What it is
I WILL is a free app for people in recovery and the people who show up with them. You check in, the people you chose see it, and the record stays.
Works in your browser today. The iPhone app is in private testing and is not on the App Store yet.
Who it's for
What you can do
Nothing on this page is a preview or a roadmap. If it is described below, you can open the app right now and use it.
Write a line about your day, and add a photo or a place if you want to. Check-ins are appended, not edited — once one is posted you can't change it. Delete one and it leaves your own timeline, but in a circle its place in the feed stays, marked as deleted rather than quietly closing up.
Start a circle for the handful of people who should see your check-ins. A circle you create is invite-only, and its posts, reactions and messages stay with its members. One exception, and it's yours to make: ticking "Also post to personal profile" on a check-in puts that one on your profile page, which anyone can open.
Name something you're working toward, break it into milestones, and watch the day grid fill in as you show up. Miss a day and it stays a gap — nothing resets.
Search in-person meetings near a place, filtered by day, format and distance. Listings come from public directories, so coverage is uneven — some cities are thin.
Check in when you arrive at a meeting and out when you leave. That produces a record with real timestamps, and a link you can share if you choose to.
Join a shared challenge and post proof for each day of it — a photo or a short video — alongside other people doing the same one. Free to join.
What it doesn't do
Some of this is a deliberate design choice. Some of it simply is not built yet. Both are worth saying out loud, because an accountability app that hides its edges is not one.
No streak you have to keep
Missing a day takes nothing away and tells nobody. Goals can show a streak if you turn one on, and losing it costs you nothing.
No public failure
There is no wall of who fell off, and no notification telling your circle that you didn't check in.
No punishment for falling behind
Challenges and creator pages do have leaderboards, ranked on things like completions, submissions and streaks — what you post to a challenge, not your everyday check-ins. Sliding down one costs you nothing. There is no penalty, no strike, and nothing is taken away.
Nothing to buy
No subscription, no in-app purchase, no paid tier. There is no way to pay for anything in the app today.
No ads, and no sale of your data
The app carries no advertising, and the privacy policy states plainly that your personal data is not sold. It is linked at the bottom of this page.
No AI writing for you
A check-in is yours, in your words, and nothing is written for you. Text is screened automatically for safety, and so is every photo you attach — to a check-in, a profile, a circle, a challenge, or a proof record. A proof video is screened by sampling a frame from it.
On court-ordered attendance: people can share their own attendance records with anyone they choose, and those records carry real timestamps. But I WILL is not a compliance or court-reporting system, has no program or officer accounts, and does not verify anyone's identity on behalf of a third party.
Questions
No. The app is free, there is nothing to buy inside it, and no payment can be taken today.
No. You can sign in with an email address or with Apple, or continue anonymously and pick any display name. An anonymous account is tied to the device you made it on, so it may not be recoverable if you lose that device.
A personal check-in is private to you. A circle check-in is posted to the circle, so its current members can read it, and it can't be marked private. If you tick "Also post to personal profile" when you write it, it also appears on your profile page, which anyone with the link can open, signed in or not. Circles you create are invite-only, so the members are the people you gave the code to — the Discover list also carries open circles that anyone can join. Anything you share by link, such as a meeting attendance record, is shared because you chose to share it.
Nothing. There is no penalty, no lost progress and no announcement. A gap in the record is just a gap, and you can check in again the next day.
Public AA directory listings. Coverage varies a lot between cities, and some metro areas are thin. If a meeting is wrong, missing or has moved, email support@iwill.now.
It is in private testing and is not on the App Store yet. The web app works in your browser in the meantime. Email support@iwill.now if you want to be included in testing.
Yes — the screens, buttons and menus are in both, and you can switch languages in Settings. Two things stay in English either way: anything our server writes for you, notifications included, and the Privacy Policy and Terms linked at the bottom of this page.
Start
You don't need a plan, a streak or a photo. Write down what you did today, and there is a record of it.
