App Description
Pause gambling urges for 10 minutes. Calm support, and care.
🫧 A quiet place to pause when gambling urges hit.
You don’t need another lecture.
You don’t need someone telling you to “just stop.”
You need something that stays — calmly, without judgment — until the wave passes.
That’s Hold On.

③ A short check-in
A lightweight reflection to help you understand what happened — without pressure.
