Nomo - Sobriety Clocks

I got this because I've been in a relationship with an active alcoholic who has been talking about starting recovery. Whatever he may choose, this app has turned out to be surprisingly helpful as I've started my own recovery from the affects of living around alcoholism! The clocks alone have been a great tool and a wonderful way to mark those emotional turning points when you know there's no going back to the way things used to be anymore. And the refocusing tools are a quick and easy way to get me to a clear, meditative state of mind. It fills the gaps around my meetings and daily readings, and I just shared my feelings of fear, shame, joy and appreciation and healing with the community through the encouragements section and feel a weight off my shoulders. I don't know if I'm ever going to bother with connecting with any accountability partners on there, but it still helps me feel that I'm not alone. Thanks!

This app has been useful for tracking the number of days of sobriety with the clock feature. I also like that you can create clocks for anything, so I also have clocks for food addictions. The encouragement function is a great way to feel as if you're not in this alone, and the distraction feature has simple games to help you through a moment of weakness. What I've found to be lacking is the Accountability Partner function. I've done partner requests based on the app's suggestions and haven't gotten an approval from a potential partner. Perhaps the people that I sent a request to aren't active anymore, or maybe that function is not working. I emailed the developer about the partner function, as well as a suggestion for the app, and he did not respond. Apparently at one time he was very responsive to messages. Combine this with the fact that the app hasn't been updated since January 2017 and it makes one suspect that something has happened to him or he has abandoned the app. Nevertheless, I still find it a useful tool and I check my clocks daily as a reminder of the positive direction I am taking with my life.

I stumbled upon this because I was looking for is a sobriety counter different than the one I already have. This one is definitely unique! I love the focus games and exercises, the journal is super handy! And, the encouragement and support seems pretty solid. I've only had it for about a week, but I'm getting a lot of use out of it already and pretty consistently. I've already recommended it to a few people. It is also awesome that you can use this app for Myriad addictions and even anxiety, I believe! It truly is a grounding app. It's pretty user-friendly, the only downside is sometimes it's hard to navigate or toggle between each of the sections because there's no back or previous button… However, I know it's always being upgraded and I'm still getting used to it; overall, it's not a glitch or really even a big deal in the grand scheme of things. The point is this app could really work in providing solid support from anyone in recovery, curious about recovery, or dealing with A close companion in recovery… All of the touch of a button! Thank you for this rockin app!

Get the app, take my word. You can trust me today, that wasn't always that way but I am trustworthy today 😊 I've had a couple of these apps over the years and this one is absolutely my favorite with all the different features and things to use it for besides the clock but the clock is why I originally got it. The other app i still have the clock doesn't work as good but has a lot of literature which I really do like having on my phone to use if I need on the go, still nothing like the books to flip through and hold but I use it as needed. So getting back to this app I'd love if there was some of the literature from different fellowships added. But really love the work that has been put into this app and truly appreciate all your efforts to be of service to the recovery community at large whatever each persons specific "poison" is.

This is a great tool for what it is originally intended - keep track of sobriety milestones. For this, this app is a great help. I check in with my chips each day and remind myself I don't want to go back. Other features are well intended but better found elsewhere. Potential accountability partners rarely respond and the few that do never once responded to check in or communication. Devotional tend to be insipid bromides - you can do it today! Rarely does it take one back to actual 12-step principles. Journal- do I need yet another word processor or notebook when google docs do so much better? There is reasons we go to meetings, have sponsors who we meet with and talk on the phone and read classic books such as "as bill sees it". For these items an app may be cool but really unnecessary as much as I tried to like these features. As a chip tracker it is great - the only negative is the app tries to be too much (as we addicted tend to do). So use it for what it is good for and get your accountability, encouragement, and inventory through proven channels. UPDATE: All was true until developer took a simple easy to use application and rewrote it. Now it is fancy, more cumbersome to use, very slow and tedious, and buggy. Reducing stars. UPDATE 2019. Ignore the above update. Developer quickly responded at the time and app has both traditional and new mode and is fine to use.
