AA 4th Step 1.5

The free "Vault" app was developed by members of an anonymous recovery program as a tool for securely and conveniently entering their 4th Step Inventory information. This app allows users to complete their inventory by column or row, providing ease of organization. It includes inventories for Resentment, Fear, and Sexual Conduct, offering different prompt lists to assist in recalling important information. Users can enter their answers by typing or speaking, and there are easy check-box options available for "Parts of Self Affected." Moreover, the app features a "Set Daily Reminder" option using push notifications, allowing users to stay on track with their inventory process. Additionally, users are able to email their inventories securely in PDF format to themselves or their sponsors, or print them out in a horizontal spreadsheet style for easy reading and organization.

One notable aspect of the Vault app is its emphasis on security. The app utilizes Vault Code protection at all times, ensuring that only the user has access to their inventory. Furthermore, all data is securely stored on the user's device without any cloud storage that could be vulnerable to hacking.

The user-friendly design of the Vault 4th Step Inventory App allows users to enter their inventory information in a logical step-by-step manner. The resulting inventory spreadsheet resembles well-known 4th Step guides available online, providing familiarity and ease of use. A key advantage of this app is its flexibility; users can work on their 4th step anytime and anywhere they are free and in a safe environment, rather than being restricted to their homes with traditional pen and paper methods.

The creators of the app made a decision to adhere closely to the original text from the Big Book for the actual questions in order to provide a consistent experience for users. They opted not to reword the questions as some other 4th Step guides have done.

It's important to note that while the app offers a digital solution for entering inventory information, it is still compatible with traditional pen and paper methods if a user's sponsor prefers that approach. The app's versatility allows users to collect their inventory information digitally and then manually transfer it to paper if needed.

Please be aware that the Vault app has not been officially reviewed or approved by the anonymous recovery program. The program does not endorse or approve any specific apps or individuals. All quotes within the app are sourced from the 1st edition of the Big Book. This app was developed by members for members, and its availability as a free tool worldwide is thanks to the generous support of those members. It's important to remember that the primary purpose of this app, and the anonymous recovery program itself, is to help individuals maintain sobriety and support fellow alcoholics.
