Craving & Recovery Support
When an urge hits, Anchor guides one private next step, records what helped, and adapts future support—for smoking, alcohol, gambling, scrolling and more.
Cravings do not wait for a streak counter.
Anchor helps you act in the minutes that matter—before an urge becomes an unwanted decision.
Instead of overwhelming you with generic habit tools, Anchor creates focused support tracks around the patterns you choose. Each track has its own triggers, check-ins, plans, journal prompts, interventions and insights.
HOW ANCHOR WORKS
NOTICE RISING RISK
Anchor combines recent check-ins, timing, urge history and optional read-only Apple Health signals to indicate when additional support may be useful.
GET ONE CLEAR NEXT STEP
When an urge arrives, record its intensity and context. Anchor recommends one appropriate action instead of presenting a cluttered menu.
MOVE THROUGH THE MOMENT
Follow a guided breathing exercise, movement reset, distraction, private reflection, personal reason or trusted-contact prompt.
RECORD WHAT HELPED
Tell Anchor whether the urge passed, reduced or became a slip. Honest outcomes improve future recommendations without judgment.
UNDERSTAND YOUR PATTERNS
See how timing, stress, sleep, context and previous actions connect across difficult moments.
SUPPORT THAT MATCHES YOUR HABIT
Create separate tracks for:
• Alcohol
• Smoking and vaping
• Cannabis
• Opioids
• Gambling and betting
• Social media and scrolling
• Pornography
• Food and bingeing
• Caffeine
• A custom pattern
Anchor changes its language, actions, tracking method and safety guidance according to the track currently in focus.
BUILT FOR THE MOMENT AN URGE HITS
• Record urge intensity and context

ADAPTIVE SHIELD
For digital triggers such as gambling, social media and pornography, Shield uses Apple Screen Time controls to add protection around selected apps and websites. Your selections remain private and are represented by Apple-issued tokens.
PRIVATE INSIGHTS AND PROGRESS
• Track streaks, milestones and money saved
• Follow reduction goals where self-managed reduction is appropriate
• Discover recurring times and contexts
• Review which interventions helped
• Process journal topics and sentiment on device
• Generate private PDF reports
• Export your data whenever you choose
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Anchor does not require a recovery social profile. Recovery history, journal analysis and learned patterns remain on your device. Apple Health access is optional and read-only.
SUBSCRIPTION
Full access requires a subscription. The annual plan includes a 3-day free trial, and a monthly option is also available. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through Apple subscription settings.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Anchor is a wellness and recovery companion. It does not diagnose, predict or treat addiction and is not a replacement for professional medical care or emergency services.
Stopping alcohol, opioids or other substances can require medical supervision. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before making decisions that could create withdrawal or other health risks. If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency or crisis services.
