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€” โ€ข Aware mode: simply track what you use, with no targets or pressure โ€” just honest awareness. โ€ข 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. โ€ข One-tap "+1" from the Today screen, or add brand, strength (mg), and a note when you want the detail. โ€ข Built-in brand catalog (ZYN, VELO, and more) plus your own custom brands, with per-brand strength. โ€ข 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. โ€ข Live pouch-free timer, streaks, and a quitting timeline of milestones โ€” day 1, day 3, week 1, and beyond. โ€ข Money saved and nicotine (mg) avoided over time. โ€ข A Health Score that reflects your real trend, not a single day. โ€ข 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. โ€ข A guided urge timer to get you through the spike. โ€ข A HALT check-in (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) to spot what's really driving it. โ€ข 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. โ€ข Every pouch, note, and reflection is stored locally on your device. โ€ข No account required. No cloud sync of your personal logs. โ€ข 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.

Fewer pouches doesn't mean less nicotine. Switch from 3mg to 6mg and you feel like you're quitting โ€” but your real intake went up. PouchDown counts what matters: milligrams. Most quit apps count pouches and celebrate clean days. PouchDown gives you a declining daily nicotine budget, in milligrams, that steps down to zero on a schedule you set. Log each pouch by brand and strength (ZYN, VELO, On!, Rogue, Zone, Lucy) and finally see what no count-based app can show โ€” the hidden creep, and your real progress. CATCH THE HIDDEN CREEP Cut from 12 pouches to 8 but moved from 3mg to 6mg? You're up on nicotine, not down. PouchDown reveals it. - Pouches vs. mg chart โ€” watch your count drop while your nicotine climbs - Average-strength trends โ€” catch your own upgrades over time - Budget performance โ€” days on track and how far ahead or behind your plan - Money saved โ€” estimated spend reduction from your baseline A BUDGET THAT STEPS DOWN TO ZERO Willpower runs out. A declining budget doesn't. - Strength-aware math โ€” 6mg ZYN is not 6mg On!; every pouch becomes real milligrams - Set your pace โ€” gentle, steady, or aggressive curve to a target quit date - Live mg budget โ€” milligrams remaining today, updated with every log - Daily reset โ€” each day starts fresh, so a slip never erases your progress ONE-TAP LOGGING, ANYWHERE - Quick-pick recent and favorite pouches as one-tap buttons - Log from the Lock Screen, a Home Screen widget, or Siri โ€” without opening the app - Smart next-pouch timing paces your intake against today's budget - Optional craving log to spot your triggers, never to judge you 100% ON-DEVICE AND PRIVATE Your pouch log never leaves your iPhone. - No account, no cloud, no tracking โ€” set up in seconds - All data stored and processed locally - Export a PDF or CSV report to share with a clinician or friend, if you choose NO STREAKS, NO SHAME You don't reset your life over a slip โ€” you reset tomorrow's budget and keep going.
