Remedy offers a daily record across substances. Reframe offers an alcohol-focused program with educational material and activities. Start with whether you need a flexible log, structured alcohol support, or both.
Written by the team that makes Remedy. We checked official product descriptions and Remedy's current implementation. This is an editorial comparison, not a clinical study or an independent security audit. Our recommendations describe a match between features and recording needs; they do not rank treatment outcomes.
Remedy: logging and context
Remedy records use and confirmed no-use days across substances, with a calendar and journal context. Entries use dosage levels; you can put a measured amount or product details in a note. Those levels do not calculate a safe dose or replace a drink-unit calculator. Remedy also has Community. Local tracking and information you choose to post to Community have different sharing implications.
Keep your daily record with Remedy
Record use, no-use days and journal context in one place.
Reframe: an alcohol-focused program
Reframe describes educational content, daily activities, progress tracking and community tools. Its App Store listing also describes a separate coaching offering. Check which services your subscription includes and whether coaching costs extra.
Program content may suit someone who wants prompts and activities alongside tracking. A program's length does not establish how long recovery takes. Reframe states that its app is not intended to treat alcohol use disorder; do not equate an educational subscription with medical care.
Compare the daily routine
In Remedy, test whether entries and journal notes capture your actual day. In Reframe, inspect an example day's content and the time it requires. If you track substances other than alcohol, confirm how each candidate handles them before subscribing.
Our alcohol app comparison also covers drink diaries. The multi-substance comparison covers other logs and counters.
Try the record you actually need
- Enter a use day and a no-use day, then correct a mistake.
- Check whether the fields preserve your substances, units and context.
- Review device storage, account sync, community visibility and deletion settings.
- Check current local subscription terms, export options and cancellation before paying.
A tracking app is not a diagnosis, treatment plan or emergency service. If you need help with withdrawal or other health concerns, ask a qualified health professional about appropriate care.
