Sobi: Sobriety Tracker

The features in this app are more than just tracking your sobriety date, it’s a helpline and an easy way to reach out for when you’re feeling vulnerable. Didn’t see any features in other apps quite like this one, a hotline is just a tap away and it provides coping mechanisms and a way to log triggers or events. Although as any kind of recovery, reaching out and talking to others is a big piece. But it’s important to acknowledge and recognize behaviors by logging them or the convenience of being a click away from an immediate response so you have an idea of what your dealing with for when you do reach out to someone in your support circle. It also is convenient to check how far you’ve come. With milestones that let you know what benefits to expect from whatever you’re quitting, it’s like another reward to look forward to. Hoping to see how this app progresses in further updates :).

Started using this for skin picking disorder and it’s been good to me so far. The AI feature is knowledgeable in all types of addictions and mental health issues, so this app is versatile to whatever you need help with. Sobi is adorable and the app makes me feel relaxed, rather than stressed and even has a breathing exercise feature and access to a hotline. My only issue that I’ve noticed is that when I’m journaling, if i write longer than one page, I’m unable to scroll down to see what I’m writing. Literally could be my phone glitching though idk :) great app overall and I highly recommend for keeping up with relapse/habit tracking!

Really liking the app so far, has most everything one could want in a cute layout. One problem tho, the late night check ins are triggering at noon for me instead of midnight. The regular night one happens at the right time. Also, I can’t find a way to change what check ins I receive. And finally, if you’re open to suggestions, it would be great if selecting a day on the calendar sent you to your journal entry of that day. As it is, I don’t find the calendar with its sort of vaguely defined (and hard to distinguish from each other) shades of blue particularly useful. All in all tho, this really is a thoughtfully designed app. The little Sobi creature is adorable, and the whole thing is gamified just enough to make you want to stick with it, without going overboard into feeling either too cutesy or too high pressure. Would recommend to anyone looking for a sobriety tracker of any sort.
