The premise of My.Drinkaware is that if you measure your drinking, you'll naturally start to cut down. You may not realise just how far over the guidelines you are. If you worry about your drinking (indeed, if you ever prefix 'drinking' with 'my'), chances are you know you drink more the recommended guidelines.

Sleep Cycle will not help you go to bed earlier or sleep longer - but it will make you feel like you have.
