This app used to be great when I quit a year or so ago. Now it's full of bugs and crashes constantly. update: seriously guys you need to fix this. when a smoker comes to this app looking for support for not smoking and the app doesn't work, it's more of a hindrance than a help. some examples I've noticed: "distract me" only works twice then crashes the app (used to have games? but no more); the community forum scrolling is all wonky; the app only opens for me every second attempt; etc etc
App really needs some attention... Unable to upload or take pics (not sure what else might not be working as I became frustrated with the app). Used to be quite good some years ago, but functionality is lacking nowadays, which is rather disappointing. Would love to see it fixed!
You need to fix the bugs on this app. I downloaded its and put in all personal details ( how many do you smoke, how often ect..)it asked and wouldn't finish the process to go to the next step where it tells you all of you progress. Then try to close and reopen it and it crashes.
There's too many lags now. It doesn't allow to upload a photo, doesn't update you any more on your progress and what changes you have made to your body like it use to. It doesn't check in if you're still smoke free or slipped up any more and it shuts down.
The foundation for a great app is there. Though it's very glitchy and just triggers me to want a smoke -.-. Would be nice if we were able to upload a photo to have a visual reminder why we downloaded this app to begin with.
I finally found the best quit app for me!!🤗 Nice designs, cool colors, great features and a Community. How about text-a-buddy as a feature? If you uninstall you will have to start over..widgets and diary would be nice, but yet an awesome app developers!! 👍❤I love it, Fix Community😣 Update:Now able to access community😊
It's a great concept but a bit glitchy and dated. Games don't work, keeps promising an update and to save data. Do find the stats motivating though. A few more stats and benefits would add value.
Please fix this app! Could be great. Good info but functionality needs to be retested by developers. One comment... Add a photo doesn't work at all.Choose photo then nothing uploads or shows.Another comment, done setting up profile features rely on hitting your phones 'back' button whe you there should be a confirmation button.
This is actually a great app; but it's been buggy for beyond months now. Moderators promised an overhaul update that will reinvent the app but so far nothing. The community involved with this app is loyal, but I'm not sure how much longer I can remain loyal for lol. Please fix this app!!!!!! It's been too long!!
Very frustrated with this app! I personally thought this would've been the best app for quitting..couldn't even submit my details and select done...(set up my profile) very disappointed.
Downloaded this app and it doesn't get past the page where you put your smoking habits in ,the done option is there but is not highlighted so cannot move forward, disappointed 😑
Couldn't even save my information to my profile to even get started! Tried 3 times but it doesn't save at all. TERRIBLE app when you can't even USE it! NO STARS
App was great at the start but for the past few days it won't open and keeps crashing.
is a good app but needs to be updated keeps crashing and can't leave a message on the community page🤔🤔🤔 not good if your stating out. plus reading other comments you clearly haven't updated this app in a while 😒😒😒
The second I installed, it crashed. Over and over again. Uninstalled 10 minutes later. Good job.
Can the app be updated to support large screen devices, I am using a tablet and app is not optimized for it.
It's great. The only thing is if it had a "I just smoked button" in the best times section, not on the main (home) page because it might be tempting to give in and smoke. But definitely if you put it in the section where the trophies are, it'd be a good way to motivate to do better next time because you can see how well you've done in the past. And it would be more intuitive than having to go into profile settings and starting your quit date/time over again.
