### 3/5 — No descriptions for health measurements?

*2024-10-03*

There’s little arrows on the right of every health measurement, implying if you click it, itll say more. But instead it just crashes? It’s done this for years? Do you plan on resolving this issue? What’s the point of buying it, if it doesn’t even work?

### 2/5 — Not working right but great when it works

*2021-07-13*

Can’t access the community receive error message the couldn’t connect to server error messages please refresh. I’ve refreshed I’ve deleted the app and added it back. I’ve reached out to the developer with no luck. The support community is such an important part of the quit. I hope this gets fixed soon

Also when I click on the health icon for info on circulation or lung health the app fails and brings me back to the Home Screen.

The app is a great idea and a HUGE help in my quit. I’ve recommended it to many over the last few weeks. Now I’m embarrassed for recommending it as it’s not working.

### 2/5 — Crashes

*2018-10-07*

App is pretty neat. But the health tab...whenever I click on any of the progress bars...ie circulation , lung health, etc...the app crashed.  I’m only assuming that there is additional info past these clicks...sad that I paid for something that doesn’t seem to function properly.

### 2/5 — Help

*2018-09-28, version 2.44*

My option to tapper down to a quit date in the future is gone!! I need that part!!

### 2/5 — Crashing

*2018-06-11, version 2.44*

Keeps crashing when you tap the health option. I have the paid version also

### 3/5 — Good at first, but not for the long term

*2018-05-03*

I’m not one of those people who would say that this app saved my life or anything like that. I did use this app when I first quit smoking over 4 years ago. I liked that it would give me all these statistics about the progress I’ve made. In fact it was one of the ways I coped with cravings, distracting myself by doing the math.

I’ve since moved on from this app to another one that’s very similar, for a very simple reason: Every time I got a new phone, or, it seemed every few months, I would have to reenter all of my data. “I quit smoking in the past... on this date... I smoked this many cigarettes each day... they cost this much...” When I got to the point where I was trying to set my “quit date” (in the past) and had to scroll back four years *one.......... month......... at......... a..........time..........* I just gave up.

Now that I’m actually writing this I’m kind of shocked that after 4 1/2 years no one thought to make setting your quit date (in the past) easier to do.

### 2/5 — Great support to quit smoking!

*2018-04-13*

Would give it a five star just for the community. However giving it a 2 star because nothing really different between free and paid version. And should be more of a option to sign in besides Facebook. Also more updates would be helpful. This app lacks them compared to other quit smoking apps.

### 3/5 — $$

*2017-08-22*

Just downloaded today, not sure what he the paid app gets that the free one doesn't.  Be sure to check before you download.  Doesn't appear to be any way to get your money back if unsatisfied.

### 3/5 — Nubee

*2017-05-08, version 2.43*

Just started using BO. Wish I could converse with the community, but I don't trust or use ANY social media.

### 5/5 — Never Thought It Could Possibly Work

*2017-04-19*

.....but it did. 2 weeks tobacco free and part of a community of non-smokers. I see now why people talk about being so grateful.

### 5/5 — Truly life-changing

*2017-01-03*

This app's greatest feature is the super supportive global community of users. This app has probably saved my life. If you truly want to quit smoking and are willing to ask for help, everyone is here for you! Join!

### 1/5 — Not supported anymore

*2024-11-16*

Y’all need to come back and put this back together. I used it years ago. I fell off the wagon and I’m back again. I paid just to be able to see those meters running, saying how much better I would feel soon be nice to have the whole thing back

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2024-08-21, version 2.44*

Crashes all the time. No answer when trying to reach support.

### 1/5 — Really disappointing

*2023-01-24, version 2.44*

$9.99? You get absolutely nothing for your money. It wants you to sign in through Facebook to join the community, which I do not like. Why do you want access to my Facebook profile. And when I try to log in, it comes back with an error message. Total waste of money. Crap interface, no interactivity, pathetic overall. I’d like my money back.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2022-04-14, version 2.44*

This app needs to be taken off the App Store!  Clearing no one is bothering to fix any issues with crashing and it’s still for sale for the last three years!! Don’t buy this app!!!

### 1/5 — App broken for months

*2022-03-07, version 2.44*

Don’t pay as app is no longer supported. It is broken which is very sad as it has done so much good.

### 1/5 — DONT PAY DOESN’T WORK

*2022-02-07, version 2.44*

You have to link to Facebook and it’s been broken for months it won’t link!

### 1/5 — Wouldn’t waste my money

*2019-02-18, version 2.44*

Have paid for this app and it’s not worth the money. Find another app that’s free. Have tried communicating with App support but no response.

### 1/5 — Crashes all the time and you need FB to join support community.

*2018-10-06, version 2.44*

Crashes all the time and you need FB to join support community. 
Waste of $$

### 1/5 — Problem

*2018-09-11, version 2.44*

App keeps crashing

### 1/5 — Please update this app

*2016-10-22, version 2.43*

Community is so useful but the format is awful and in need of an update.  Community should be more like FB as currently there is no way to know if anyone is replying to something you have written.

### 5/5 — This app saved my life

*2023-02-28*

Literally. I quit back in 2015. It was hard for a while and I never would’ve made it without this app and the support group in the chat. Never looked back!

### 5/5 — This app and community saved my life❣️

*2022-01-09, version 2.44*

As if 1/9/22, I’m almost 8 years nicotine free after about 35 years smoking. The support from the community is amazing along with features to see progress in quitting. Please fix the app so others can benefit the same.

### 5/5 — Wonderful supporting community

*2022-01-01*

Nicotine free since 4/3/18  -  It's interesting how little reviews there are on the app store. The community is full of those that have said NOPE!   The community helps each other and nurtures one another through the success and the hard times. I largely owe my success in quitting nicotine to the support that I have found on this forum. There some neat little graphs and things also., But it is really the human interaction of people going through the same trials and tribulations that you are.

### 5/5 — They’re Baaaaasssck!!!

*2021-07-17, version 2.44*

I love this app.  I love it so much, in fact, that when the app went down because of a server error I wrote an angry review.  The app is great.  It has motivating quotes.  You can put a motivating pic on your page to remind you of why you quit.  There is also a counter, which tracks days and improvements in health.  By far the best part is the Butt Out community.  Here you can get great advice from Butt Out vets and post when you’re having a bad time of it or to celebrate a milestone.  It’s a great app with great members who help each other.  If you are trying to quit, try this app!!!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-03-08, version 2.44*

I love this app.  
Sometimes the mentality of some of the members hypicrocritally can be draining , but I took the journey and with the help of this app I’ve been quit over 6 rears!!! Thank B.C. you I bc am forever great full and will NBC highly recommended this app

### 5/5 — Smoke Free Strong

*2019-06-21, version 2.44*

March 7, 2015 my journey as a non smoker began. Butt Out app is the best app ever made it gave me my life back. The community board was so encouraging and supportive without that I doubt I would have been successful. My suggestion is use all the features in the app and stay connected to the community board, and you will reach your goal.

### 5/5 — FAntastic app saves my life

*2018-06-24, version 2.44*

Your pocket army is with you 7/24/365. I quit cold turkey with the help
Of this ap (after being a smoker for 30+ years). I am now going into my 5th year nicotine free. This is a must have app for anyone who wants to quit smoking forever.

### 5/5 — The Best Aid to STOP smoking!!!

*2018-05-26*

I was a smoker for 35 years....Tried quitting numerous times but couldn't keep with it for some reason...Then my mother in law fell ill....And I watched her slowly decline....COPD and other issues..Breathing became a huge struggle....She quit smoking 15 years prior....Last summer I came down with a small cold....But this cough just wouldn't go away...So finally on July 31st I decided I had my last cigarette..OUCH that was a hard decision!!! The very next day...I find this app...BUTT OUT....After a day of not smoking I was already weakening...This app has kept me STRONG and the community chat!!!! Life saving!!!! For the price of a pack of smokes...You have friends in the same boat....Use the tool and stay smoke free!!!!!

### 5/5 — When you’re ready to quit, BO is ready to help!

*2018-04-30*

Great app, great support from members. Totally recommend if you are serious about quitting. And if you’re not serious, hang around a while and you will get the motivation, inspiration and support to succeed in your quit!  What are you waiting for?

### 5/5 — It made me quit!

*2017-08-30, version 2.43*

I am smoke free for 2 months, and I still look at it once in a while to encourage myself! It works!
