About this app

Created for those who want to stop smoking for good, the NHS Quit Smoking app is a 28 day programme that puts practical support, encouragement, and tailored clinical advice in the palm of your hand.
The evidence suggests you are 5 times more likely to quit for good if you stay smoke free for 28 days, with this in mind we will help you on your own personal journey to quit.
We’ll be with you every step of the way, helping you achieve your target, picking you up if you stumble, and celebrating your successes for 28 days - and beyond!
Every week we will provide a guide broken down into manageable chunks, giving you missions to complete and timely, useful advice.

Ratings and reviews

Been smoke free for over a year and this app really helped me stay the course. Being able to track the days and money saved coupled with the targets and trophies was great for my motivation. On the downside I wish it could be more configurable, changing the cost of tobacco after a budget for example would be great, unfortunately these settings can only be configured at the start unless you reset the app.

Absolutely gutted. I quit smoking over 2 years ago. Every now and then I'd log into the app to see my progress, I've how mum money I saves, health benefits now, how much my lunch has health etc. I just went to look at my account and the whole thing has reset as if it's never been used. A whole new account for someone who still smokes. I'm gutted.

I find the app very encouraging as you can see how much your health improves, which was one of my reasons to stop smoking. You need to have your reasons why you want to stop, otherwise you will struggle. But keep trying. Self love and self care starts with you being in the best health, smoke free. If I can do it, you can. Please be encourage by this review 🙏🏾
