    How BreakDawn works

    Wake. Reach. Rise.

    One rhythm, repeated. The app does the remembering so you don't have to.

    1. Step 1 · Wake

      Start each day with a Dawn check-in

      Mood, intention, one small win to aim for. 60 seconds, and Ikki remembers.

    2. Step 2 · Reach

      When a craving hits, reach out, anytime

      Ikki, your Circle, Craving tools or the Crisis Lifeline. No awkward phone calls.

    3. Step 3 · Rise

      Rise into the next day, then the next

      Streaks, milestones, and patterns you can actually see. Your dawn, building.

    See what you could save

    BreakDawn calculates real savings from what you actually spend. If that's £25 a week, that's about £1,300 a year.

    Wherever you are with drinking, you are welcome here.

    Cutting back. Taking a break. Done forever. Slipping and starting again. There's no badge to earn, no number to hit before you belong. BreakDawn meets you on the day you have now. Not the one you wish you had.

    A CBT informed self-help program. One short session a day: learn, try, reflect. Gentle structure when motivation alone isn't enough.

    23 craving tools that actually work

    Urge surfing, HALT, Play the Tape, breathwork, grounding, cold-water reset, delay games. All timed, guided, and rooted in CBT/ACT and relapse prevention techniques.

    Solfeggio frequency tracks and a guardian timer to carry you through when nothing else helps.

    Sober Social

    BreakDawn is the companion there for you when you need support.

    Honest questions.

    Is this a replacement for AA, therapy, or a doctor?+

    No. BreakDawn is a companion - it sits alongside whatever else is working for you. For medical detox, a doctor is essential.

    How much does BreakDawn cost?+

    Nothing. Every feature is free for everyone, with no subscription and no card required.

    Can I use it without giving an email?+

    Yes - most of the app works locally. You only need an email to sync across devices.

    What if I slip?+

    We log it without judgement, reset gently, and Ikki helps you understand what happened. Slips are part of the path, not the end.

    Your next morning is waiting.

    Two minutes to set up. The next hard night arrives whether you're ready or not. Let's make sure you are.

    Free for everyone. No card needed.
