New mobile app to help quit, reduce drinking

A new mobile app developed by the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) offers those who want to reduce or quit drinking alcohol the ability to track and manage their drinking habits.

The new app, called Saying When, is designed for people who are concerned about their drinking, but who do not have a severe alcohol use disorder.

Each drink entered is measured when the app user fills the interactive glass and determines how many standard drinks they have consumed.

Throughout the tracking process, the app is programmed to offer tips for success. The coping section of the app also provides users with the opportunity to learn what strategies work best for them as they rank the success of each one over time.

The Saying When app is now available for purchase in the iTunes store.
