Need an update. Should be able to set up motivation & a button that let's you add url code to a list of site's you like. Proper nice helpful count down. Let you in app when waiting to stop.. could help so many..

Good if it worked Firstly it's not compatible with my tablet, so I had to use it on my phone which has a small amount of storage and it won't go to the memory card. It also crashes a lot and doesn't remember how long I've stopped smoking for, so I get no badges either! Very sad! 😔

Gemma Packer

The daily support messages are good but that's the only good part. The app doesn't calculate savings correctly, it could also do with some games or something to help pass cravings. I have found another app which is much prefer

Great idea but app not functioning. Really disappointed

Diane Brown 20 March 2017

I've used it before and it was rubbish so I uninstalled the maybe it will be different this time x

Cat Hurst 14 April 2017

Loads up several times when turning phone on. So annoying

Judith Wood 7 February 2017

Freezes my phone. Can't access any other app. Useless which is a shame.

So close but yet so far... There are lots of good features but a few things really let this app down. Firstly that you can't back date the app. Secondly you can't set the price you pay for cigarette to give an accurate reading. Thirdly amount you save and the time you've not smoked for refershes daily rather than in live time. 4th the app stops after 28 days which is a bit annoying.

Nikki Wyllie 31 March 2016

Good app Have 2 apps and have been smoke free for 21 days. Shame this only goes for 28 days but I do have the quit now app which is good as well.

dark mage 15 June 2016

Won't let me back date The app is good but it won't me back date it. I am currently on day 4 of quitting and I can't put this back to the date I quit

Louise Bennett 1 April 2016

Good app It is a good app but when it comes to the amount saved it is not taking into account the tobacco (ex)smokers.

Kelly Hayes 11 February 2016

Havent succeeded yet but havent quit trying to quit, somewhat helpful

Julie Kingman 21 January 2016

January 2016 Installed 2 apps to stop smoking, this one wasn't the best of the two

KAREN WILLIAMS 28 April 2016

After finding out some disturbing news regarding my dad's health that is hereditary I promise to try and quit smoking for my health and the sake of my close family

Laura Parkes 21 September 2016

Won't open "smoke free has stopped" getting a bit tedious now....

Ben Rush 27 September 2016

It's an ok app but I wish it supported you after the 28 days

Mr macao x smoker

Darren Herbert 25 February 2015

Useful but flaws make it a bit deflating Smooth running app, but on android 5.0 seems to not let you share progress on Facebook and Twitter. Also limited input about smoking habits and personal motivations cause app to crash when updating. Shame when you're working so hard to do your best. Badges seemed like a gimmick but I liked sharing them. Then the app started crashing so I may get another app cos bragging rights on social media puts healthy pressure on yourself to stay committed and show others it's doable. Thanks for trying though, appmakers

Matty Sims 29 December 2014

Bring back previous version The old version was so much better as it didn't just stop working on day 28. I had to then download a competitors app to see.my.money saved and cigarettes not smoked. Why change a good thing and make it less of what someone trying to quit wants. Quitting is an ongoing thing. I've tried before and was still using the app after 3 months. This is pointless now and just ended up being deleted. Rubbish

Nicola Young 7 October 2015

Not great Only goes to 28 days. If you use nicotine replacement most of them are three month programmes so would be better to run alongside. Also didnt get notifications even though requested them.

Andrea Allen 4 March 2014

Good but should run longer than 28 days I found the app really helpful..it was the only resource I used. No patches, inhalators nothing... the badges were a good incentive to keep going.. im into week 10 smoke free now and wouldn't dream of lighting up. .thanks smoke free x

shona Lundie 27 May 2014

Could be better I did find this app really helpful and did find great satisfaction with the daily check but felt it shouldn't just stop at 28 days. Its been 140 days since I gave up and would love to use the app still.

Nicholas Cross 22 November 2015

I like it My only problem is it quits every time I try and add a motivator and the button to share my badges on Twitter doesn't work. That aside its a good app for quitters- I'm on day 5 and not turning back!

jamie campbell 18 August 2015

Good basis, several issues So overall the app is useful & I continue to use it but it has a lot of simple problems to fix. The badges, craving help & money tracker are nice features. App crashes whenever I try & input my motivations but otherwise has not crashed. It's a shame that there are not more options for motivations, as they are too limited to cover everyone's reasons properly. Similarly it has one preset 'cost per cigarette' that you cannot alter, so I had to say I smoked far less a day to get the tracker to work for rollies.

Joanne Kay 22 February 2015

Needlessly stops after 28 days. It's really useful while it lasts. Fair enough you don't need to continue being given a motivational message every day after 4 weeks, but the savings calculator could have continued easily. The fact that it stops after 28 days is rediculous.

Paul Suhanski 30 November 2014

Updates needed!! Unimpressed with this app!!... Needs improvement. Couldn't put time in which I quit smoking and also kept crashing on my Samsung galaxy note 3 device.

Simon Bartlett 17 March 2014

Nexus 5 Good idea but badly implemented. App won't allow any sharing with other sites, messages, images and keeps crashing

Dale Gruncell 6 February 2015

Poor. Constantly apologising for not allowing access to parts of the app. Very good idea, very poor execution! NHS being the way it is there should be an improved app available within the next 20 years so hold tight ;-)

Vonny Von 26 January 2014

Good little app Been a boost for those tougher moments. The calculator is great gives you a day by day tally of what you save. ....worked for me along with a shed load of willpower.

David Shaw 26 March 2014

No settings? You can't enter the date you quit or how much your choice of cigarettes were making it very inaccurate. Plus it only goes up to 28 days.

Steph Hillyer 12 October 2014

Rubbish. I quit 4 years to the day so wanted to see the stats on that. Telling me the date is wrong. Sort it out people.

chris weatherall 9 March 2014

Needs Improvement Quit 2 days before finding the app. Unfortunately the app just assumes your using it on day one and cannot be changed. No good for me.
