Apparently Gamification Can Help You Quit Smoking Now…


Gamification — is there anything it can’t do? Developer Esteve Aguilera has created a new app designed to use gamification style techniques to help people stop smoking. Any chance of making one to help me quit Pepsi Max?

The app is called QuitNow! and does numerous different things, like track how many days you’ve gone without smoking, how much money you’ve saved, etc. Of course, it does depend on you being completely honest about how much you’ve been smoking!

Interestingly, the app also informs you of other milestones — like informing users when they’ve regained their sense of smell (after two days) — and will pepper you with inspiring facts about smoking and solid reasons for quitting.

The app is available on Android. For more info head here.
