The program is private, convenient, and backed by scientific research and accreditation. It supports people at all stages of recovery — whether they attend 12-step groups, are dealing with relapses, or transitioning from inpatient rehab. Coverage through Medicare, Medicaid, and other insurance plans, with no subscription fees or ads, makes Affect a trusted, effective digital alternative to rehabilitation clinics. Empower your sobriety journey with a personalized app that rewards and supports lasting recovery. ## Rankings - #102,972 — Overall - #22 — Medical (Free) ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_AD_ID` - `android.permission.ACCESS_ADSERVICES_ATTRIBUTION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_MEDIA_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE` - `android.permission.BLUETOOTH` - `android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN` - `android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT` - `android.permission.BLUETOOTH_SCAN` - `android.permission.BROADCAST_CLOSE_SYSTEM_DIALOGS` - `android.permission.CALL_PHONE` - `android.permission.CAMERA` - `android.permission.DOWNLOAD_WITHOUT_NOTIFICATION` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_CONNECTED_DEVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MICROPHONE` - `android.permission.INTERNET` - `android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS` - `android.permission.NFC` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_APP_BADGE` - `android.permission.READ_CALENDAR` - `android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `android.permission.READ_MEDIA_VISUAL_USER_SELECTED` - `android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE` - `android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED` - `android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO` - `android.permission.REORDER_TASKS` - `android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW` - `android.permission.USE_BIOMETRIC` - `android.permission.USE_FINGERPRINT` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WAKE_LOCK` - `android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR` - `android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE` - `com.affecttherapeutics.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` - `com.affecttherapeutics.permission.C2D_MESSAGE` - `com.affecttherapeutics.permission.DESKTOP_MODE` - `com.affecttherapeutics.permission.PIP_MODE` - `com.affecttherapeutics.sdk.permission-group.ipc.sender` - `com.anddoes.launcher.permission.UPDATE_COUNT` - `com.google.android.c2dm.permission.RECEIVE` - `com.google.android.finsky.permission.BIND_GET_INSTALL_REFERRER_SERVICE` - `com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.htc.launcher.permission.UPDATE_SHORTCUT` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.CHANGE_BADGE` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.huawei.android.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.majeur.launcher.permission.UPDATE_BADGE` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS` - `com.oppo.launcher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.READ` - `com.sec.android.provider.badge.permission.WRITE` - `com.sonyericsson.home.permission.BROADCAST_BADGE` - `com.sonymobile.home.permission.PROVIDER_INSERT_BADGE` - `com.symbol.emdk.permission.EMDK` - `com.zebra.provider.READ` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_READ` - `me.everything.badger.permission.BADGE_COUNT_WRITE` - `us.zoom.videomeetings.permission.PT_BROADCAST` ## Review summary Overall, reviews are highly positive.
