Field notes
The page describes a reminder-to-audio flow, followed by a brief morning check-in; it says the sessions can work offline and that personal evenings and mornings stay on the phone. A separate two-minute session is presented for stronger urges, while planning a night out is described as an option after 14 evenings. Its cited lab study concerns decision-making after demanding mental work, not drinking, a limitation the page explicitly acknowledges.
