- Honest about what SobrNav is
Free, with no treatment-center ads
The first honest reason to choose SobrNav is what it doesn't do. It's free to use, and it doesn't sell your attention to treatment centers or detox marketers. If you've ever searched for a meeting online and landed on a page of paid rehab ads dressed up as help, you know how disorienting that can be when you're already struggling.
SobrNav keeps the focus on free, community-run recovery — the kind that has kept people sober for decades. AA and NA meetings cost nothing, and the tool that helps you find them shouldn't cost anything or push you toward a sale either. What you see is meetings, not advertisements.
One directory for both AA and NA
Most official locators cover a single program. SobrNav brings AA and NA together in one searchable place, so you don't have to bounce between websites depending on what you're recovering from. It lists tens of thousands of meetings nationwide, including in-person groups, online Zoom meetings, and hybrid meetings that offer both at once.
Meeting data is aggregated from public directories and refreshed regularly. Because listings can change, check the live app for current times, and treat official AA and NA sources as authoritative. Browse the AA or NA directory by state and city, or search everything at once on the map.
A live map and filters that actually help
Finding a meeting isn't just about a list — it's about the right meeting, close enough to get to, at a time that works. SobrNav's live map sorts meetings by distance from you, and the filters let you narrow by what matters:
- Day and time of day — morning, afternoon, evening, or something happening today.
- Format — in person, online, or hybrid.
- Groups — women's, men's, LGBTQ+, and young people's meetings.
Each meeting page shows the schedule, address or join link, and directions, so you can go from "I need a meeting" to walking in the door with as few taps as possible.
A community layer, not just a lookup
Where SobrNav goes further than a plain finder is what happens around the meeting. Members can review meetings and share practical tips, so you get a sense of a room before you ever walk in. You can save favorites, add friends, and message people you meet in recovery — connection is what makes sobriety stick, and the app is built to support it.
There's also a built-in sobriety tracker with milestone badges and anniversary celebrations, plus optional reminders for the meetings you save. It works great right in your phone's browser, so there's nothing heavy to install.
Optional AI support when you need it
For signed-in members, SobrNav includes Sobr AI — a recovery-support chat that can talk things through and suggest meetings when you're not sure where to start. It's a helpful nudge, especially late at night or between meetings, not a replacement for a sponsor, a therapist, or crisis care.
If you're ever in danger or crisis, call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Sobr AI is there for the ordinary hard moments — the ones where you just need someone to point you toward a room full of people who understand.
Honest about what SobrNav is
SobrNav is a finding-and-support tool built by people who take recovery seriously. It is not a treatment program, not medical advice, and not affiliated with AA World Services or NA World Services. It won't promise you an outcome, because no honest recovery tool can. What it can do is remove the friction between you and the next meeting.
If that's what you're looking for, start now: search AA and NA meetings near you, or see whether AA or NA fits your situation if you're not sure where to begin.
