Success Stories:
"I began this program a skeptic, but saw its benefits almost immediately. I went from smoking 10 cigarettes a day, literally afraid to leave the house without a pack and a lighter -- and after 21 days I have been able to stop smoking altogether. This would never have been possible without Craving to Quit.

"[D]uring the couple of weeks I used [Craving to Quit], I learned many skills that I apply on a daily basis. Learning to surf my way through cravings was the best thing I learned because I no longer give in to craving cigarettes like before. I tested this skill while on a recent trip to Las Vegas where smoking is prevalent…I can now say cigarettes are not part of my life as before."

I have really been enjoying the free features but the membership is too expensive. $99 dollars for life membership or $25 per month. That is too expensive for me. I would have much preferred to deal with ads. Beside the price the app is very useful. The design is a bit clunky but I still enjoyed using it. I really hope they forego the membership fee for ads or atleast a more reasonable membership fee. Just read other reviews and saw that you have go register after the 4th day. That's really low.
I didn't sign up after day 3, so didn't get the full benefit. At the very least, it helps you keep track of the smokes. I'll on day 10, so far I'm gradually reducing. The check ins are a little helpful cos they seem to pop up just as the cravings hit, and serves to distract and be more aware. So far so good.
You have to pay 25 bucks to register to use the app
On day 4 a paywall comes down. Apparently we were warned. From that point on, you either pay a hefty lump sum or a dollar a day to follow the program. The suddenness and the high price... It's a bit of a shark attack and a curious business model. I also see, now, that Claritas feels the need to reply to critical reviews. Similar to the sudden and high paywall, this combative tone - 'Me think he doth protest too much' - jars. Attitude leaves sour taste. Torches goodwill. But app good. Tempted to pay.
Great system... I used to smoke 2 packs a day and willing to quit. The 4th day I wasn't even interested in smoking. 19 days without cigarettes today and feeling great and in control of cravings
I'm on day six. Learning the mindfulness techniques which help with my anxiety too. Only thing I noticed so far is that the app has alerted me several times that I have not been on in two days, which is inaccurate. I check in quite a bit daily.
None of the media work...
You click things and they don't respond until about the 10th click. It crashes all the time. makes me want to smoke even more.
Really talks to the addict mind
I can't use the subscription features on my device which is an old first generation MOTO G but I still like the free features. It is a good program.
I was planning to rate it 4-5 stars, but asking for registration the 4th day is just low.
Can't even get it to download error 505. I've done everything in troubleshooting and it still won't work.
They claim this app is free but it wouldn't allow me to create an account without choosing a plan. They offer 2 plans and both cost money.
After smoking regularly for over 10 years and trying everything under the sun to quit including all the replacement therapies and even hypnosis, I gave this a shot. And it'll be 1 year since I quit on 7/15! This is the longest I've ever quit before and I'm so happy that I found this app. Thank you!
Great app actually keep you thinking about your smoking but would be great to not have to pay to use the app to help you quit. Loved it for the first 3 days but unfortunately uninstalling it...not going to pay for an app that would be better free since it actually works would rather have a few random paid ads to watch instead. But GREAT APP OVER ALL
This app helped me CHANGE MY LIFE. Not only did i quit smoking, but it also helped me deal with stress and anxiety. For those who don't want to pay, let me tell you that IT IS WORTH IT. come on, you spend more on cigarrettes. A few days after the 21, i cancelled my subscription, so you dont have to pay forever. I havent smoked a cigarrette in 2 months, and (amazingly) i dont even have cravings.
I love this. Just started using it yesterday. But it now crashes whenever i open it. What do i do?
I would rate this app 5 stars if it was usable with smokeless tobacco users. My husband dips Red Seal and I think he would benefit greatly from this app as I love the concept of using mindfulness. However, the language in the app is specific to cigarettes and I'm not sure it would translate to his cravings. For example, he can't hold a cigarette in his hands and then light it and breathe it in. He can pinch the dip and put it in his lip. He can feel the weight of the can & pack it as a smoker flicks a light
...but none of the media will play - I'm uninstalling it, I might try again another time. Shame.
None of the media works. Very dissapointing re-tried the 'fixed and updated' version but none of the media plays yet :(
The only way to keep it from crashing is to force quit and restart. Its unfortunate because it seems very useful but it's becoming too frustrating to be a benefit.
My app won't open. It opens for like half a second and then automatically closes out. I have been trying for a day now to get it back up but nothing works. I am about ready to delete it
I have had this app for 2 weeks...would be great if it didn't crash all the time...installed and reinstalled MANY times and works for a bit and then crashes again...emailed support and told me there was an update to fix problem...nope...still crashing. I want to quit this appears to be an app that could help but by the # of downloads I see and lack of a properly working app I'm probably cancelling and saving $5.25 a week. Sorry
I know, I know... This app would save you a lot of money in the long run... Your health is worth every penny... But I am still not going to buy it.
But crashes made it less than with it.
App works quite well, I found the exercises really helpful and it's a great new approach to the issue. However I am done with the app and unable to afford the subscription but there seems to be no obvious way to stop them from continuing to charge me? Please help/advise? Will be happy to give 5* once I don't have to pay anymore
Crashes after welcome screen :(
Plays part 1 day 1 during mindfulness audio....
The app won't verify my log in. I've uninstalled reinstalled changed my password and still nothing. Just says verifying.
I was really looking forward to trying this out. Everytime I try to install the app there is an error. I also couldnt find the app to upgrade to. Is it under a different name?
I really get this program, it makes sense to me, I had some trouble with the last update but the tech support worked with me and got it fixed! This version works! I am excited to continue this great work!
Update: HELP ME!!!!! can't sign in! I love the content its really useful but - Please help me it's really sticking - the videos cut half way - I tried uninstalling and reinstalling - and I have enough space on my phone. I have a problem with the back button on my phone closing off the app. Also when the check in notifications come up it should bring get me to the checkin page but all it does is open the app. thanks. Also same problem as bree falato.
Looks good.
The exercises/meditations are helping me manage cravings. But the app resets my CIG count mid day. Sometimes doesn't reset from the day before. Irritating! And I'm already irritated from quitting. Not a good combo.
It was working fine on my s3 until the 7/24 update and now when I launch it the app shows the initial splash graphic and then just a black screen.
Want to give it 5 stars but just getting blank screen
On day 8 so far and the videos over 70 seconds stop playing at that point. But hey, the program is working so far...
The idea is great. The videos stopped every 5 or 10 seconds and I had to hit the play button again. Keep working at it. Its a great idea. I'll keep trying to use it and keep watching for updates.
Please fix your app does not work on Galaxy NT-7100 note 2.

Might would work but a lot of ppl can't afford one month 25$ and one yr over 100$ DONT even download cause it barely tells anything. Than wipes days one videos away next day just go to utube and look up Johnathan Bricker and he's the one who created and mayb can help you quit tht way This might b goof if you can afford. I can't. Its all about the money
