Great app, a couple of tweaks and I’d give it five stars
This app is great. It doesn’t give me pep talks. It doesn’t show me gross pictures. What it does is give me plan based on how I smoke now. While that’s great and the algorithm is nice, there a a couple of things I’d like to see added.
First, I’d like to determine not only the start date of my plan, but also the finish date. I have a specific goal date and while it means my quitting will be less gradual (and yes, a bit more painful) I’d would like the freedom to choose that. I’ve had to go in and cheat the system by altering how many cigarettes I currently smoke until the pace picked up enough to,get me closer to my goal. I shouldn’t have to work that hard. And yes, I’d pay for that.
Second, some of us have much longer days than the app recognizes. Limiting how many smoking hours I can select also makes this more difficult than it needs to be. I actually, consistently live on 4-5 hours of sleep.
The last is that I’d like to see a persistent alarm rather than a notification. If I am not near my phone and miss a notification, skipping isn’t what I’d like to do. As intended, I do want the nicotine dependency gradually diminished. An alarm to keep me on track would be super helpful.
But, of the apps I’ve tried, this one is the simplest, most user-friendly, and the most helpful I’ve found. It delivers an actual plan to follow. If I could customize it a bit, it would be the perfect app to kick the habit.
