UrgeWise

UrgeWise is a private, gamified tracking app built specifically for people living with body-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs) like skin picking (dermatillomania), hair pulling (trichotillomania), nail biting, and more. BFRBs affect an estimated 1 in 20 people. They're not habits you can simply "stop." They're deeply ingrained responses to stress, boredom, and emotional overwhelm. The first step isn't willpower. It's awareness. UrgeWise gives you the tools to build that awareness — one log at a time. FEATURES 🎯 THREE ENTRY TYPES, ONE CLEAR PICTURE • Urge — You felt the pull and didn't act on it. The most powerful entry you can log. • Minor Mishap — A small slip that doesn't reset your goals or streaks. • Major Incident — Logged honestly, it's an awareness victory that helps you identify your triggers. 📊 UNDERSTAND YOUR PATTERNS Charts by location, body part, and time reveal when and where your urges spike. Turn vague feelings into real insight. 🔥 INCIDENT-FREE STREAKS Build streaks and watch your progress compound. The app tracks your current streak live and saves completed streaks to your history. 🏆 GOALS & ACHIEVEMENTS Set meaningful time-based goals — hours, days, or weeks incident-free — and earn locked achievements when you reach them. ⭐ GAMIFIED SCORING Earn Urge Catching Points, Pick Free Points, and Awareness Points. Your daily score reflects real effort, not just outcomes. 💬 THOUGHTS & FEELINGS LOG Capture what's going on emotionally in the moment. Over time, the patterns in your thoughts become just as revealing as the behaviour itself. ⚙️ FULLY CUSTOMISABLE Set your BFRB type and personalise your body part and location labels. The app adapts to your specific situation. 🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data is yours. UrgeWise is built on secure, encrypted infrastructure. Nothing is shared or sold. EVERY STEP FORWARD COUNTS The battle isn't just about stopping — it's about catching urges before they become incidents. UrgeWise rewards you for both, because awareness is the first step to change. Log an urge instead of acting on it? That's a win. When you're brave enough to log an incident? That's an awareness victory. When you go 6 hours without any major incidents? That's another win, automatically tracked by the app. Everything about this app is designed to keep you motivated to monitor and manage your impulse control disorder over time. Stack enough wins and you may start to feel — for the first time in a long time — that you are actually on the road to recovery. Whether you're looking for a skin picking app, a trichotillomania tracker, a nail biting app, or support for any other BFRB — UrgeWise is built for you.

BUILT BY SOMEONE WHO GETS IT UrgeWise was created by Richard, who has lived with skin-picking disorder for over 30 years. This isn't a generic wellness app. Every feature was designed around the real, daily experience of living with a BFRB. Given how expensive other treatment options can be, this app offers a low-risk, high-reward solution that can act as an immensely powerful ally on your journey to full recovery, with the ultimate goal of achieving normality rather than perfection.
