I live this app - simple, well-designed, intuitive to use and supports an important health goal. My only gripe is that in the latest upgrade you can only view units over last 7 days (or other period of time) by downloading a pdf. It’s useful to be able to download the record but clunk when all you need is at at-a-glance how am I doing? Please bring back that facility. It’s made me switch apps! Otherwise I love the interface. Thank you.
Excellent

I work in the drugs/alcohol field and got years I have been getting my clients to do drink/craving diaries on bits of photocopied paper which really hasn't worked, the clients have also worried about people finding the paper. I now suggest to my clients that they use this app instead. It is excellent and enables them to have their drink/craving diary on them at all times. The only change that I would make is to have a large number of branded alcohols already available to select. I wish there was a drug/craving equivalent.
Great app

Very easy to use. I downloaded as I wanted to cut back on my drinking and it has been a big help in me recognising my drinking pattern. It is motivating seeing how many alcohol free days I have and it makes me think twice when I go for a drink. It makes me think do I really need this? And also I feel more of a sense of achievement when I don’t drink, as I am quite a visual person, so it is satisfying to see more of the light blue days (where you are alcohol free) compared to yellow and red when I have drank.
Great app, but one suggestion

This is great for keeping track of my drinking habits, however can a feature be added where rather than personalising drinks (ie cider) to % and price each, when you log a drink it gives you the option to add % and price?I drink quite a few different ciders and wines and that would be a great help. For example on pub I go to is £1.99 for a pint, where another pub is £3.50HOWEVER the fact that this is my only “issue” with the app speaks volumes about its quality!
