## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Reframe is a phone app built around a 160-day program for cutting down on alcohol, with tracking, a community and a craving toolkit. It has no free plan, only a 7-day trial, and at about $100 a year it costs well over the category middle. The vendor says it is not made to treat alcohol use disorder.

- **Value for money: D.** $100 a year, about $8.33 a month, against a category middle of $4.16 and a dearest tenth that starts at $9.99. The App Store shows annual prices up to $119.99 and Thrive Coaching costs extra.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** No free plan. A 7-day trial for new users, and the pages read do not say whether a card is needed.
- **Features: C.** A 160-day program, progress tracking, community, craving tools and courses. It does that job in full, but it is one narrow job, drinking less.
- **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record, but you install an app and follow the program with nothing to set up.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** iOS and Android only. The FAQ says a web version is in the works, and no integrations are listed.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Reframe you could make: habit tracking. What surrounds it you could not. The 3 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 44 of the 48 other habit trackers grade higher. It costs $100 a year.

- You could make: Habit tracking: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: A members' space with posts, chat and events that people keep coming back to.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: People on the other end: coaches. No app builder makes those.
