Anchor: Quit Any Addiction

About this app

A craving doesn't check the clock. It shows up at midnight, mid-scroll, mid-drive — when everyone who loves you is asleep and a meeting is nine hours away.

Anchor was built for exactly those minutes.

Track any addiction — alcohol, porn, drugs, nicotine, gambling, social media, or the pattern you name yourself. All of them in one place, each with its own streak and its own story.

FREE, FOREVER — NO ADS, NO LIMITS
• Track unlimited patterns at once
• Daily check-ins, a journal, and a calendar that tells each day's story
• "It's pulling at me" — one button for the moment it hits
• Guided box breathing that works with no signal
• A full audio library: follow-along breathwork, EFT tapping, urge surfing, sleep hypnosis, and ocean-backed rest
• Your Anchor — a private vault for your reasons, photos, and a message to your future self, kept on your phone
• Progress worth looking at: milestone rings, a 13-week grid, your hardest windows, triggers, and money saved
• Home-screen widgets, including one-tap craving help
• Crisis resources — 988, Crisis Text Line, SAMHSA — always one tap away, never behind a paywall, and they work offline
No trial that expires into a paywall. The list above is simply free.

ONE BUTTON FOR THE WORST MINUTE

Press "It's pulling at me" and you get three ways through it, no typing required. Breathe it out. Look at your why — your own words, the faces you're staying steady for, a video message you recorded to yourself. Or talk it through with someone who's awake.

SHAME-FREE BY DESIGN

A slip restarts a clock, never your history. Lifetime days keep counting forever and past milestones stay earned. Coming back feels like continuing, not starting over — and that's built into how your data is stored, not just how the app talks to you.

JUNE & JACK — ANCHOR PREMIUM

June and Jack are AI recovery companions. Not humans, not therapists, not sponsors — and Anchor never pretends otherwise. What they are is awake at 3am, and they know your story: your patterns, your streaks, your why, what you told them last time.

Premium adds:
• Live voice calls — real-time conversation, up to 3 hours a month, any hour of the night
• Text them anytime — 1,000 messages a month
• Voice journaling — speak your check-in and Anchor writes it up
• Your person — a short "still steady" note every Sunday to up to 3 people you choose, sharing only what you decide
• 10 GB of cloud backup so your history survives a new phone

Anchor Premium is $19.99/month or $149.99/year. Everything in the free list stays free.

WHAT ANCHOR IS NOT

Anchor is a wellness companion, not therapy, counseling, or medical treatment, and it isn't a substitute for professional care. It doesn't diagnose or treat any condition, and it never gives detox or tapering advice — withdrawal symptoms are always routed to real care. If you're in crisis, Anchor points you to humans who can help, free, every time.

Anchor is available to adults 18+ in the United States.
