Description
Try Dry® the life-changing, science-based, totally free app (no ads!) for taking control of your drinking, created for and paid for by the charity Alcohol Change UK.
Try Dry® is the powerful, easy-to-use, and totally free premium app helping tens of thousands of people to take control of their drinking. Try Dry® is the official app of the Dry January® challenge, which was created and is run by the charity Alcohol Change UK.
Co-created with drinkers and based on behavioural science and a spirit of experimenting (hence the name), Try Dry® contains unique features such as 'planned drinking', custom goals, and special missions. Unlike 'sobriety-only apps', it works brilliantly whether you want to cut back or try being sober.
Whether you’re taking on the Dry January® challenge, doing Sober Spring, trying a sober October, making a longer-term change to your drinking, or just cutting back, the Try Dry® app is your trusted year-round support system.

Ratings and Reviews
Great for tracking your days.
I starting using the app in January and love seeing the days rack up. Love that there’s a journal to track mood and motivation etc. Whatever your reasons are for trying dry, this app is easy to use, to the point and its genius is in its simplicity.
Excellent resource
I love this app. It has really helped me engage in mindful drinking
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for your 5* review and it's great to hear that Try Dry® has helped you drink more mindfully. Best wishes.
Motivational and straightforward app
Have been using for one year and have greatly reduced my drinking. The daily check-in and blogs are real positives and it’s encouragingly easy to re-set if you don’t meet a goal. The units calculator section is on the clunky side but hey it’s free and ad free as well.
Developer Response ,
Hi, thanks so much for your four star review of Try Dry - we appreciate your feedback on the units calculator and will take this into consideration! It's great to hear that you find the app helpful. Best wishes.
