According to the National Institute on Alcohol Manhandle and Alcoholism, about 15.1 million adults ages eighteen and older have alcoholism.

Staying sober requires a tremendous amount of private strength, psychological treatment, and reliable support along the way. Addiction is a complicated disease and affects people in different ways. While not a substitute for treatment, these apps can serve as instruments for extra positive reinforcement and accountability.

Stop Drinking with Andrew Johnson

Andrew Johnson’s app is designed for mighty drinkers who are attempting to either cut back or stop drinking altogether. It uses hypnotherapy, positive suggestions, and visualization to help you achieve your aim. You can set reminders via the day for times when you may need some help loosening and refocusing.

Twenty-Four Hours a Day

This app is based on the best-selling book of the same name. It’s been helping people with sobriety for years. The app offers three hundred sixty six daily meditations from the book at your fingertips, making it lighter for people to have help inbetween meetings or anytime it’s needed. Many of the meditations include prayer and religious teachings. The newest update gives phone users the capability to share its daily messages by text.

AlcoDroid Alcohol Tracker

AlcoDroid tracks your alcohol consumption, making it a good possible kicking off point if you suspect you misuse alcohol. Use it to log your drinks and see how often you’re drinking. The app will also give an estimated blood alcohol content based on your log. It can be set to track how much you spend on drinks as well.

12 Steps AA Companion

This app is based on the 12-step program from Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Each step represents part of the healing and recovery process. You get the Big Book of AA at your fingertips, with prayers, promises, and the capability to highlight and share text. A sobriety calculator keeps track of how many years, months, days, and hours you’ve been sober.

I Am Sober

Every day of sobriety is a victory. Reminding yourself of how much you’ve accomplished can help you stay on track. This app keeps track of these victories, including how long you’ve been sober and how much money you’ve saved by not buying alcohol. It notifies you when you reach fresh milestones and lets you set times to get daily notifications on your progress.

Happify

Anxiety and depression are often closely linked to alcoholism. Happify is designed to help you learn positive ways to cope with these moods instead of engaging in unhealthy behaviors. The app includes over thirty audio recordings. They’ll guide you toward positive thoughts. The recordings use evidence-based technologies shown to work in positive psychology, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy.

Coach.me

This app wasn’t specifically designed for addiction, but it’s made to help you set a aim and work toward it. You can use it to help limit or abandon drinking, track sober days, or as a way to practice fresh healthy habits, like getting regular exercise. Coach.me uses the power of positive reinforcement to help you achieve your goals and feel good about it.

SoberTool

SoberTool is designed specifically for people with alcoholism. It combines several features seen in the other apps we’ve mentioned. It tracks both days sober and money saved. There’s also a community forum where you can share messages as well as daily motivational messages and reminders to read them. One of its most unique devices is the capability to help you develop the best personalized relapse prevention based on a few questions in the app.

nomo – Sobriety Clocks

This app was actually created by someone in recovery to help himself keep on track and motivated. Set sobriety clocks to track how long it’s been since your last drink in this app. You can also find accountability fucking partners and share your information with them. Earn chips for recovery milestones, too. The app even has little distraction exercises to help your mind refocus during intense cravings.

Daybreak

Whether you’re stopping drinking altogether or attempting to cut back, a good support system can be a big help. Daybreak is designed to help you connect with a supportive community as well as health and well-being coaches.

Flipd is another app that’s not made specifically for addiction, but it does help you concentrate and practice productivity. Use it to block distractions and help yourself refocus on significant tasks. The app primarily concentrates on stepping away from your phone to unwind, engaging in other activities, and avoiding procrastination. It actually locks you out of your phone during designated times, except for making outbound emergency calls and receiving incoming calls.

recoveryBox

There isn’t just one treatment to recovery. It often requires several contraptions to keep you on course. This app is designed to keep you accountable for your own behavior by logging your “lights” — crimson for “acting out,” yellow for “warning,” and green for “way to go.” The idea behind this is that you can’t switch your behavior until you recognize it. This app aims to help you do both.

Field Guide to Life

The very first steps are often the hardest. While Field Guide was designed for people fresh to addiction recovery, it can be used at any stage.
