Track your alcohol use
Watch Your BAC helps keep you and your friends safe when you decide to have a drink.The Concept
Watch Your BAC is a program of DACCO (Drug Abuse Comprehensive Coordinating Office, Inc.) in Tampa, Florida, in partnership with local colleges and universities. It is funded by the Florida Department of Children and Families. It is a multi-award nominated non-profit organization with a history of contributing to the Tampa Bay community.
The Product
Powered Labs designed and produced the Watch Your BAC app, a social app to monitor your alcohol consumption by entering your height, gender, weight, and each drink you consume. The app will help you “stay in the green” and alert you as you approach the “danger zone.” In our updated version, Watch Your BAC allows you to create parties with your friends, designate a driver, and watch each other’s blood alcohol level.
Track Every Sip
Watch Your BAC makes it easy to keep track of every drink you have. Just swipe through the glasses to the beverage you just finished and add it to your record. Your BAC meter will update with your current BAC. You can also set a limit for yourself before your first drink. If you pass your limit you’ll be alerted so you know when it’s time to get some water.
Keep tabs on your friends’ tab
Heading out with a group of friends. Start a private group so you can have each other’s BAC’s. See each persons BAC and if they have reached or exceeded their limit. If you’ll need a ride you can even pick a Designated Driver and post a short message to let the group know the plan for the night.In-Depth
