Take the pouch down โ at your own pace. PouchDown is a private nicotine pouch tracker and quit companion. Whether you want a simple zyn tracker to see your habit clearly, or you're ready to cut down and quit nicotine pouches for good, it meets you where you are: log a pouch in one tap, watch the cravings pass, and see the money and nicotine you're leaving behind. Built for snus, nicotine pouches, and dip. No judgement, no shame โ just a clear picture and the tools to change it. โ TWO MODES, YOUR CHOICE โ โข Aware mode: simply track what you use, with no targets or pressure โ just honest awareness. โข Reduce & Quit mode: set a daily target to taper down gradually, or pick a quit date and go cold turkey โ PouchDown guides you down, step by step. Switch anytime. The app adapts the tools and milestones to the mode you're in. โ LOG IN ONE TAP โ A pouch takes a second to record. โข One-tap "+1" from the Today screen, or add brand, strength (mg), and a note when you want the detail. โข Built-in brand catalog (ZYN, VELO, and more) plus your own custom brands, with per-brand strength. โข Log a resisted urge too โ the cravings you beat count just as much as the ones you logged. โ SEE WHAT'S CHANGING โ Awareness you can actually feel. โข Live pouch-free timer, streaks, and a quitting timeline of milestones โ day 1, day 3, week 1, and beyond. โข Money saved and nicotine (mg) avoided over time. โข A Health Score that reflects your real trend, not a single day. โข Charts for time-of-day and weekday patterns, intake trends, and a calendar heatmap. โ RIDE OUT THE CRAVING โ Cravings and withdrawal peak and pass. PouchDown gives you something to do while they do. โข A guided urge timer to get you through the spike. โข A HALT check-in (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) to spot what's really driving it. โข Reflect on triggers and patterns so the next urge is easier. โ GROUNDED IN RESEARCH โ The tools and timings draw on established behavior-change and nicotine-cessation research, with the sources shown in-app so you can read them yourself. โ PRIVATE BY DESIGN โ Your habit is nobody's business but yours. โข Every pouch, note, and reflection is stored locally on your device. โข No account required. No cloud sync of your personal logs. โข Delete a single entry โ or wipe everything โ with one tap. โ FREE TO USE โ Core tracking, the urge timer, streaks, and your basic stats are free. โ OPTIONAL PREMIUM โ A subscription unlocks the full history, advanced charts and patterns, and the complete toolkit. Weekly, yearly, and lifetime options available. Cancel anytime. Privacy Policy and Terms of Use are available in-app and on our website.
