QuitKeep helps you quit and stay quit. Track your sober streak, see the money you're saving, watch your body recover, and get real help the moment a craving hits. Everything stays on your iPhone. $9.99 once. No account. No AI. No community. No subscription. Whether you're quitting vaping, nicotine pouches, alcohol, smoking, cannabis, gambling, or anything else, QuitKeep meets you where you are, one day at a time. WHY QUITKEEP IS DIFFERENT Most quit apps lock the basics behind a monthly fee, fill the screen with ads, or push your recovery data to the cloud. QuitKeep does the opposite: every core feature is free, there are no ads, and nothing ever leaves your device. THE NIGHTS THAT TEST YOU A party. Drinks with friends. A trip. No other quit app holds these nights. QuitKeep does: it is there the morning of, thirty minutes before with your plan, and the morning after. KNOW YOUR MOVE BEFORE IT HITS • Write if-then plans: "If stress hits, I will take a walk." One plan per trigger, in your own words or from proven suggestions • Your plans appear in SOS, in the craving log, and in your tough-hour reminder, exactly when they apply LEARN YOUR PATTERNS • See the hours your cravings cluster and your most common trigger • Your hour, forecast by weekday from your own log, with a note twenty minutes before TRACK WHAT MATTERS • A live counter of your clean time, down to the second • Total days won: your cumulative clean time, which never resets • Money saved, based on your real habit and costs • Set a savings goal ("weekend trip", "new headphones") and watch your quit-money climb toward it • Units avoided: pouches not used, cigarettes not smoked, drinks not had, and more • Track several quits at once, each with its own progress YOUR COUNTER, EVERYWHERE • Your tree on your Home Screen and Lock Screen, under a sky that follows the clock. The sun rises when you pledge • Clean-time widgets, ticking live, with a one-tap SOS beside them • Discreet mode shows just a number and a leaf, never a substance name • Take the daily pledge in one tap, right from your home screen WHEN A CRAVING HITS • A Home Screen SOS widget: from craving to help in one tap • An urge-surfing guide: notice it, name it, ride it out • A guided breathing exercise and a 15-minute "ride the wave" timer, right on your Lock Screen • A one-tap call to the person you chose for exactly this moment A SLIP NEVER ERASES YOU • Your longest streak and total days won are always kept. One hard day never erases the journey • Log what set it off, then write a plan for that exact trigger and recommit on the spot SEE YOURSELF HEAL • A sourced recovery timeline for smoking, vaping, pouches, and alcohol: the next stone on your trail says what is changing in your body • Earn milestone badges from day one to five years YOUR HISTORY, SAFE FOREVER • Free backup and restore: one file with every quit, streak, craving, reason, and pledge • A new phone never means starting over TRULY PRIVATE • 100% on-device. There is no account and no server • No tracking, no ads, no data sharing • Optional Face ID / passcode lock • Free CSV and PDF exports. Your data is always yours Perfect for quitting vaping, zyn or nicotine pouches, smoking, or drinking, for Dry January, or for building a sober life that lasts. QUITKEEP PLUS (optional, one-time) Everything you need to quit is free, forever. Plus is a small one-time thank-you that unlocks a few extras: more than two quits at once and long-range insights over 90 days or all time. No subscription, ever. QuitKeep is a personal tracker. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you drink heavily or daily, talk to a doctor before stopping, as alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous. If you're in crisis, the in-app Get Help screen lists free, confidential support lines.
