Battal Smoking Cessation App The biggest reason people can’t quit smoking for good? They believe it takes willpower. But what if you found a way to quit for good effortlessly, permanently and without a sense of loss or a feeling of missing smoking? Enter Battal Smoking Cessation app, the first app designed for the Arab world using proven science to help you quit smoking. First of all, you will not be asked to quit smoking during the program. You will first understand how smoking works and then at the end you will quit easily and without the need for willpower. Battal’s success is rooted in its approach– with Battal, you aren’t required to hold yourself back from smoking; rather, over the course of days, you arrive at the conclusion that you don’t really want to nor are interested to smoke anymore. How? Battal uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a well-known and well-tested method that helps smokers undo the smoking myths that have them enslaved to smoking, freeing them of any need or want to smoke– by simply seeing and experiencing smoking for what it is, smokers arrive to one conclusion: I don’t have to quit smoking because I really do not want to smoke now, so I will just stop. And if it sounds too good to be true, it’s worth giving it a try: There’s nothing to lose…And it costs less than a week’s worth of cigarettes. Over the course of 11 steps, you will be guided on a journey that: ● Addresses the reasons you think you smoke ● Reveals the real reasons you actually smoke ● Tackles the fears you have about quitting smoking ● Replacing those fears one by one with one empowering truth… You can stop smoking any time you want to, because you don’t want to smoke anymore. Battal works for all types of smoking devices– from cigarettes, Iqos, vapes to shisha. The program is split into 11 simple steps, which you can finish in 1-2 days, followed by a post-quit guide to navigate your new life as a non-smoker. There’s also a Battal community group full of ex-smokers to give some insights and advice as you go through the program. You can ask questions, share your milestones & find a lot of inspiring support 24/7. The best part? If you’ve tried to quit dozens of times before. THIS WILL BE YOUR LAST. Because the hardest part of quitting is never starting smoking again. With Battal, that’s no longer a problem!

About

SleepWalking Shield

Read full description

SleepWalking Shield is a dedicated watch app designed to support people who struggle with sleepwalking. Start a session on your watch before you fall asleep and let it quietly monitor for walking movements during the night. If SleepWalking Shield detects that you may be walking in your sleep, it gently wakes you with haptic vibration and sound that increase in intensity if you keep moving. With the companion iPhone app, you can review when potential sleepwalking episodes occurred, including the time and your heart rate at that moment. Over time, you can build a clearer picture of how often you may be sleepwalking and when it tends to happen. SleepWalking Shield is built for people and families affected by sleepwalking who want extra peace of mind at night. The app is completely free to use. Key features: Watch sleepwalking sessions: Start monitoring directly from your wrist before bed and let your watch do the work while you sleep. Gentle wake-up alerts: Receive subtle vibrations and sounds that gradually intensify if you continue walking, helping you wake up more calmly than a sudden loud alarm.​ Episode timeline on iPhone: See when potential sleepwalking episodes occurred and view your heart rate at those times in the companion iPhone app. Designed for sleepwalking: Focused specifically on walking during sleep, not just general sleep tracking or snoring.​ Privacy by design: SleepWalking Shield does not collect or share any personal data. There are no user accounts and no third‑party analytics. Your information stays on your devices. Completely free: No in‑app purchases, subscriptions or paywalls. Requirements: A watch is required to use SleepWalking Shield. The app relies on your watch to detect walking movements and deliver gentle alerts. The iPhone app is used to view your sleepwalking timeline and related heart rate data recorded by the watch. Important: SleepWalking Shield is a supportive tool and is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any sleep disorder or health condition. Always speak to a healthcare professional for advice about sleepwalking or other sleep issues.
