100% private. No account needed. Create a personalized tapering schedule for benzos, SSRIs, opioids, or any substance. Track doses, symptoms, and progress on your terms. Taper helps you reduce your use of medications or substances without disrupting work, family, or daily routines. Whether you're tapering off benzodiazepines, antidepressants, pain medications, or recreational substances, Taper gives you a clear record of what you're taking and how it's affecting you. NEW: TAPER PLANS Create a personalized tapering schedule with step-by-step guidance: • Choose your method: percentage reduction (e.g., 10% method), fixed amounts, finish by a target date, or simply by number of reductions • Set your pace: you decide the days between reductions • Daily reminders with exact doses and times • Visual progress chart with your current step highlighted • Pause, resume, or adjust your plan as needed • Track your daily progress FREE FEATURES • Log every dose with exact amount, unit, and time • Track your reasons: withdrawal relief, fear of symptoms, or expected benefits • Daily check-ins for mood, side effects, cravings, and withdrawal symptoms • Follow-up reflections on how doses actually made you feel • Usage charts in 7-day, 30-day, or all-time views • Encrypted backups to export and restore your data • Clean, Calming Design: Built for clarity, especially on tough days PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your sensitive information stays on your device. No ads. No tracking. Encrypted backups are optional and shareable if you're working with a provider. Taper was built by people who've lived through withdrawal, frustration, and recovery, and want to make it less painful for the next person.

Good App but needs a few more features

So far I like how simple this works and how theres not much in between to take away effectiveness of logging. So using it I noticed that I missed logging dose yesterday and there’s no way to go back to a previous day to add the correct qty. I would like to be able to edit past entries or add to past days. Also the chart is nice but I would also like to see alternates to view the data that I can toggle between. Hopefully these are something you guys can do.

I thought I could do this on my own

This app is just what I need. Now I can make a plan to stop taking a medication that I’ve been on for many years. I’ve tried tracking it on paper and figuring out what I’ve done week to week, but that has never worked. I’d like the charts. Now I will have a visual of how I’m doing and not just a written plan.

Don’t waste your time on this app. There is no free version, so after you give them all your medical info it then requests you pay them before even showing a plan to get off your meds. It says it doesn’t offer medical advice, but it did to me, and if I had followed it, I could’ve died or gotten extremely sick. Work with your doctor or come up with your own plan to get off your meds; don’t listen to the AI created apps like this who just collect your personal information and money. Much, much better apps out there to follow your plan. This app shouldn’t even be legal.

This review contains several inaccuracies we'd like to address: (1) All your medical data stays on your device by design. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal health information. (2) The app shows common tapering approaches, designed to be used in accordance with a doctor's prescribed plan. (3) We have explicit warnings about the dangers of unsupervised tapering in the second step of onboarding.Taper was created by someone who went through withdrawals themselves, under consultation of a pharmacist, and is designed to help others taper off medications with the guidance of a doctor. It is not AI-generated and has been in development for over a year.Your claim that following this app "could've" resulted in death or extreme sickness is concerning. Our default taper settings are drawn from medical literature. For medications outside known drug classes, we default to a conservative 15-month, 10% hyperbolic taper. If you entered custom settings that produced a dangerous plan, please contact support@usetaper.app with details so we can investigate.

I like that it is private, I also like it is open ended. You have no idea how long it will take you to quit something the Dr has had you on for 25 years. So far very impressive, thank you !
