Quit drinking one day at a time. Sober Tracker turns your decision to stop into something you can actually see: the days you have stayed sober, the money you did not spend, and the milestones you have passed. WHAT'S INSIDE - Sobriety counter - days, hours and minutes since your last drink - Money saved - based on what you used to spend - Milestones - 24 hours, 1 week, 30 days, 100 days, 1 year and beyond - Progress at a glance - open the app, see how far you have come - Start over anytime - reset your counter without losing what you have learned WHY A COUNTER HELPS Motivation fades. A number does not. Watching your streak grow gives you something concrete to protect on the days when willpower alone is not enough. QUIET BY DESIGN No social feed. No comparisons. No lectures. Just your progress, on your phone. SOBER TRACKER PRO Unlock the full app with a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
