About
I'm a full-stack developer who quit smoking — and I built Quit It because I felt something was missing from my own journey.
When I was trying to quit, I found that almost everything around smoking cessation came wrapped in shame and guilt. The messaging was heavy, the tone clinical, and it rarely felt like the support was designed for a real person going through a real struggle.
I believe support and positive reinforcement are far more effective than shame. The research backs this — and so does my own experience. Quit It is built around that idea: tracking your progress, celebrating small wins, and understanding your own patterns without judgment.
When I quit, I tried every app I could find. Most of them tracked days and savings — useful, but not enough for the hard moments. None of them felt like they were actually on my side.
What I needed was something that would help me understand my patterns, recognise when a craving was building, and remind me why I was doing this — without making me feel like a failure when I slipped. That tool didn't exist, so I built it.
Quit It is free because quitting should be accessible to everyone. Built to support you through the hardest moments — not just the milestones.
