New: watch your savings tick up in real time, right on your home screen widget. Plus forgiving streaks, friend invites, and celebrations for every win.
You don't have to quit. Just swap — and watch what you get back.
Instead helps you trade the habit that's costing you (drinks, smokes, takeout, impulse buys) for something better, then shows you exactly what you're getting back: real money and a healthier body.
THE MONEY IS REAL
Tell Instead what your habit costs, and watch your savings grow in real time — cents ticking up while you work, sleep, and live your life. No spreadsheet, no manual math. An honest yearly projection shows where this is going.
YOUR BODY KEEPS SCORE
Connect Apple Health and see your resting heart rate, sleep, and energy respond as the swaps add up. Not someday — on a timeline that starts the hour you do.
STREAKS THAT FORGIVE
Life happens. Forget to log a day? Your streak survives. Slip up? It pauses, it doesn't reset to zero. Instead is built on momentum, not perfection — and slips are met with a plan, never a guilt trip.
FOR THE HARD MOMENTS
One tap on the temptation button brings up the reason you started — in your own words — plus a breathing exercise and your numbers. The decision you're about to make gets a lot easier.
ONE PERSON IN YOUR CORNER
Invite a friend as your accountability partner with one link. Send encouragement, see each other's streaks, and have someone to tap when it's hard. No crowds, no feeds you don't want — just backup.
ON YOUR HOME SCREEN
A widget keeps your day count and money saved in sight, so the progress you're protecting is the first thing you see.
Start with drinking less — it's where the money and health gains show up fastest — or swap smoking, vaping, fast food, gambling, impulse shopping, and more.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No ads. No selling your data. Your health data syncs securely to your account, and you can delete everything, permanently, in two taps.
The next decision is yours. Make it one you'll thank yourself for.
