Affect: Addiction Recovery v4.16.0
Affect TherapeuticsAbout this app
Developer Description
Beat alcohol and drug addiction with a revolutionary treatment program in an app
Through our scientifically-proven approach, you can learn to manage, reduce, and quit alcohol, cannabis, stimulants like meth and cocaine, opioids like heroin, or pain killers and other prescription medications. Affect gives you the support you need to get sober, improve your mental health, and build healthy habits.
The program is private, confidential, convenient, highly effective, delivered entirely through your smartphone, and covered by insurance. The addiction recovery app is free to use without enrolling in the treatment program.
Many people enroll in Affect's program to get professional support while attending 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA) or SMART Recovery.
Sobriety is not a requirement. Affect helps people who struggle with relapses. Counselors work with people on their deeper issues where recovery coaches and peer communities fall short. Affect's program is also used by people who leave detox or inpatient residential rehab clinics to continue their recovery journeys.
There are sober apps where you go it alone. There are rehab clinics where you go away. There is nothing else like Affect.
► Rewards for successful participation in treatment, including for staying sober.
► Group and individual telehealth counseling with licensed counselors who are specialists in addiction and mental health.
► Medications to help you manage cravings, depression, and anxiety. Suboxone prescribed in some states.
► Support and resources to improve your life, including help finding healthcare, employment, and housing.
► Gamification tracks sobriety, helps manage your schedule, and speeds progress with tools like a sober counter and tasks that build healthy habits.
► Caring and private community offers support and understanding at all times.
Affect works better. Our rewards system is based on decades of research on successful behavior change and technology. People decrease use by 50% in the first month. Affect's program results in outcomes that are twice as effective as traditional clinical models. Recovery isn’t painful.
We accept many insurance plans including Medicare and Medicaid, which fully covers treatment for qualified members. Please see our website for the full list of plans we accept. There are no subscription fees or ads. Your private information is kept secure and is not shared with any third parties or online trackers.
Affect is a licensed treatment provider, accredited by CARF International. Our research was supported by grants from The National Institute on Drug Abuse and The National Institutes of Health (see our website for more information). You can trust us with your recovery.
When you are ready to reduce or stop drinking or using drugs, enrolling in Affect's revolutionary digital addiction treatment program gives you the expert help you need to truly succeed without having to go to a rehab clinic.
We beat the deadly game of addiction by changing the rules. Reward your recovery with Affect.

Affect: Addiction Recovery users say on Google Play
I used affect when I got a DUI drug possession the staff is awesome it's a reward-based system which is new and refreshing. passing drug test and completing assignments and going ahead in further activities in the app you can make more money. this place on top of being really good is recognized by the corrections system and the DOT !! ive been to a couple "treatment" places but this one I actually wanted to do it and so I did. healthy and free
okay as a treatment program this is actually really good. but they don't work well with your PO and they're not easy to contact when you have an issue
I started this with the understanding that they would monitor my prescription and provide refills. but come time for a refill, they tell me they can't fill it. I am about to lapse on my medication.
you cant ever talk to anybody about important things or appointments. When you call it says leave a voicemail but nobody ever reuturns a call!Besides that i like how convieneant it is
Affect is listed as available in my state (and 8 others) on my health insurance portal. 'State' was the 3rd question I answered during sign up. Yet, it was only after collecting sensitive personal information and having me upload front & back of my insurance card that the app informed me care actually isn't available in my state. Wow, really?
