Smoking

According to the NHS, smoking is not only one of the biggest causes of death and illness in the UK, but it also increases your risk of developing more than 50 serious health conditions.

Can apps help you stop smoking?

So, unsurprisingly, quitting smoking not only adds years to your life, but also greatly reduces your chances of developing smoking-related diseases.

If you are trying to stop smoking, there are small lifestyle changes you can make to help you quit, such as changing daily habits, identifying when you crave cigarettes, and seeking out advice and support. Digital technologies, such as apps, can help with changing behaviour in order to quit smoking.

Apps to help you stop smoking include features such as being able to log your cravings and get tips for managing them, motivational tips and advice, setting your own goals for quitting, monitoring the differences that quitting is having on your health and lifestyle, and much more.
