Ditch is built for the way people actually quit nicotine — whatever form it takes. Pouches, vaping, cigarettes, snus or chewing tobacco. Pick everything you use, and your plan covers all of it. EIGHT QUESTIONS, THEN A PLAN Answer eight quick questions about what you use, what it costs you, when the cravings hit and why you're stopping. Ditch builds a plan from your numbers, not from a generic template. It takes about a minute, and you don't need an account. WATCH THE MONEY COME BACK A savings counter built from the prices you entered, not a national average. Most people have never added it up before. GET THROUGH THE MOMENT IT HITS A craving tool one tap from anywhere in the app: a paced-breathing hold with a countdown, or your own reasons back on screen. KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT, WEEK BY WEEK A plain-spoken, sourced timeline of what people commonly notice after they stop, laid out against your own dates. QUIT ALONGSIDE PEOPLE WHO STARTED THE SAME DAY Anonymous check-ins from your quit-date group. No feed, no follower counts, no strangers judging you. SLIP WITHOUT STARTING OVER Log a slip in two taps, or undo it if you tapped by mistake. Your longest streak, your total days and every note you've written stay exactly where they are. Past attempts aren't failures — they're the practice this one is built on. COLD TURKEY OR TAPER Stop outright on your quit date, or step down over two to six weeks on a daily allowance that reaches zero when you get there. Pick the one you can picture yourself doing. ONE NUDGE A DAY A daily check-in timed for the window your cravings actually land in, plus a note when you pass 24 hours, three days, a week, a month. No marketing, no streak-shaming, nothing else. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account needed to start. Your private notes, personal reasons and written commitment stay encrypted on your device, never uploaded or included in analytics. Onboarding and core tracking work offline. Ditch doesn't run ads and doesn't sell your data. DITCH PREMIUM A subscription unlocks the full plan, the craving tool, the dated timeline and your quit-date group. Available plans, prices and any free trial are shown before purchase. Cancel any time in your App Store settings. Ditch is a behaviour-change app. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. For questions about stopping-smoking medicines, or about any symptom that worries you, talk to a doctor or your national quitline. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS Premium is an auto-renewing subscription, billed weekly or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel it in App Store settings.

WHAT YOU GET • A live streak counter for every habit you're quitting, with a milestone ladder from your first day to a full year • A 20-minute urge timer with breathing, your own reasons, and proof you've beaten it before — reachable from a widget, the Lock Screen, Control Center, or your Action Button • Smart nudges before the hour you're usually most at risk, learned from your own logged urges • A daily pledge and evening review to keep you honest with yourself • Letters to your future self, sealed until you reach the milestone you wrote them for • A savings tracker that turns every day sober into money (or time, or anything else) kept • A calendar, a workbook, and short daily readings across eight different voices — stoic, gentle, or no-nonsense, your choice BUILT DIFFERENTLY Quit! keeps everything on your phone.
