Momentum is a quiet, supportive companion for sobriety and recovery. It tracks your days, celebrates milestones, and gently nudges you to check in — without ever feeling like a chore.
Built around one simple idea: showing up today is the whole practice. Every notification, every prompt, every visual choice was tuned to keep that warmth.
What’s inside
- Streak tracking — pick the date your journey started; Momentum counts every day forward, with milestone notifications at 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years
- Daily check-ins — adaptive nudges that learn your rhythm. Fall behind on your usual time? Momentum surfaces a quiet “Quick check-in?” not a panic alarm.
- Streak-at-risk warnings — exactly one gentle heads-up before your window closes. Never spammy.
- Journaling — capture how today went, in your own words, on your own schedule
- Personalization — set your name, your “why”, your reminder time, your appearance
- Shareable progress — generate an image of your milestone to send to someone who matters
- Multi-language — English, Deutsch, Español out of the box
- Quiet by design — gentle reminders channel for after you’ve been away; no doomscroll mechanics, no leaderboards
On the messaging
The product was built around a small library of phrases like:
“You showed up today. That’s the whole practice.”
“Day N. How’s today going?”
“The hardest part is already behind you. Let’s set things up so we can walk this road together.”
Tone matters in this space. Every notification, every empty state, every failed-export message was rewritten until it sounded like a friend — never a coach, never a salesman.
Tech
Native Kotlin Android, Gradle build, signed release keystore. Backend included in the same repo for sync and notifications. Shipped on Google Play with multi-language support out of the box.
Designed for the people who need it
Recovery apps are everywhere. Most feel like productivity software bolted onto something sacred. Momentum was built deliberately small, deliberately soft — the goal isn’t to maximize engagement, it’s to be there on the day someone needs to know that someone (something) noticed they showed up.
If that resonates, the Play Store listing has the install. It’s free.
