The problem
You're not weak. You're outmatched.
Most gambling apps are built by the same people who design slot machines — down to the near-misses, the “cash out now” panic prompts, and the notifications timed to your payday. Billion-dollar companies engineered every pixel to keep you playing. Trappy is built to fight back.
How it works
A pause, right when it counts.
Block the apps that trigger you
Choose exactly which apps and sites get interrupted — no guessing, no all-or-nothing.
A mind game, not a lecture
When you try to open a shielded app, Trappy steps in with something quick to occupy your brain while the urge passes.
Journal that's actually yours
Daily texts that feel like a friend checking in — and a private space to track decisions, not just days.
You're not alone
Real meetings, real people, right in the app.
Find Gamblers Anonymous meetings near you — in person, virtual, or by phone — without digging through a directory that wasn't built for the moment you need it.
Join the resistance.
