Since iQuit vs quitSTART

Since iQuit is a very simple app to keep track of the time since stopping smoking, drinking, or anything else you want to track. It also provides an estimated financial saving and acts as a motivational aid. I wrote a version of this programme on the 25th March 2009... The day I stopped smoking. Perhaps it's just the Scot in me, but I found the fact that I was saving my money as well as my health to be a great motivator through the cravings and during my weaker moments. It also became a little like an unbroken chain of 'good days' - the more they accumulated, the more determined I was to not break the chain! I hope that this simple app can help you to stay free of whatever you are trying to quit, as it has for me. Good luck, Hugh Williams
