Your clean time, and the two hours your cravings tend to come.

The idea

What you understand can't own you.

Watch a craving rise and break, and it loses its hold.

The habit was doing a job for you. Take it away and the job comes back, and you get to fill it on purpose.

61sources, every one readable in the app
5substances, each with its own timeline
6things can ever leave your phone, each only when you send it
0accounts. Nothing to sign in to
The setup screen asking What are you quitting, listing
                    Smoking, Vaping, Alcohol, Cannabis and Caffeine, each with
                    its own icon. It closes on the line: What you understand
                    can't own you.

The counter

A clock, not a scoreboard.

Days clean. Money saved. And underneath, a body healing on schedule.

A counter that resets to zero has told you the last forty days did not happen. They happened. After a slip the button says what it does: Restart my clock, keep my history.

The timeline keeps the mark where your last run reached, and says New ground from here the day you pass it. Your best run, your savings and your badges all stay.

Quitting two things at once? Each one gets its own clock, and a slip on one never touches the other.

The Recovery systems card on Today. Carbon monoxide
                      clearance, heart rate and blood pressure, and taste and
                      smell are marked Recovered; sleep quality reads 88

The Habits screen with two quits. A combined card reads All 2
                    habits combined, total saved $459 and overall recovery 62
                    percent. Below it, Smoking at 30 days with its own saved

                    11 days with its own, next milestone in 3 days.

What is healing, and two quits at once.

The timeline

Read day three before you live it.

Every hour of your quit, written out ahead of time. What is healing, what you might feel, and what helps now.

The studies sit under each entry.

Each milestone lands at its real minute on your clock and quotes your own why back to you.

On a patch or gum? Say so. The nicotine part waits, honestly, while the rest of you keeps healing.

The app's first words, at minute one. Clear them out first: the pack, the spare in the car, the lighters, the ashtrays.

The recovery timeline with every milestone closed, thirty days in, so each row is ticked. The first day's last rows: 16 hours, The brain renegotiates. 20 hours, Almost a full day. 24 hours, One full day. Then The first week: 30 hours, Nicotine essentially gone. 36 hours, Deep in the tunnel. 48 hours, Taste and smell return. 60 hours, Airways relaxing. 72 hours, The peak passes. 4 days, Energy rising. 5 days, The fog lifts. 6 days, Waves flattening, with the round SOS button beside it.
The recovery timeline's twenty-minute milestone, open.
                        Inside it: What's healing, heart rate and blood pressure
                        begin dropping back toward your true baseline. What you
                        might feel, you feel fine, still riding the decision.
                        What helps now, a paragraph telling you to clear out the
                        pack, the spare in the car, the lighters and the ashtrays
                        while you still feel fine, and to decide now what you
                        will do when the first craving lands.

Every milestone as a row, then one opened. The timeline starts the minute you set a quit date.

Apple Health

You already have a before.

Your watch was keeping a record before you decided. Put it to work.

Heart, lungs, breath and blood, charted from your own numbers before you quit, with what the research expects drawn beside them. Your chart is allowed to disagree. Heart rate variability moves first, within days to weeks of stopping.

Needs an Apple Watch or similar. Read fresh from Apple Health, never stored.

The Health tab. A heading reading There is no improved you
                        at the end of this, and under it a resting heart rate
                        card, charting a dashed pre-quit baseline, a marker at the
                        day you stopped, and a falling line after it.
A heart rate variability card with its chart, and beneath
                        it a block headed What research expects reading: nicotine
                        suppresses HRV, studies show it climbing within days to
                        weeks of stopping, one of the earliest measurable wins.
                        Evidence 26.

In the app's own words: there is no improved you at the end of this. Only you, uninterrupted.

Craving SOS

A craving is not a command.

It rises, peaks and passes in minutes, whether you fight it or not.

One clock rides the whole wave. You don't get to call it over early; you outlast it. Open SOS and start the clock. Breathe, or pick any tool, until it hits zero and says Outlasted.

Or play Snake. Keeping your eyes busy measurably blunts a craving, and the study behind it is in the app.

Then read, in plain words, why the pull exists at all.

You're the one watching. It's the one passing.

The Craving SOS screen. It opens: this wave will crest and
                        fade in a few minutes whether or not you fight it. Stay busy
                        while it dies. Pick a tool. A card headed This wave, timed
                        shows 4:47 running over the line: one clock rides the whole
                        wave, you don't get to call it over early; you outlast it.
                        The research paragraph beneath closes on Evidence 25, 22,
                        29, 30. Then a group headed Sit with it, its first tools
                        Breathe and Body scan in frame.
The Craving SOS kit, one screen below the clock. Under Sit with it, six tiles: Breathe, ride the wave with the box breath. Body scan, find where the craving lives. 5 senses, count your way back into the room. Big questions, one question with no bottom. The why, why this pull exists at all. Study, The slave who owned himself, a story of endurance. Under Distract yourself, two games: Snake and Maze chase.

The clock, then the kit. Study is the pack's daily reading, if you turn one on.

The craving log

Your cravings keep a schedule.

You may as well have a copy of it.

Log a craving in seconds: what was happening and who was around. It blames none of it. After about four logs the charts begin. In time the app names the two hours yours gather in and what weighs most, and, if you ask, tells you before the next one.

One question at night, if you want it: how did today go? Skip it and nothing breaks. Some mornings, one line at the top: something your log just learned.

When your log can't back a claim, the app says nothing. Silence is a reading.

It reads your last thirty days, or your last eight of that weekday for a weekday pattern.

Rate them, and see this week against last. Cravings getting weaker is the most motivating fact a log can hold, and this is where yours shows it.

The Log tab. A heading reading A craving is not a command,
                    over the explanation that a craving is a learned response
                    which builds, crests and falls within minutes. Under it,
                    Past 7 days, 7, was 3; a Craving window card reading 8 PM to
                    10 PM; and a craving strength chart reading 3.6 of 5 over
                    the last seven days.
The Log tab scrolled to a card headed Who was around: a bar for Alone at 4, Partner at 2, Brother at 1 and Workmates at 1, with the line Read from 8 of 10 logged cravings, the rest were one-tap logs, which never ask. Beneath it, When yours gather, 30 days: a day of hourly bars with two amber ones in the evening, and the sentence 7 of your last 10 cravings landed in the 8 PM to 10 PM stretch. Then Patterns: Boredom and Stress often fire together, 4 times so far. Plan for the pair, not just each one.

The window, and who was around.

Apple Watch

Log it from your wrist.

A craving doesn't wait for your phone. Neither does the log.

One press on your watch and it's logged. Add how strong it was, what was happening and who was around, or don't.

The SOS breath runs on the watch itself, with no phone in the room.

The watch glance: NICOTINE-FREE, a running count of 30
                      days. NEXT: 6 WEEKS, 11 days 23 hours away, over a Log
                      craving button.
The watch's Add detail sheet, after the press has logged
                      the craving: How strong? over five numbered chips, 1 to 5,
                      then What was happening? with Stress as the first answer,
                      and a Skip button at the top.

Rebuild

Put something real where the habit was.

The habit was standing in for four things: a reward, company, a point to the day, and being good at something.

Rebuild each one for real. Every move says two things up front: how long it takes and how much nerve it asks. The scale rates the move, never you.

One move says it all: sit with yourself for ten minutes, then twenty, then an hour. That restlessness is the exercise, not a sign to stop.

The community board lives here too. Moves from people who are quitting, each read by a person before it is public.

Badges are earned by what you do, never by the clock. A slip told within the hour earns one, and no slip takes one back.

The catalogue in its grid view, with section, nerve and
                        basis filter rows. Cards reading Move your body, 10 min,
                        Quiet, marked On your list; Get into nature, 20 min,
                        Quiet; Savor one thing, 1 min, Quiet; Cook a real meal,
                        45 min, Quiet; Take it cold, 3 min, Quiet; and Take an
                        awe walk, 15 min, Quiet.
The Community board. The lede reads Suggest a move,
                        vote up what worked for you, and add any move to your
                        list straight from its page, over four posts with their
                        vote counts under the Competence, Meaning, Connection
                        and Reward categories.

Privacy

Nothing leaves unless you send it.

No account. No sign-in. Your record stays on your phone unless you send it yourself.

Six things can leave, each only when you choose: an iCloud backup, an anonymous post, an anonymous vote, a report, a feedback message, or a support conversation. That is the whole list.
