You're reading this on the website of one of the two apps being compared. We'll name what the other one does better anyway — you'll find out within a week regardless.
Brainbuddy's 100-day programme is one of the good ones — the daily-task rhythm genuinely works. Two things to weigh: it's porn only, and after the trial there's no free way to keep going.
The heart of Brainbuddy is a 100-day program: daily tasks, breathing and mindfulness exercises, journaling, and a progress system that makes each day feel like it counts — many users mention the growing "Life Tree" as the thing that kept them coming back. There's a supportive community inside, and the whole experience is built around momentum: do today's piece, come back tomorrow.
Paid subscription after a short trial — check their site for current pricing
Brainbuddy is porn-only and subscription-only — after the trial, essentially everything sits behind the paywall. If you want to try the daily-program way of working without paying first, or your budget is already stretched, that's a real consideration.
It's also built for one person on the journey. If a partner knows and is hurting — and with this habit, the partner's hurt is its own storm — there's no part of Brainbuddy for them.
Take the part Brainbuddy gets right first, because it matters: doing one small thing today and coming back tomorrow is how this actually changes. We built on the same idea — a daily lesson, a few minutes, ninety days of them, with audio so you can listen on a walk instead of sitting down to it.
Where we differ is the shape of the problem. Porn is one of thirteen tracks here, and you can run more than one. That matters more than it sounds, because for a lot of people it isn't one habit — it's the late nights, and the drinking that goes with them, and the scrolling that starts it. Working one front while the others run costs you the war slowly.
And the money. Every lesson, day 1 to 90, on every track is free, permanently, along with every recovery tool, the journal, the reminders, the whole partner side and the Climb. Not a trial that ends — free. If your budget is stretched, you can do real work here without paying anything.
Free, forever. Every lesson, every tool.

Pick this if the habit has company, if you want to start without a card, or if someone knows and is carrying it alone. Their hurt gets a door here.
