HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (223 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ There is just a blank white screen when I open the app. Totally useless.

WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • Would be nice if it was free 3★, Jun 17, 2026
  • My only critique would be that I wish I could join several groups or make groups later. 5★, Mar 9, 2026
  • It would be cool to have a feature that could send them a private notification or message to encourage them to get back into it 5★, Mar 9, 2026
  • I really wish they would use a different bible translation for scriptures as well. 3★, Feb 10, 2026
  • It would be nice to see it as a true drawing and be live on the app and accurately show the past winners. 3★, Nov 15, 2025
  • I feel bad even reviewing it publicly like this but it would be nice to have that change implemented. 5★, Aug 12, 2025
  • Especially when you add the stigma of how we can perceive other people's feelings of not only their own trauma; the viscous cycle of my own misuse led me to such a beautiful place and I am so grateful for recovery. 5★, Jun 3, 2025
  • I just need a free porn blocker, I don't have money to pay for this. 4★, Apr 19, 2025

★★★★★ I was so excited to break free, I downloaded the app and walked through the beginning stages, saw the good reviews..
★★★★★ This has open my mind a lot and it gives u a great amount of information to the point where corn sounds harmful and not worth it.

12 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ What I love about the app is the outreach and support it offers from like-struggling people.
★★★★★ I even contacted support and they said they would look into the issue but never got back to me.
★★★★★ I'm gonna need extra support besides this because it's too abrasive for me
Looks great4%

10 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ Especially when you add the stigma of how we can perceive other people's feelings of not only their own trauma; the viscous cycle of my own misuse led me to such a beautiful place and I am so grateful for recovery.
★★★★★ Only thing I would tweak come down to personal preferences like the UI or the slow speaking audio bits.
★★★★★ Blocks safe and clean apps that has nothing to do with keywords,websites,and triggers
Fun, addictive4%

10 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ This app (and live meetings) really can help and keeps me 'above water' with my sex addictive behaviors.
★★★★★ Though I am far from finished with my porn-free journey, Brainbuddy has made every step of the way enjoyable!
★★★★★ I am enjoying the app and it is helping me think more actively about my addiction and overcoming it.

7-Day Trial? Immediate Charge

I signed ip for seven-day trial and it immediately charged me for a month. Then it later said, on the same day, your trial is over and you need to pay for service. So I not only got charged I also did not get the services I reluctantly laid for.

★★★★★Sep 17, 2026
A second chance

I’m picking up Brainbuddy for the second time. The first time was about 10 years ago. It’s not the only thing that I’m doing to recover from this addiction, but I’m hopeful that it will be a strong asset.

★★★★★Sep 8, 2026

Old News

I’m pretty sure nobody is actively managing this app anymore. You don’t get any response from support. There are no drawing winners announced every month although you still “earn tickets” for the drawing. Now I can’t even use the app because it’s giving me a server error. So, I’m forced to cancel my subscription. That said, it is (or was) a very good app. My rating is based on its current status. At its peak, it was easily 5 stars.

REVIEWS FROM THE BRAINBUDDY COMMUNITY "Now I am controlled, stable, focused, and feel super confident. When you save your energy up, you get that unconquerable will where what would have been a huge wall for your old self becomes a little knee-high fence you can step over." "I feel a different person. I'm much more talkative and aware in social settings. At work I'm on top of everything instead of forgetting things and asking people to repeat themselves. It's been over a decade since I started struggling with these habits and this now feels who I truly am." "The clarity for me was extremely noticeable and you will likely feel like a different person. It gave me hope that there is nothing totally wrong with me. Just having that experience of clarity and happiness can be a powerful thing." "Confidence. When I walk down the street I don't feel uncomfortable anymore. I can speak to anyone without feeling shy. It's not that I have become arrogant, I just regard myself on equal footing with others where before I always felt inferior. My social anxiety has completely flown out the window."
