StopAposta

A barrier against betting sites that has a guardian holding the key and help at the moment of craving.

Available on Android; iPhone coming soon

The problem

People with a gambling problem have betting sites one tap away and, in the moment of craving, rarely have anyone around.

People with a gambling problem and those who support them.

01
Shield
Blocks Brazilian and international betting sites and apps with a signed, regularly updated list. A dedicated search finds new mirror sites.
02
Guardian
A trusted person holds the key and only releases it after a cooling-off period. If someone tries to switch off or uninstall the protection, the guardian is alerted.
03
Three protection levels
Shield, Lock with Guardian and, on Android, the optional Fortress via a managed device: each person picks the level.
04
Conversation at the moment of craving
A conversational AI based on motivational interviewing supports the person in the moment. An Android feature of the paid plan.
05
Community with nicknames
Peer support with nicknames and moderation, free along with all the protection.
06
Days, savings and help
A counter for days without betting and for the money you kept. In a risk situation the app shows the CVV (188) and SAMU (192) helplines.
07
No empty promises
No app can prevent a full uninstall (it is an iOS and Android limit) and StopAposta says so clearly.
