How can we help?

Quick answers first. If something is broken or missing, tell us and we will look at it.

Reports are public on GitHub, so leave out anything personal. Say which iPhone and iOS version you use and what you expected to happen.

Common questions

Do I need an account?

No. The app works straight away with no name or email. You only sign in with Apple if you want to join a Crew.

How do I log a drink without opening the app?

Start a night, then use the Live Activity on the Lock Screen, the Home Screen widget, or the Control Center controls (Log a drink, Log a water, Start a night). Each is one tap.

What is the Night Score?

A score out of 100 for the night, built from things you did: showing up and logging, pacing, water, staying at your number, stopping by last call, and planning ahead. Going over costs points. It never zeroes the night.

I went over my plan. What happens?

The night turns lilac, not red, and the score reflects it. Nothing resets. Logging it in full even earns a badge. Next night you are back on plan.

I forgot to log something. Can I fix it?

Yes. Open any night from the Week tab to change a drink's time or size, add one, or remove one. The night is re-scored.

What does my Crew see?

Your Night Scores, badges and dry nights. Never how many drinks you had. There are no comments and no leaderboards, only kudos.

Does it estimate blood alcohol?

No. Half Pour shows your pace and the time since your last drink. If you've been drinking, get a ride.

How do I delete my data?

Settings has two options: Delete your account removes everything from our database, and Erase data on this phone clears the device.

If drinking is getting hard to manage

Half Pour is a tracker, not a medical device, and not a treatment for alcohol use disorder. If drinking is hurting you or someone close to you, these free services are a good place to start.

In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
