Hold On - Gambling Support
A quiet place to pause urges
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
* A quiet place to pause when gambling urges hit.
Not a lecture. Not someone telling you to "just stop."
Something that stays — calmly, without judgment — until the wave passes.
That's HOLD ON.
* Emergency Session
Press one button.
① 30 seconds of stillness
Touch and hold the screen. Breathe.
② Fill the next 10 minutes
Gentle guidance shifts your focus — to breathing, movement, or a safer activity.
③ A short check-in
Quiet reflection. No pressure, no scoring.
No points. No badges. No streak counters.
Recovery isn't a game.
* For the morning after a difficult day
When things don't go as hoped, HOLD ON matters most.
No shame screen. No "you broke your streak." No reset to zero.
Four quiet steps:
① Steady yourself with slow breaths.
② Look around — notice what's here.
③ Revisit what happened, without blame.
④ Name the pattern if a trigger returns.
Not a punishment. A way home.
* Anonymous community
Share anonymously or with a nickname.
• Anonymous posts → anonymous comments
• Nickname posts → nickname comments
No followers. No popularity contests.
Honest words from people who understand.
* Supporter connection
Connect someone who cares — a friend, partner, or family.
They can't control or monitor you. They see only your nickname, connection date, and
basic participation. Urges, emotions, and check-ins stay private.
Private chat when you want it.
* 4-week Care program
A short onboarding Q&A creates your 4-week (28-day) plan.
Each day:
- A 1-minute check-in
- Suggestions tuned to how you're doing
- A quiet nudge when things feel heavy
Weekly and monthly reflections help you notice patterns.
* Privacy first
Many hesitate to seek help, worried about leaving a record. HOLD ON gives you control
over what you share and how you appear.
* Important note
HOLD ON is a self-help tool for gambling urges. Not a substitute for professional
psychological treatment.
In crisis, please seek a qualified professional or local emergency services.
