Features & Capabilities

UrgeShield is a recovery companion built for one thing: helping you stop gambling and stay stopped, one day at a time.

It's not a generic habit tracker with a gambling label slapped on. Every tool inside was built around how urges actually happen — suddenly, at inconvenient times, with your phone already in your hand.

EVERYTHING INCLUDED — Blocker: blocks gambling apps and sites through Screen Time, with a built-in cooldown that's intentionally hard to talk yourself around in the moment. — SOS button: one tap routes you to the National Problem Gambling Helpline or a trusted contact, wherever you are in the app. — August: a supportive AI chat companion with memory across sessions, available any time you need to talk something through before you act on it. — Streak tracker: your current streak, past milestones, and accountability partners who get notified if you need support. — Savings tracker: see what you're actually keeping instead of losing, with goal pace projections and a running dashboard of money saved. — Urge pattern insights, built from your own check-ins over time. — Streak & Savings widgets for your Home Screen. — Resources: crisis support, a nearby-treatment finder, and recovery stories from people further down the same road.

PRICING Try everything free for 7 days. After the trial, UrgeShield is $9.99/month, billed through your Apple ID. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID subscription settings.

UrgeShield is built local-first. Your data lives on your device and syncs only through your own private iCloud account — never a server we run.

UrgeShield is a supportive tool, not a replacement for professional treatment, and it's not a crisis service. If you're in danger or thinking about harming yourself, call 911 or the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-522-4700 — free, confidential, and available 24/7.

UrgeShield is intended for users 17 and older.

User Reviews

I don’t normally write reviews, but UrgeShield genuinely deserves one. Before downloading this app, I felt like I was constantly fighting the same habits and losing. I’d tell myself “this is the last time,” only to fall right back into the same cycle. It was frustrating, embarrassing, and honestly started affecting the way I felt about myself. UrgeShield gave me something I had been missing: a way to actually interrupt the urge instead of just hoping my willpower would magically be stronger that day. Over time, those small wins started adding up. I feel more disciplined, more confident, and more in control of my life than I have in a long time. It sounds dramatic to say an app helped me turn things around, but that’s genuinely what it feels like. If you’re stuck in a cycle you’ve been trying to break, give this a chance. I’m incredibly glad I did.
