Description

Lower My Drinking will give you the expert advice and scientifically-proven tools you need to reduce your drinking to the recommended limit of 14 units a week or less.

Lower My Drinking will guide you to set your drinking goal. Then it will help you achieve this by guiding you to:
• Track your progress towards your drinking goal
• Recognise all the gains you will make by cutting down
• Focus on what is really motivating you to reduce your drinking
• See how your drinking compares to the rest of the population

As well as this, Lower My Drinking will show you the issues that could potentially cause you to drink more than is healthy for you and give you a set of proven skills you can use to address these.

Specifically, these skills will allow you to:
• Change how you think about alcohol and the role it plays in your life
• Anticipate situations that may tempt you to drink too much, and plan how you will limit your drinking when you get there
• Stay calm and relaxed in any situation without having a drink
• Replace drinking in your daily routine with positive activities that will make you feel good
• Manage any impulses to drink at the wrong time or in the wrong place by using a mindfulness technique
• Improve your lifestyle and boost your overall physical and emotional wellbeing

Wrong focus

I hoped that this App would be useful but it implies that your out-of control drinking is at inappropriate times and places. I drink wine with dinner, most days. I share a bottle with my partner. I can’t substitute that with an activity or mindfulness. I like wine. I also drink water with meals. So I don’t see how this app will help me. I’ve deleted it as it’s not relevant to my lifestyle and I can’t see how it will help me cut down. Will power here I come!

Poor user experience , no helpful advice

As others have said, the app is not user friendly and frustrating to use. It doesn’t seem to offer any practical suggestions. Given that it asks to track location and personal data I was hoping for more advice that would be related to me. With more guidance, the tools in the app might make a helpful lifestyle change.
