Recovery toolkit
Everything you need when willpower gets thin.
Cold Turkey combines the practical layers people usually need across separate apps: friction, tracking, reflection, coaching, and a plan for urges.
AI recovery coach
Get structured prompts for urges, reflection, and next actions when you need calm support fast.
Content blocker support
Add friction around adult content and high-risk browsing paths so the first impulse is not effortless.
Panic button
Open a quick urge protocol for breathing, replacement actions, and a ten-minute reset.
Daily check-ins
Journal mood, triggers, wins, and lessons so your plan gets more accurate each week.
Progress analytics
See patterns across urges, time of day, milestones, and relapse risk windows.
Science-backed method
Change the loop, not your character.
The app focuses on cue awareness, friction, replacement behavior, reinforcement, and reflection. It is practical behavior design for the moments that usually happen privately.
Interrupt
Slow down the automatic loop
Blocking, distance, and a short pause create enough space for the deliberate brain to come back online.
Replace
Give the urge somewhere else to go
Cold Turkey pairs friction with simple replacement actions: breathe, move, journal, text, shower, walk, or leave the room.
Reinforce
Make progress visible
Streaks, milestones, and check-ins turn small repeated choices into momentum you can see.
Reflect
Learn from slips without shame
Relapse reflection helps identify the trigger, access path, and next plan so one hard moment does not define the whole recovery.
Flagship path
Built first for porn recovery. Flexible enough for other hard habits.
Cold Turkey is commercially focused on helping people quit porn and adult-content loops, while the same recovery architecture supports alcohol, nicotine, cannabis, binge eating, and future habits.
"I needed something I could open after a close call without feeling judged. The check-ins made the pattern obvious."
"The streak mattered, but the craving notes were what helped me see when I was most likely to cave."
"It gave me a plan for evenings instead of another app that only counted days."
