See how long you've gone without a cigarette β€” without opening the app. Quit Smoking keeps your smoke-free time and the money you've saved on your Home Screen widget, your Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island. One glance is all it takes. β–  WIDGETS THAT DO THE WORK Seven widgets, plus a Live Activity and an iOS 18 Control. Put your timer, your savings, your health recovery or a one-tap craving button wherever you'll actually see them. β–  WHEN A CRAVING HITS, TAP ONE BUTTON A breathing guide helps the wave pass. Every time you ride one out, it's logged β€” and Insights turns those logs into a clear picture of which hours, places and moods set you off, so you can plan around them. β–  HEATED TOBACCO IS TRACKED TOO Not just cigarettes. If you use IQOS, lil, Ploom or a vape, your units and spending are counted properly. β–  A SLIP DOESN'T ERASE YOUR PROGRESS Most apps reset you to zero. This one keeps your lifetime totals, your personal best and every badge you've earned. After a slip you get a comeback screen: see how long you lasted, note what set it off, then start again. β–  REWARD FUND Pick something you actually want. The money you're not spending on tobacco goes toward it, and you watch the days-to-go shrink. β–  NOT READY TO GO COLD TURKEY? Reduction mode lowers your daily count step by step and guides you to a full quit, at a pace you set. β–  FIVE MINUTES A DAY A 14-day program breaks down the psychology of nicotine, one short lesson at a time. Plus dozens of articles β€” the science of addiction, the money, the reality of heated tobacco, short fiction. β–  AND A KAPPA A cucumber-chewing river spirit from Japanese folklore shows up every day to check on you, celebrate your milestones and give you grief when you slack off. He is not optional. Available in English, Japanese, Spanish and Korean. 【Premium (monthly, 7-day free trial)】 ・Unlimited member-only articles (added regularly) ・All 14 lessons unlocked (Day 4 onward) ・Detailed insights (time-of-day and place analysis, early warnings for your risky hours) ・Reduction program ・No ads Subscription renews automatically.
