### 5/5 — 33 years and I quit

*2022-09-23, version 9.2*

It took me some time to write this review. I quit smoking in May 2001 after 33 years of being a prolific smoker. I smoked every day. I loved to smoke. It is how I took a break and rewarded myself and all of the things. I always told myself if I could make it through one day without a cigarette I would never smoke again.The week I turned 50 I got shingles and was not feeling well. I had been listening to Andrew Johnson’s relax meditations for quite some time and downloaded  the quitting smoking meditation which I believe is more like a type of hypnosis which I didn’t really believe in.I listened to it twice.That was it. I can’t really tell you what he said because I went into a meditative state or fell asleep.What I can tell you is that I have not smoked since the first day that I listened to it.I miss smoking but oddly every time I think about actually doing it I feel sort of nauseous. I hope that someone will read this and take a chance and it will help them the way it helped me. With gratitude I thank you Andrew.

### 3/5 — App stopped working

*2017-01-03*

I love this app and listen to it every night. A few days ago it stopped working, and will not play. Please help!

### 5/5 — Helpful & soothing

*2016-02-15*

Great tool for quitting cold turkey.

### 3/5 — some annoying things

*2014-12-04*

Seems like a well thought out and well functioning app, but I haven’t used it long enough to tell if it is effective. 
My only major grief is that between the induction and the therapy recordings, there are a few high pitched clicks, and the therapy recording is much louder than the induction. It just annoys me every time when the therapy starts, which I would assume is fairly contraproductive.

### 5/5 — It really does work

*2014-10-19*

I've been smoking for 25 years and tried a few different methods of stopping. I listened to this app every night for 4 weeks and slowly I lost my urge to have a cigarette and stopped without any cravings. I really recommend using this app to stop smoking. Thank you Andrew Johnson xx

### 5/5 — Fantastic!!!

*2013-12-20, version 6.1*

If you're really ready to quit. This will surely help!!!

### 2/5 — would be great

*2013-07-30, version 6.1*

the first part of this app is wonderful, very relaxing. but right after the induction there is a crackly noise and the volume jumps very loud, startling you out of your zone. if they could fix that technical error then this would be very helpful.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2013-03-27, version 6.1*

Love this! Listen every night almost. Been smoke free for over 2 months! Also i have Never fallen asleep faster or stayed asleep better! I bought 2 more of his apps!!

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2012-11-18*

Good for sleeping but that's just about it. You actually get up wanting to smoke, my wife tried it and said exactly same thing. There are better free apps out there, don't waste your time and money.

### 5/5 — Finally

*2012-10-09*

Honestly was trying to quit for 3 years... With true dedication.

Then I saw this app and said 'why not?!?!' ...  Took 2 weeks of listening to it at least everyother day..  And then, I just didn't feel like smoking anymore...  2 years and six months, I can thank this program (exclusively) for helping me fulfill my dream!!

Seriously, I have recommended this app to everyone and will never forget it
