FreshPath - A shame-free day counter for your recovery

FreshPath is a sobriety counter for cannabis, alcohol, nicotine, or any habit — built with zero shame and zero failure language. Unlike apps that say "streak broken," FreshPath says "Starting fresh takes courage." Every screen is designed for someone having their worst day. Features: live day counter, health timeline, 35 trophies, journal, craving log, money tracker, and SOS button. Works offline. No account needed. Data stays on your device. Free with optional $4.99 one-time upgrade.

I built FreshPath because every recovery app I tried made me feel worse when I slipped. "Streak broken." "You relapsed." That's the last thing someone needs on their worst day. So I built something different. If you reset your counter in FreshPath, it says "Starting fresh takes courage" — not "you failed." The entire UI is designed with the assumption that the person opening it might be in crisis. What it does: • Counts days, hours, and minutes since your last use • Supports 4 substance modes: cannabis, alcohol, nicotine, or general • Health timeline showing how your body heals over time (with medical citations) • 35 trophies and milestone celebrations • Journal with mood tracking • Craving log with coping strategies • Money saved calculator • SOS button for tough moments What makes it different: • No failure language — ever • Works completely offline, no account or sign-up needed • Your data never leaves your device • Three calming themes (bold, minimal, warm) designed for hard moments • One-time $4.99 premium — no subscriptions, no recurring charges I'm a solo developer and built this from scratch with vanilla HTML/CSS/JS — no frameworks, no React, no build step. It runs on iOS, Android, and web from a single codebase using Capacitor. I'd love to hear your feedback, especially from anyone in recovery or supporting someone who is. What would make this more useful for you?
