Calyvro is an app for people recovering from addiction and compulsive behaviour. You talk in small groups under a name you choose, and when things get hard, one tap lets them know you need someone.
Calyvro isn’t in the stores yet. These become links on the day it is.
Calyvro is peer support: people with similar experiences helping each other. It isn't therapy, and it isn't an emergency service.
You join groups around what you're working through. There's no public feed, no followers and nothing to perform for.
You sign up with an email address and pick a pseudonym. Nobody asks for your real name, and nobody in the app sees your address.
"I need support now" sends a quiet ping to the groups you choose, one after another. The moment somebody says they're here, the rest aren't asked. There's nothing to write.
And some things just for you: a daily check-in, a private journal, and things you set yourself to get through. Nobody else sees them, and nothing is turned into a score or a leaderboard.
The same app you'll download, shown with made-up names.
Check in with one tap, and see the last two weeks in a single line. If you like, count the days since a start date you choose. Only you can see it, a missed day is just a missed day, and a hard day never gets a number.
Browse by what you're working through: alcohol, drugs, nicotine, gambling, gaming, compulsive sexual behaviour, social media and more. Or search, look inside, and join when it feels right.
Using an app like this says something about you. These aren't promises on a website; they're decisions built into how Calyvro works.
What you write in a group (messages, photos and voice notes) is encrypted on your phone. Our servers store it but can't read it.
Moderators only see a message when a member reports it, and then only that message.
No advertising, no analytics, and nothing that measures what you read or how long you stay. Your data is never sold.
Your lock screen never shows what somebody wrote or which group it came from.
Download a complete copy from the app at any time, or delete your account there, straight away and without asking anyone.
Servers in Germany, files in the EU. The one exception: on Android, notifications are delivered through Google, and they carry no words.
To be plain about the limits: encryption protects a group from the outside, not from its own members. What you share, your group can read.
Read the privacy policy →People who use an app like this have more to lose than a streaming account. So here's how to tell a real message from us.
Not by email, not in the app, and not in a conversation with a moderator. Anybody who asks for it isn't us.
Real emails from us come only from the calyvro.app domain, never have attachments, and only arrive when you asked for something, such as a password reset. If in doubt, don't click the link: open the app instead. Anything that really comes from us, you can do there.
Calyvro is peer support, not an emergency service, and it can't send anyone to you. These people can, day and night.
