QSRecovery · Free apps and workbook · Adults 18+
I'm Chris. I built these two apps from lived experience. One is for your own recovery. The other is for the people living alongside someone else's addiction. You can also download my free personal workbook to print or type into. Take what helps, at your own pace.
No account or sign-in. The workbook and both apps open straight away.

Getting started
Use “Android APK file (optional)” underneath your chosen app. Tap Open in your browser's completed download notification and follow Android's installation prompts. Once installed, open the app from its icon. If your launcher only adds it to the app list, press and hold its icon and drag it to your Home Screen. You can also find the file in Downloads if you prefer.
Install the new signed Android APK over your existing app to keep its saved entries. Open the app and close and reopen it once so its cached pages can refresh. The browser apps update when opened online. Make an encrypted backup in Settings before an update if you want a copy you control.
Choose “Add to Home Screen” above, or use the browser option. On iPhone or iPad, open the page in Safari, tap Share → Add to Home Screen → Add. Keep Open as Web App on if shown. This is the web app version; APK files are for Android. Restore an encrypted backup if moving your writing between versions.
Both apps are free and open without an account. There is no payment or testing commitment. Use them at your own pace.
Tell me which app you used, your phone or browser, and what worked or needs fixing. Please leave out private journal entries, passcodes and personal health information. Email your feedback.
The signed Android builds are available for feedback; physical-device acceptance testing is still being completed.
Help someone find the tools
