Show HN: StopAddict – Quit addictions by leveling up every day you stay clean

Hey HN,

I built StopAddict, a minimalist app that helps you quit addictions or bad habits by turning the process into a simple XP and level-up system.

Every day you stay clean, you earn XP. If you relapse, you don’t lose everything — just your momentum. The goal is to make progress feel tangible, without guilt, spam, or pressure.

⸻

Why I built it:

Most addiction apps felt bloated, medical, or too serious. I just wanted a quiet space to track discipline — like a gamified habit tracker with no fluff.

I’m 18 and just getting started in SaaS. This is one of my first projects built solo in public (Next.js + MongoDB + Vercel).

⸻

Features: • Track multiple addictions (ex: nicotine, porn, social media) • XP system + streaks + level • Anonymous & mobile-friendly • Dark mode (because of course)

⸻

Upcoming: • Milestones & badges • Daily reflections • Optional community support (opt-in only)

⸻

Would love feedback: • Does this resonate with you? • What would make it more helpful without overcomplicating it? • Are XP/streak mechanics motivating or too gamified?
