Matchbox helps you moderate alcohol, smoking, spending and other habits using a simple monthly allowance system.
Free · Works on iPhone & Android · No app store needed
Instead of quitting cold turkey, Matchbox gives you a set number of “matches” for the month — one for each time you indulge. You light a match when you do, and watch how many you have left. Simple, visual, judgement-free.
Three steps. That's the whole app.
Choose your habit and how many you'll allow yourself each month or week.
Tap once each time you indulge. It takes a second and keeps you honest.
See what's left, build streaks, and get gentle email nudges when you're running low.
Matchbox installs straight from your browser — no app store required.
