GroupReady’s original curriculum is grounded in evidence-based behavioral-health practice. The complete current curriculum—including the two Free groups—has undergone independent clinical review. Read about the curriculum and its development.
Do I need an internet connection?
Core sessions and tools work locally on your device. An internet connection may be needed to purchase or restore Pro, refresh subscription status, open external links, or use a network-connected printing or sharing destination.
Are Participant Handouts included?

Can I print or export materials?

What is included Free?

Does GroupReady store participant information?
The app has no participant profiles, attendance system, or clinical record storage. Local data includes preferences, favorites, optional recent-plan history, and your group schedule. Do not use support email to send participant names, identifying information, protected health information, clinical records, or confidential treatment information.
Can I use it in substance-use treatment?
GroupReady includes material relevant to adult substance-use groups. A qualified facilitator must decide whether a session fits the setting, the people in the room, and the organization’s policies. It is not a treatment protocol or a claim of compliance with a clinical standard.
Can I use it on iPhone and iPad?
GroupReady is designed for iPhone and iPad. Device and operating-system requirements will be listed on the App Store when the app is available.
How are subscriptions handled?
Apple processes Pro purchases and handles subscription billing. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled through Apple. Use Restore Purchases in the app to check existing access. Get purchase and subscription help.
