Quit vaping one puff down at a time. PuffDown is the lowest-friction puff counter there is — log a puff from your Apple Watch or lock screen in under two seconds — paired with a gentle taper plan that walks you down to zero. Counting 50–200 puffs a day shouldn't mean unlocking your phone 50–200 times. Tap +1 from an interactive lock-screen Live Activity, a widget, or your wrist. Then watch a daily limit step gently down to your quit date. WHY YOU'LL LOVE PUFFDOWN • Log a puff without unlocking — lock-screen Live Activity, widgets & Apple Watch • A taper plan that adapts — gentle daily limits down to your quit date, no black box • No shame on a hard day — over your limit is okay; a slip never wipes your streak • Get through the craving — 60-second breathing, a wait timer, your reasons & savings • See what you're getting back — money saved, puffs & nicotine avoided, recovery milestones • Private by design — no account, no tracking, your data stays on your device PUFFDOWN PRO Unlocks the taper plan, the Apple Watch app, lock-screen counting & widgets, craving SOS, and full insights.
