Have you considered quitting smoking? Whether you’ve already quit smoking or you’re still thinking about it, QuitNow will help you quit tobacco for good. Quitting smoking is one of the best decisions you can make for your health: it reduces your risk of disease, you regain energy, you save money, and you also protect the people around you. But the truth is, quitting isn’t easy. That’s where QuitNow comes in. QuitNow was born in 2011, created by a smoker who wanted to quit. Since then, we’ve grown, brought in addiction specialists, and refined our tools so you can quit tobacco for good: YOUR EX-SMOKER STATUS When you quit smoking, it’s important to clearly see what you’re achieving. That’s why on QuitNow’s home screen you’ll see how long it’s been since you last smoked, how many cigarettes you haven’t smoked, how much money you’ve saved, and how much life you’ve regained. COMMUNITY: THE EX-SMOKERS’ CHAT Having a smoke-free environment is crucial when you quit. QuitNow offers a chat full of people who, like you, have said goodbye to tobacco. Sharing your journey with other ex-smokers will make your path easier. LIVE SESSIONS WITH AN EXPERT Every month we host a live session with a smoking-cessation expert. In these sessions, the psychologist explains the best way to quit smoking and answers attendees’ questions live. These sessions are a unique opportunity to get personalized advice and resolve doubts in real time. A COMPLETE COURSE TO QUIT SMOKING Some people prefer a more structured method when they quit. That’s why QuitNow includes a step-by-step course designed to guide you throughout the entire quitting process. It works like a digital book, but integrated inside the app. MILESTONES: SMALL MOTIVATIONS TO QUIT SMOKING As with any task in life, quitting is easier when you break the challenge into smaller goals. That’s why QuitNow offers 80 milestones based on the cigarettes you’ve avoided, the days you’ve gone without smoking, and the money you’ve saved. This way, you can start celebrating your wins from day one. YOUR HEALTH AS AN EX-SMOKER In QuitNow you’ll find a list of health indicators that show how your body improves day by day. These indicators are the same ones published by the World Health Organization, and we update them as soon as the WHO does. Plus, QuitNow includes other sections designed to help you on your journey to quit smoking. QUITNOW AI Whenever questions come up during your quitting process, you can turn to QuitNow AI. It’s designed to provide clear, reliable information, based on our course and on data from the World Health Organization. BOOKS TO HELP YOU QUIT SMOKING Learning techniques and approaches to quit can make the process much easier. That’s why we’ve selected well-known books that can effectively help you on your path to a tobacco-free life. ALSO ON YOUR WATCH QuitNow’s Apple Watch app and its widgets and tiles let you track your progress, see how much you’ve saved, and check your smoke-free stats right from your wrist. Because we dedicate so much time and effort to it, we firmly believe QuitNow is the best app to quit smoking. As always, there’s room for improvement—so if you have any idea to make QuitNow even better, please write to us at ios@quitnow.app. We truly hope QuitNow supports you on your journey to a tobacco-free life.

Quitting nicotine is hard. Vapexit takes the parts that can be made easier and makes them easier: knowing where you stand, getting through the next three minutes, and starting again without starting over. WORKS FOR VAPES, CIGARETTES AND POUCHES Pick the product you actually use and Vapexit counts it in its own units: puffs, cigarettes or pouches. The money you keep, the units you never used and the health milestones ahead are all worked out for that product, not for a generic smoker. Quitting a disposable you never put down? Off cigarettes for the third and final time? Cutting a pouch habit down to a quit date? Each of those is a path the app was built around. BUILT ON WHAT THE RESEARCH SAYS WORKS - Your dependence is measured with validated instruments: the Penn State Electronic Cigarette Dependence Index for vaping and the Heaviness of Smoking Index for cigarettes. Where no validated tool exists yet, as with pouches, the app says so instead of inventing a verdict. - Quit at once, or step down to a quit date. A Cochrane review finds the two equally effective, so Vapexit recommends one, supports both, and makes sure a taper always ends on a real quit day. - A slip is logged as a day, not as failure. Relapse research is clear that shame after a lapse is what turns it into a full relapse, so your total clean days and your record streak are never taken away. - Craving SOS is one tap from the home screen and never behind a paywall: a three-minute delay timer, paced breathing, and your own reasons read back to you. Delay comes first because cravings peak and pass. - The notification program follows the shape of withdrawal: a run-up before your quit date, close support through the first 72 hours when symptoms peak, then a cadence that eases off as you do. - Every milestone on the health recovery timeline links to its source, including smokefree.gov, the NHS and the National Cancer Institute. No source, no claim. - App support does far more when paired with nicotine replacement, so Vapexit includes a plain guide to the options, free, and leaves the decision to you and your pharmacist. FREE, FOREVER One-tap logging. A clean-day counter, money kept and units avoided. A calendar you can correct for any day, including today. Craving SOS. A morning pledge and an evening check-in. Delete all of it whenever you decide. VAPEXIT PRO The tailored notification program. The sourced health recovery timeline. More craving tools, including urge surfing and extra breathing patterns. A taper plan whose daily limit steps down to the quit day you chose. Your check-in history, read in context. NO ACCOUNT, NO SIGN-UP No email address, no password, no name. Your history is filed under an anonymous ID, so nobody has to be trusted with your identity. SUBSCRIPTION Vapexit Pro is available as an auto-renewing subscription. Annual is billed once a year and starts with a 7-day free trial. Monthly is billed once a month. Lifetime is a one-time purchase and does not renew. Prices are shown in the App Store for your region. A subscription renews unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings; deleting the app does not cancel it. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Privacy Policy: https://vapexit.mriy.io/privacy-policy.html Terms of Use: https://vapexit.mriy.io/terms-of-use.html Vapexit offers general information and habit support. It is not medical advice and it is not a substitute for a doctor. Whether nicotine replacement therapy is right for you is a question for a pharmacist or a doctor, who can account for the rest of your health.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Quit Vaping Tracker at none against QuitNow's shown. Quit Vaping Tracker also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). QuitNow's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 2) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
