with willpower alone, but with structure, science, and a coach in your pocket. WHY STEADY WORKS Most "quit sugar" attempts fail because they're all-or-nothing. Steady is a guided 90-day program that auto-tapers your sugar budget down to zero - one realistic day at a time. β 90-DAY PLAN A day-by-day path through 4 phases: Reset, Rewire, Rebuild, Freedom. Each day gives you one small action, not a lecture. β TRACK EVERY TREAT Log treats or grams in seconds. A live budget shows exactly how much room you have left today. β BEAT CRAVINGS IN THE MOMENT Hit Panic when a craving strikes: a guided breath, a reset, and a reminder that cravings pass in minutes - not hours. β STREAKS THAT SURVIVE REAL LIFE Build a sugar-free streak, with monthly freezes so one bad day doesn't undo your momentum. β SEE THE PAYOFF Watch your craving level drop week over week, and see the money you save by skipping the sugar. β EARN IT Unlock achievements as you hit milestones - 7 days, 30 days, 60, 90. Quitting sugar, gamified. HOW IT WORKS 1. Answer a few questions so Steady knows your habits and triggers. 2. Follow your daily plan and log what you eat. 3. Watch cravings fade and your streak grow. WHAT YOU'LL NOTICE Steadier energy instead of the afternoon crash. Fewer cravings. A clearer head. And proof - in your streak - that you're someone who follows through. You've tried quitting sugar on willpower. This time, do it with a plan. Steady is free to download and requires a paid Steady Pro subscription after onboarding. Steady Pro includes the 90-day plan, treat and gram tracking, Panic mode, streaks and streak freezes, craving and savings insights, and all achievements. The subscription automatically renews and can be canceled in App Store settings. βββ Medical Disclaimer Steady is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
