Quit smoking with help from your phone

QuitmateMESplash.pngStruggling with the new public smoking ban or simply fed up with being addicted to the evil weed? QuitmateME is a Java application which records each cigarette the user smokes and then calculates a quitting regime for them to follow.

The smoker is then encouraged to beat targets set by the software to gradually reduce their daily intake. For instance a 20-a-day smoker could easily reduce their intake to 10 a day in just 10 days.

Monthly, Daily, Hourly and AM/PM reports are provided help understand smoking patterns and motivate users to cut down on their smoking levels.

The QuitmateME Preferences screen also enables users to enter the price (in pence or cents) of a packet of cigarettes, which can then be used to calculate how much is spent/saved while using the application.

The QuitmateME software’s available to download for £5, although there is the option for a seven-day trial costing £1.
