Tap "No — I had a slip." Your streak resets, but your pup never un-grows: growth follows your lifetime sober days, so every day you've earned stays part of them. The pup comforts you, your peak and lifetime totals stay on the Home screen, and every stage you re-earn celebrates again. Honesty is the only rule.
No. When you come back, DryDog asks what actually happened while you were away. If you stayed sober, tap "Yes" and those days are filled in — forgetting to open an app is not a relapse.
Tap your pup on the Home screen to pet them — they bounce, hearts pop, and they answer out loud. They also speak when you pledge, check in, feed a treat, finish an urge walk, or when they show you a sniffari find. The voice is on-device audio and respects your silent switch, so flip the ringer on to hear it. Toggle it under Settings → Pup voice.
Each morning before you've checked in, your pup asks "We've got today, right?" One tap makes the day's promise — the classic one-day-at-a-time ritual, made to someone who wags. Pledging never affects your streak; the evening check-in is still what counts.
Once a day you can send your pup out exploring. About four hours later they come home with a find — sticks, sea glass, lucky pennies, and 21 other treasures across common, uncommon, and rare tiers. Everything they bring home collects in the Finds & gifts book (Growth tab). Pack a snack (2 treats) for better odds.
Treats are earned — never bought — by pledging, checking in, and petting your pup. Feed one anytime from the pet card, or pack them as sniffari snacks. They're a bond thing, not a streak thing.
When a craving hits, tap "Rough moment? Walk it out" on Home. It's a three-minute walk with your pup: paced breathing, a progress ring, and your pup talking you through it. Cravings crest and pass in a few minutes — the walk carries you across, and the app remembers every one you've outlasted.
Your data is stored on your device and in your private iCloud account (nobody else — including us — can read it). DryDog is currently an iPhone app; an iPad version isn't available yet.
Pro unlocks multi-substance tracking — nicotine, cannabis, sugar, or a custom label of your own. Multi-pet is also Pro: track more than one streak at the same time and switch with a tap on the carousel.
Pro feature. Settings → "Generate sobriety certificate (PDF)" — this creates a printable PDF showing your pet, days clean, and sobriety date.
Settings → Find help → Find a meeting. We point you at the directories that keep meeting data current: Apple Maps near-me, the Meeting Guide app, SMART Recovery, Recovery Dharma, In The Rooms, and round-the-clock online meetings. DryDog does not host meeting data and is not affiliated with any recovery program — every link opens Safari or the destination app.
Settings → Find help → My person. Enter a name, a phone number, an optional label for who they are to you, and optional notes. Once saved, Call (green) and Text (blue) buttons appear at the top of the editor and a "Call my person" button shows up next to 988 in Crisis Resources. The number is stored on the device only — it never leaves.
Call or text 988 (US Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). Free, confidential, 24/7. International users: please contact your local crisis line.
