Smoke less β without pressure and without guilt. RYTH gives you a rhythm: between two cigarettes an interval runs, and step by step it gets longer. That's how you cut down on cigarettes, heated tobacco or vapes at your own pace. How RYTH works Tell RYTH how much you smoke now and how much you're aiming for. It spreads your daily goal across your waking hours. A calm ring shows you when the next one is due β and when it's worth waiting a little longer. What helps you β’ Rhythm timer: a ring instead of rules. Log with one tap. β’ Step-down plan: once a week RYTH asks if you're ready for one less a day. You decide. β’ Jokers: skip one on purpose and you earn a Joker. When a craving gets too strong, use it without losing your rhythm. β’ Breathing exercise: a short guided breathing break for cravings. β’ Reminders: RYTH lets you know when your interval is up. β’ Savings: see how much money you've saved today. β’ Milestones: bronze, silver and gold for sticking with it, skipping and saving. β’ For cigarettes, heated tobacco sticks and e-cigarettes. RYTH Premium β’ When it's hardest: see the times of day and the weekdays you smoke most β and plan for exactly those. β’ Your total savings since the start, your history over weeks and months and your yearly forecast. β’ Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen. β’ Apple Watch app: timer and logging right on your wrist. β’ Log straight from the notification. Premium is available as a monthly or yearly subscription. The yearly plan comes with a 7-day free trial. No account needed: your entries stay on your device. RYTH is not a medical device and does not replace medical advice.
