Show HN: StopAddict – Track and beat your addictions by gaining XP
1 skyzouw 1 7/9/2025, 8:41:59 AM
Hi HN,
I built StopAddict, a simple app to help people quit addictions by turning the process into a game. Each day you resist your addiction, you earn XP and level up, building a visible streak to keep you motivated.
I created this because I noticed that tracking progress and visualizing small wins helps maintain discipline, especially in the first weeks of quitting. The app is lightweight, distraction-free, and designed to give a clear sense of progress without social features or ads.
You can try it here: https://www.stopaddict.net/
Feedback is welcome, especially on features you would find useful while trying to quit an addiction or improve your discipline.
Thanks.
My goal with StopAddict is to keep it minimal and genuinely helpful without turning it into another source of distraction. If you have thoughts on features that would make this more effective, or if you think XP and streak tracking would or wouldn’t help, I’d love to hear your perspective.
