Summary
This study tests a smartphone app designed to help teenagers and young adults with alcohol or cocaine use disorder improve their self-control around substance-related cues. Researchers will recruit 210 participants aged 14 to 35 from treatment centers.

The goal is to see if the app is practical and helpful as an add-on to regular treatment.
