IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
BAC Buddy provides estimates only. It is not a medical device and does not measure your actual blood alcohol concentration. Never use this app to decide whether it is safe or legal to drive. Readings can be inaccurate due to body chemistry, medication, food, sleep, and logging errors. If you or someone else may be in danger, call emergency services immediately. Safety Information: Built-in safety tips, emergency warning signs, and a dedicated Safety tab to help you make informed decisions.

IMPORTANT ACCURACY FIX
Your BAC estimate could read far lower than it should — sometimes 0.00 — if you had a drink earlier in the day before your current session. The estimate now stays accurate across gaps between drinks.
If you log the same drinks you always have, you may notice your estimate reads higher than in previous versions. The new number is the correct one.
NEW
• Apple Watch complication — see your current estimate right on your watch face
IMPROVED
• Favorites now sync reliably between iPhone and Apple Watch
• VoiceOver support throughout the Apple Watch app
• Faster syncing and smoother performance
As always: this is an estimate, not a measurement. Never use BAC Buddy to decide whether it is safe or legal to drive.
