Whether you started smoking by sneaking off with your dad’s pack, getting offered one at a party, or just out of pure curiosity, it can easily turn into a daily habit. If you’re a current smoker, one of the best decisions you can make for your health is quitting tobacco. While smokers in the past had to make do with a book or just sheer willpower, these days the right iPhone app can help make your quitting journey that much easier.

Here are our picks for the five best iPhone apps to help you put down cigarettes for good.

1. Smoke Free

One of Smoke Free’s biggest selling points is how visual it is. Right off the bat, you’ll get a large indicator of your progress, tracking how long you’ve spent smoke-free, and how your health has improved so far.

Smoke Free’s missions are daily tasks that help you on your quitting journey. Beginning up to one week before you stop quitting, they’re designed to encourage you and educate you on reasons to stop smoking. They can range from journaling, researching information, and giving you tips to help you succeed.

There’s also an integrated diary where you can write about your quitting journey. Writing and journaling can help you manage cravings by letting you express your feelings, organizing your thoughts, and giving you a record of progress. Smoke Free also features social media integration. You can post your achievements to Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, just make sure you don’t overshare to social media.

3. Kwit

Most apps designed to help you quit smoking assume you’ve already snuffed out that last cigarette, but Kwit takes a different approach. When you open the app for the first time, Kwit will ask you whether you’ve already quit smoking or are preparing to quit. If you’re ready to stop smoking but haven’t taken the plunge yet, Kwit will start you with a nine-step program designed to educate you and kick-start your journey to becoming smoke-free.

The steps include exercises designed to highlight why you smoke, the misconceptions surrounding smoking, and alternative behaviors to try instead of smoking a cigarette.

If you’ve already smoked your last cigarette and need support to keep going, Kwit will help motivate you to continue. Like other smoking-cessation apps, Kwit tracks health stats like your decreasing risk of heart attack and the amount of carbon monoxide you’ve spared your lungs from.

Kwit will also track goals you might not have considered. If you’re environmentally conscious, Kwit can monitor how much water you’ve saved from being used in tobacco production or how much CO2 your decision to stop smoking has saved from being released into the atmosphere. Kwit is ad free and offers a seven-day free trial, but to access all steps and features you will need to purchase a subscription.

5. Quit Smoking

Quit Smoking can help you track your time spent without cigarettes and the money you’ve saved while doing it, all while giving advice tailored to help when you do feel those cravings.

Unlike most apps, Quit Smoking targets each person’s different motivation for quitting. While lots of apps can help you track how much money you’ve saved by giving up tobacco, Quit Smoking lets you set your own unique financial goals. So whether you’re saving for a new outfit, a new phone, or a new car, Quit Smoking can help you keep track of how giving up cigarettes is bringing you closer to your goals.

While a lot of apps will give you general advice about what to do when you feel the urge to smoke, Quit Smoking provides specific scenarios and advice for when cravings might strike. For example, if you’re at a party or bar and feel the urge to light up, Quit Smoking’s guide can give you tips designed to help you fight cravings. Advice like trying a drink you’ve never had before or moving away from where people are smoking can help you stay smoke-free.

Getting full access to all of Quit Smoking’s full range of scenarios, tips, and a 100-day smoking-cessation program requires an in-app purchase.
