Better than others

Thanks for your feedback! We’re glad you’re enjoying Alive. We understand how smoking only half a cigarette or taking just a few puffs can be another way to reduce. The difficulty is that building the program around this would make tracking much more complex, since the number and intensity of puffs can vary considerably. It could also make the process more demanding for the user. Having to constantly count puffs or decide whether each cigarette was a half, a quarter, or some other amount can turn tracking into an extra task throughout the day and eventually become tiring. That’s why Alive intentionally keeps cigarettes as a simple unit and focuses primarily on gradually increasing the time between them. We want reducing to be something you can follow without having to constantly measure every detail of your smoking. Thanks for sharing your suggestion and for giving Alive a try!
It really did help.

Amazing! Congratulations and thanks for the review.
No adjustment
It should see that I smoke 4 cigarettes in a row sometimes and shorten the time between smokes to account for that knowing I won’t wait 25 minutes to smoke but maybe 10-15 at first. I smoke more in the morning and at night. There should be an algorithm that takes all these factors in to account. I may have to find an app that can do that.

Hi! Thanks for your feedback. The idea behind Alive is actually a little different from what you’re describing. The goal of the program is to gradually help users increase the waiting time between cigarettes and build longer periods without nicotine. If the app continuously adjusted itself to every smoking pattern, it would also need to account for weekends, workdays, vacations, parties, stressful situations, holidays, and many other variables. In practice, that would often reinforce existing habits rather than help create new ones. Our approach is intentionally simpler: gradually separate cigarettes so your body gets used to longer periods without nicotine, regardless of the specific situation or time of day. That said, different people prefer different methods, and we genuinely hope you find the approach that works best for you. Thanks for giving Alive a try.
