I'm not a smoker but I found an iPhone app that might just help some people quit smoking. It's free so there is nothing to lose, and much to be gained. For starters, if most smokers quit, they would save enough money to pay for all their iPhone expenses and download a huge number of quality paid apps from the iTunes store. Not to mention a healthier and longer life!
GottaKickit (GKI) helps people transition to a new life as a non-smoker. Following the program of controlled smoking, your cigarette cravings will gradually dissipate until you walk away from them as a non-smoker, or ex-smoker as most never-smoker types like to call it. The iphone app does have some flexibility in case you can't get a break at an exact moment, but to truly reap the benefits of the program they suggest sticking as closely as possible to the plan.
The app looks simple enough to set-up and follow. They give you an estimate of a day they call "2C" which is when you reach 2 cigarettes a day. A milestone as you are so close then to giving up completely.
You can review your smoking habits and see the progress you have make.
This iPhone app literally does KICK BUTT!
I like it! It makes me want to take up smoking just so I can use it. The application is aimed at a fairly small target audience however, so I doubt it will ever make top 25.
