## Review summary

Users find the app helpful for tracking sobriety and receiving motivation to quit smoking and drinking. However, many complain about the frequent and intrusive ads, including ads appearing immediately on launch. The app currently tracks only smoking and drinking, with users requesting support for more addictions. Some users want the ability to set earlier sobriety start dates. Overall, the app is valued as a supportive tool but is hindered by its ad strategy and limited habit options.

### Pros

- Helps users track their progress towards quitting smoking and drinking.
- Provides motivational notes and simple encouragement features.
- Seen as a useful and supportive tool in quitting bad habits.
- Simple and straightforward to use as a habit-breaking aid.
- Recommended by at least one deaddiction psychologist as a positive support tool.

### Cons

- Excessive advertising, including full-screen ads, often immediately upon opening the app.
- Limited to tracking only smoking and drinking addictions; users want more habit options.
- Cannot set the sobriety start date in the past, defaulting to the moment of app setup.
- Ads interrupt the user experience and are considered intrusive by multiple users.
