Frequently asked questions
Is Blou better than Kwit?
It depends on what motivates you. Blou is an iPhone-only subscription app (with a free trial) that shows your own recovery: a photo timeline, lung checks, SOS craving help, and every milestone on one visual timeline. Kwit is built around RPG-style gamification—you level up a character as your quit progresses. Try whichever framing resonates more with how you think about progress.
Is Kwit free?
Kwit offers a free tier with basic tracking and a paid subscription that unlocks full game content and deeper analytics. Check the App Store listing for current pricing.
Which app is better for cravings?
The best craving tool is the one you can open in under 5 seconds. Look for a 1-tap craving log and a fast replacement action you can complete before the urge peaks. Both apps offer craving support—your daily habit of opening it is what matters most.
Do both apps work on Android?
Kwit is available on both iOS and Android. Blou is iPhone-only for now, with no Android version yet.
Should I use a quit app if I'm also using nicotine patches?
Yes—NRT reduces physical withdrawal, and an app helps you handle cue-based cravings. See our guide on quitting with the nicotine patch.
