What NHS services offer
NHS Stop Smoking services and local clinics provide free advice, nicotine replacement on prescription where appropriate, and structured support from trained advisers.
If you want clinical guidance, patches, gum, or champix/varenicline eligibility, start with your GP or the NHS Better Health quit hub.
What apps offer
Apps fill the gap between appointments, the 3pm craving when no adviser is on the phone. Timers, messages, streaks, and anonymous community at the exact moment you want nicotine.
They are not a replacement for medical care. They are support for the minutes that decide whether you slip.
How to combine both
Use NHS for the plan and products. Use Quitt for the cravings between. Many people do both, no rule says pick one.
- GP or NHS adviser for NRT or medication questions
- Quitt for real-time craving timers and AI grounding
- Community feed for anonymous peer support, not clinical advice
- Relapse logging without shame, data for you, not a scoreboard
Why Quitt is paid
Quitt is £6.99/month, quitt ai, community feed, and servers cost money to run. No ads, no data selling, no upsells.
