“We decided to try this out as my partner needed more accountability than what I was able to give on my own. My partner works from home, and I do not, so they were home alone for long stretches of time. We are one month in, and this has helped our relationship so much. They know that they have scheduled tests throughout the day, so when they get the urge to order alcohol, they know that there will be a test coming and do not do it. I have also scheduled random times in the app, and like having the ability to help them be accountable.”
“It works fine for the most part, I suppose. However, it does end up registering alcohol readings after eating certain fruits—like watermelon or citrus—which isn’t exactly reassuring if you’re relying on it for legal accuracy.”
“Finally we are able to sleep at night without wondering if our adult child is drinking. Fortunately he has been compliant and sober, but without the BACtrack we would be clueless. Thanks.”
“This has been a great way to keep my motivation for personal accountability up. To be able to prove to myself and others that sobriety is being maintained. Being able to print off a full history to show proof feels great”
“My wife has decided to end our marriage and blames my drinking.
Although we’re currently going through divorce, I now have the ability to prove I’m not drinking.”
“The device is very small and convenient to take anywhere as needed. Seems to be very accurate.
Initial setup with the phone (Android in our case) is very simple - anybody used to using a smartphone will have no trouble.
Very easy and quick for a monitor user to request a test, as well for the tester user to respond to the request. Additionally, the tester user can initiate their own test any time they wish and the result and record of the test is still made available to the monitor(s) via the View app.
The BACTrack View device and service is also much more affordable than the main competition who charges for their device up front as well as a more expensive service!”
