Reviews

What QuitNic users write on the App Store.

Super app! It reminds me of the old Slutta app, but much better. Very motivating. I really like the Health Improvements feature where you can see your progress.
App Store ReviewQuitNic
This is a great app for motivation that doesn't just show the number of days, but that you can also get good use out of!
App Store ReviewQuitNic
This app has helped me quit nicotine entirely and works well!
