Just be willing to win!! When it gets bumpy, I just re listen to these sessions. At first it was once a week. Then every couple months, and now once or twice a YEAR!! You will never look back. ### 5/5 — Best thing ever ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *2024-09-18, version 3.1.2* I was a smoker for 23 years and tried twice to stop smoking in that timeframe and failed both times after a week. I found this on the App Store and after reading the reviews I was still unsure given the fact that the reviews were quite old so I did some research and decided to bite the bullet and I must say alongside willpower this app is brilliant I listen to it daily before bed so it goes in my subconscious. And it has really helped me. I have been quit now 28days and started using this after the first 5 days when it got hard with cravings but it’s really well worth trying if your serious about giving up and becoming a none smoker like me. This should be at the top of the App Store for people to see seriously. I’m currently using nicotine patches along side this but planning on stopping them at the 30th week. I ### 5/5 — 4 years on *2024-09-06, version 3.1.2* Ok so its taken me a while to write this review but I guess most want to know if it works and if you can stay off the cigs? For me it’s a yes to both. I had stopped before then started again as is the usual story for most. I had used apps before but it was lock down and to be honest, the change to my normal routine definitely helped. It’s mostly habit and finding somehow to replace that habit but this app 100% helped. Breathing through the cravings kept me from smoking and helped to realise that once you get past one caving, it’s just about getting by the next one and one after. For the money, it’s well worth a try and if you don’t succeed this time, try again. ### 1/5 — Did not Work but still paying it seems! *2023-11-19, version 3.1.0* Did not work for me & now I am struggling to cancel what seems to be a monthly subscription to Apple? All assistance welcome. ### 5/5 — Surprised *2023-07-26* I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would quit smoking, I started smoking when I was about 11 years old. I am now 67 and I actually quit almost 2 years ago using this app. Like I said I don’t know how but it obviously worked I have not had one cigarette since November 2021: Thanks Max!!! ### 3/5 — Needs improvement *2023-06-21, version 3.1.0* I do believe that this app has helped me to quit smoking. However I did use it in conjunction with a prescription drug that blocks the part of the brain that is “addictive” I don’t believe that this app would have worked on its own. My main criticism is that it is highly focused on the medical aspects of smoking and in this day and age who isn’t aware of the medical dangers associated with smoking! As a female if there was a stronger focus on the negative aspects of how smoking affects aging, how you smell, how it makes your skin hair and clothing stink, how it ruins your skin and makes your teeth look horrible and even how it makes your hands and nails look and smell revolting etc. Perhaps I would have listened to it more often. Also the scary advertising is just the same advertising that we grew up with in Australia and is the warning on our tobacco products. So nothing new there. In fact it is extremely outdated. Still relevant but outdated and nothing new and quite frankly if it worked we all would have stopped smoking in the 1990’s. People don’t think long term. But having immediate negative impacts voiced would’ve been highly beneficial for me at least. I know since I have quit successfully and am off the drug now and not using this app. The main benefits for me are a fresh home, clean hair, teeth, clothing and a remarkable improvement in my skin. I look great! That’s what I can see and feel. Yes its superficial but the fact is that we live in a superficial society. I’m 55 years old. I’m no glamour girl and I don’t really care much about fashion or makeup. But I do care about what people basically think of me. So a stronger focus on that in the hypnotherapy world have been a greater help. Otherwise give it a go. No harm it’s cheaper than a packet of cigarettes. But you have to already be fully committed. ### 5/5 — It works!! Book a session now if you want to quit!! *2023-04-28, version 3.1.0* I had a session with max and it worked!!! I had a few cravings but the techniques he gives you work in minutes to stop the cravings. Previously I had tried many ways to give up smoking and failed. It really was so easy and now I rarely think about it. This is coming from someone who loved smoking. I now feel completely indifferent about it. Magical. The app is brilliant for afterwards if you need it. ### 5/5 — IOS 16 Audi/video player issue fix now added. *2022-12-18, version 3.0* NEWS! App software fix has now been added after latest iPhone IOS 16 software update identified a new audio/video media player problem for all past and new users. Problem has now been solved and ready download with new player fix update. Thanks for your patience. Kind regards, Max ### 1/5 — The App just won’t download *2022-12-01* I’d love to try this. Please fix it! ### 5/5 — It works *2022-10-10, version 2.0* Max is a hero. He’s added years to my life. Had been a pack-a-day smoker for over 15 years. Haven’t smoked since I left his office (and by using the support of this app). Its very hard to quit smoking. This app makes the impossible, possible. ## Frequently asked questions about Quit Smoking NOW ### What does the Quit Smoking NOW app do?
