Sober Time - Sobriety Counter for Negative User Reviews

So many adds, the app is functionally useless.As above. Would probably be a good app if it wasn’t drowning in ads for garbage. No way to close some of the ads without re-starting the app. Garbagé..Version: 4.0.98

AdvertisingOnly tried the free version but the adds are almost impossible to live with..Version: 4.0.77

Was once a great appThis was once a great app that counted my sobriety days and I checked it every morning. Then I woke up one day, and everything was deleted, and there was tons of ads. I was told if I pay money I can get rid of the ads, what a scam! Developers sold out and went for the money grab.. enough said. OK I got a response from the developers with a very textbook response taking no responsibility for ruining a good app. Saying the ads give money to go back into keeping it running when I guarantee somebody's sitting in a big house on a hill after implementing all these ads and pocketing the money. Plus, it ran and worked just fine before they implanted implemented the ads. They also say if you uninstall the app and reinstall it, your information will be lost, but all my information was lost when they did the new update. Plus, it used to track how much you spent and saved on alcohol over the years, and that all disappeared as well. they can say what they want, but they did a total Metallica cash grab sellout move. Anyways, I deleted it years ago when they changed the app so I’m done..Version: 4.0.90

The Ads are awfulIt’s a hard no from me, ads are ok, but these dominate the whole app. Couldn’t even have a look at the app without a very loud and annoying ad!.Version: 4.0.89

Notifications selection not workingI choose only one type of notification but it keeps showing all notifications including for the journal and everything..Version: 4.0.53

BrutalIf you like loud annoying ads you’ll love this app.Version: 4.0.37

So.You are one to offer this app to people who are interested in sobriety, but still require money for all the added benefits? Sounds like a new addiction. Mind you, it’s a great app for folks who are interested. Let’s move into the idea of why people are seeking this app, for sobriety. That means not spending money for things they need to help them move through space and time without an addiction to a substance or to spend money towards a substance to survive. What a worthless way to defeat substance abuse - realize that this app is a substance as well. And so are the commercials you run on your application. You should learn about token target before you release an app that influences the same exact target they are trying to rid..Version: 1.24

What???My app just said that I’ve been sober for 2018 years and when I tried to reset it, the app shut down.. this happened three times. I deleted and re downloaded the app and now my purchase of the full version no longer works...Version: 1.60

Horrible!This app is horrible! The ads appear and you can’t get rid of them. They are online gaming ads which are very load, annoying as hell! I’m looking for a new app. This one sucks!.Version: 4.0.94

Three of fiveFirstly I’m so glad a sober app like this is available. I didn’t know about it until a youtuber mentioned it in a sober journey vlog. I enjoy the journals and the sober day counter. I do not however feel that the app is way to navigate and I think it could function more smoothly. I also wish that when I was entering my profile information after the email verification link, that it did not grab the photo for my business. I can’t make sense of how that happened, but quickly fixed it. I want to be sure that I have privacy with use of this app, and I do want to continue..Version: 4.0.98

Update reset my progressI really liked this app and found it really helpful until I installed the update today and it completely reset my progress. Luckily I was able to remember my start date and set a new one up but when you rely on the tracker to keep you going the anxiety of it resetting on you isn’t very helpful.Version: 1.61

Marketing off of addictions?Its good, and functional, but ads? there are ads littered inside this app... seriously,, marketing off of real peoples struggles and addictions forcing them to watch an ad when they just want help and to better themselves bro. thats so disappointing..Version: 4.0.79

Advertising is insensitiveThis app uses ads that encourages gambling on other apps and other 'gambing' like activity apps. This is irresponsible for someone using the app who also may have a gambling addiction and could trigger them to replase on that while trying to stay sober on your app. Addiction is often paired with other addictions and the ads featured on this app should be more in line with recovery ads or more neutral advertising. I dowloaded and got an ad for me to gamble on some site so i deleted straight away. I understand that by keeping an app free u need to have advertising but it should align more closely with what the user should be exposed to - not gambling or other addictive behaviours..Version: 4.0.38

Ads promoting the behavior you’re trying to stop !?!?!I had a very problematic experience upon first launching the software. My primary motivation to use the software was to track sobriety with respect to video games. As I was setting up my account the app indicated that it includes ads and it immediately went to an advertising for - you guessed it - a video game. I immediately closed the app and uninstalled. I appreciate that the developers need to make money and may not want to use a subscription model, but it is critical that they consider the impact those decisions might have on users of their product as the field of addiction is life and death for many. If they could choose to limit advertising to certain non-triggering categories, I’ve got no problem. However the world is rife with video game and social media addiction these days, and to not factor that into their model seems terribly irresponsible. I assume they surely wouldn’t endorse ads for alcohol foe their sobriety counter, but they need to be more open minded to other problem areas too. I can’t speak to the functional capabilities of this program but did find another that seems quite similar and ad-free..Version: 4.0.39

Gambling adverts? Really?An addiction app that bombards you with online gambling adverts. Massive fail..Version: 1.18

Great BUT why show addicts video ads for phone gamesThis app is great because it’s free and you can keep track of your progress and even journal. However, while I know it’s free because of said ads, doesn’t this app realize that some people using the app may also have an addiction with online games and gambling (since most use real money) to use? So… can’t this app find another way to make itself free? Can you show different ads? Like how about ones for treatment centers or online treatment help or something. There has to be a different way! That’s all I’m saying! As a substance abuse counselor please change the way you generate profit!!!.Version: 4.0.98

Do you want to focus on what you’re missing?This is great if you want to measure and be continually reminded you are denying yourself something. An alternative is to change “I’m not going to indulge again” thinking, with “thank god I don’t have to indulge again” thinking. This app, by focusing you on your abstinence, is going to keep the substance you wish to avoid front and centre of your thinking. Not sure that helps overcome the addiction..Version: 1.62

Very FrustratedThis was one of my favourite apps, however, upon getting a new iPhone it has completely stopped working for me! 1) it will not allow me to sign in with my email address and does not send out links to update password. 2) as a result of not being able to sign in, it has not acknowledged my former premium payment, so am having to watch the annoying adverts. 3) when trying to purchase again - reluctantly after I have already purchased it - it crashes and will not even allow me to upgrade, so am stuck!! Have tried to email developer but again, it crashes when trying to get to the contact details. Very poor..Version: 4.0.59

I have been clean 60 days2 weeks after getting clean. I started to laugh and realized how bad life was as an addict. I made many changes to my life..Version: 4.0.92

Sober timeThis is a perfect tool and helps to motivate you.Version: 4.0.82

Sober appCool app.Version: 4.0.89

An Ad NightmareI have zero respect for any app or website that boasts sobriety and recovery as their mission, yet within the first 10 mins of my usage, 2 full-page ads for gambling apps that are required to be watched in their entirety before moving within the app. DISGUSTING! Addiction comes in many forms, and gambling is one of the most devastating. For those of us struggling with or touched by addiction, we know all too well how one addiction can be swapped for another. This app and it’s developers should be ASHAMED of themselves!!! I will be reporting this app and will steer anyone away if they find themselves in need of these services, and also posting warnings on Reddit and other social communities. You are taking advantage of people in one of their most vulnerable times..Version: 4.0.53

Has potential too many adsThe free version as great upon set up. The counter and financial savings feature is great. Then the ads start… every time you touch the screen you get an ad. So annoying. I appreciate free apps needs some Ads but this is over kill and a total turn off..Version: 4.0.37

I believe this app could use some updatingSo there is a limit on how many statues you can post, how many comments you can make, how many people you can reply to. There are limits on every things. Whenever you exceed those limits, then you are forced to wait about 24 hours before you are able to make statuses, comment, or reply again. I think it’s a big ridiculous. What is the point of making an app to where you can track your sobriety, but also meet and interact with new people who are going through the same things as you, if you guys are just gonna set very low limits on everything. Also, why did I have to pay for premium subscription, whenever I am not getting any premium features. I think this app is more or less just a joke..Version: 4.0.39
