In short

Douse: Quit Smoking is a health app that guides users through cravings with paced 4-7-8 breathing, a haptic rhythm, a personal reminder of their reasons, and a logging step. It supports cold turkey or gradual tapering, and it is aimed at people trying to quit smoking. One standout feature is Glim, a companion that grows brighter the longer the user stays smoke-free.

About

Quitting isn't about willpower in the abstract — it's about getting through the next craving. Douse is built for that exact moment.

WHEN A CRAVING HITS Open Douse and it walks you through a calm, guided ritual instead of leaving you to white-knuckle it: • Paced 4-7-8 breathing with a gentle haptic rhythm you can follow with your eyes closed • A reminder of your real reasons and your own plan • A quick physical tactic to ride out the peak • Log how it went and bank the win Most cravings fade in a few minutes. Douse helps you spend those minutes well.

QUIT YOUR WAY • Go cold turkey with a quit date, or • Taper down gradually with a daily target that glides to zero Slipped? Log it honestly — keep your streak or start fresh. No shame, no lectures.

SEE WHAT IT'S WORTH Watch the payoff add up: • Money saved — and what it could become if you invested it instead • Your body recovering, week by week • Days smoke-free, cravings ridden out, milestones earned
