About Armatillo

About the App

Armatillo is a specialized habit reversal tracker app designed specifically for those struggling with Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs). It was created by someone who has personal experience with BFRBs, understanding firsthand the challenges they present.

The app is built on the principles of Habit Reversal Training (HRT), a evidence-based approach to managing and reducing BFRBs. Armatillo is designed to complement professional treatment, serving as a daily companion tool to help users implement strategies learned through therapy or other BFRB management programs.

Key features of the app include trigger identification, personalized strategy development, and progress tracking - all core components of effective habit reversal therapy. While Armatillo is a powerful support tool, we recommend using it alongside professional guidance for best results.

Josef, Armatillo Developer

Meet the Developer

Armatillo was created by Josef, a developer and game developer based in Providence, Rhode Island. With personal experience with BFRBs, Josef designed Armatillo to be the app he wished existed during his own journey with habit reversal training.

Drawing from his background in both software development and game design, Josef focused on making Armatillo not just functional, but also engaging and supportive - featuring elements like Dill, the encouragement armadillo, to help users stay motivated.

Armatillo is currently in pre-alpha development. If you're interested in testing the app or learning more about our progress, we'd love to hear from you.
