Description
My QuitBuddy was updated in late May 2025 to provide a new user experience and support even more people in their quitting journey.
- If you are having issues opening My QuitBuddy (e.g., seeing a blank screen), please ensure that you update to the most recent version. - If you are unable to proceed through the app, please check your text size settings, as some people are having issues when using larger text sizes. - If you are experiencing issues with your quit date and/or quit progress tracking, please select ‘Already Started’ when the app asks when you quit. Then enter your original quit date (and other details like costs) so the app can calculate how long it has been since you quit, and your progress. - If you have already selected a different quit date, re-install the app so you can fill out your original details. Please note that reinstalling the app will delete any stored data such as journal entries or motivations. For privacy purposes, My QuitBuddy is not able to adjust or recover lost data.

This is the best app out there to help with quitting! THANK YOU! I am now 80 days vape-free thanks to this app. I had been trying for over 2 years to quit before this, but no other apps I tried helped me in the way this one has. My favorite part of it was when I got really stressed out, reading through everyone's messages of support and responses to those reaching out for help - I found this to be a really positive motivation to remain on track, and a great distraction when the cravings hit :)

This has been incredibly helpful in my journey to quit smoking. When I feel a craving I look at the app and see how far I've come

Day 6 and I am liking this app. It's a handy little mental health companion to travel through your quit journey. I do suggest that the app allows for dark/night screen changes for the light sensitive.

For the 3rd attempt I cannot move further than the notifications settings. I allowed notifications. But the App WILL NOT MOVE PAST THIS POINT! I've tried over the past month, without progressing. Any suggestions on how this is supposed to be of help? Right now it is failing, causing massive frustration.

I'm quitting successfully and this app has NOT helped me. The automated messages the app sends are annoying to me especially one today which told me something like I'm not at risk of fire from exploding vapes anymore ! The health information provided is overly basic. The app assumes that one is nicotine free once quitting, however people who have quit smoking or vaping may be using nicotine replacement therapy. The Aust govt could do a better app. Happily uninstalled app today.

I quit May 28, 2015. With this new update, all my info has disappeared, but when trying to re-enter it, the app won't let me set the date. I can set the year to 2015, but the day and month automatically spin back to today's date (1 Nov) Dev reply is a daft. If it's only a 10yr counting app, then why does the date spinner list years that go even further back.
