The honest limits

What it does, and what it doesn’t

tracks progress kindly · not treatment

What it does

Starts a private quit journal for alcohol, nicotine, screens, sugar or any habit
Opens a guided urge-surfing timer when a craving hits
Logs check-ins, urges and slips without resetting your whole story
Reviews patterns so you can see triggers earlier

What it doesn’t

Doesn’t turn recovery into a shame cycle or reset everything on a slip
Isn’t addiction treatment, crisis intervention, or a medical device
Keeps core entries on device — no login required

Not medical advice. Talk to your clinician.

How it works

Four things, done properly

Quit anything, your way

Alcohol, nicotine, screens, sugar or any habit — one calm journal for the thing you’re leaving behind.

Ride out the urge

A guided urge-surfing timer for the moment a craving hits, so you have something to do besides fight it.

Slips without the reset

Log a slip without wiping your progress. Recovery isn’t all-or-nothing, and the app doesn’t pretend it is.
