Bet-free evenings, with something else to do.
The bet on the game, the pokies after work, one more trade at night. Extra Life shows up in your evening window with a nudge from your pal and something else to do, then takes one tap to log a bet-free day. It never asks how much you bet and never counts money.
Free for 7 days for new subscribers, then $9.99 a month or $59.99 a year, renewing until you cancel. Cancel in the App Store at least a day before the week ends and you pay nothing. No account, no ads.
Set up for betting, pokies or trading.
When it's hardest
Your window is 6pm to 9pm to start with. Move it to the morning, the afternoon, the evening, late at night or any two hours of your own.
One tap to log
"Bet-free" or "Had a bet", logged that night from Today, the notification, Control Centre or Siri. A slip resets the count without a lecture. Forget to log and the streak pauses for up to 14 days instead of breaking.
A nudge that changes daily
148 nudges written for betting, pokies and trading, plus the gentle-day and plan lines shared by all six. Nothing repeats inside 60 days and none of it ever lectures.
Pick who you're doing it for.
For betting, pokies or trading you pick from Brain, Heart, Gut and Bones. Your pal sends your nudge, cheers a clear day and never gets sick or sad. Six more join as your best run reaches 7, 14, 30, 45, 60 and 90 days.
On Today your pal shares 15 short facts, each from Australian government and government-funded sources. Progress shows the bet-free mornings you've woken to.
Something else to do instead.
These start you off, each with a smaller version for a hard night. Keep the ones you like, add your own or pick from 50 ideas, from a long shower to a call home.
- Call someone or Text someone
- Phone away or Charge it across the room
- Board games or One round
- Reading or One page
- Music or One song, loud
Pick tonight's before your window opens and Plan the week lets you set up the evenings ahead: the swaps, a time to leave by and the line you'll say.
Six ways through an urge and five quick games.
Tap Mindfulness and your pal stays with you: 4-7-8 breathing for about a minute, ride it out for 10 minutes with your pal talking you through, 5-4-3-2-1 grounding, a five-minute body scan read aloud, white noise while the screen is open (in the next update) or the reason you wrote down. Or play Catch Me, Slide Puzzle, Clear Out, Puck Duel or Bop Me for a few minutes on something else. None of it logs a thing. See them all
No odds, no prizes, no spins.
Nothing in Extra Life is won by chance. The mini games have no prizes, no coins and no random rewards. Coins are earned only for what you actually do, at fixed amounts. Turn on discreet notifications and words like bet, punt, pokies and odds stay off your lock screen.
Everything else comes with it.
Six daily habits with streaks of their own: exercise, eating well, water, sleep, unwind and relaxation. Your own gym plan with 44 exercises, 18 guided yoga and pilates sequences, coins and daily quests for your pal, milestones and keepsakes, weekly stories and a crew of up to five friends. All in the one subscription, with nothing locked inside it. What's included
Free support, a tap away.
