About SmokeShift
Hey, I'm Andreas—an ex-smoker who built this app to help you achieve what I did: break free from smoking for good.
My Story
I get it—quitting smoking isn't easy. I've been in your shoes, and I know how overwhelming it can feel. You've probably tried before, and maybe it didn't stick. But here's the thing: this time can be different.
After years of smoking and multiple failed attempts to quit, I finally broke free. And I built SmokeShift because I wanted to give others the tools and support I wish I'd had during my own journey.
I've combined my personal experience with the latest in behavioral science and AI technology to create an app that meets you where you are—whether you want to quit cold turkey or prefer a gradual reduction approach.
Since launch, SmokeShift has helped over 10,000 users on their quit journey, with an 85% success rate among those who use the app consistently for 30 days or more. I'm proud of every single success story.
— Andreas, Founder & Ex-Smoker

Frequently Asked Questions
Is SmokeShift free to use?
Yes! SmokeShift offers a comprehensive free tier with progress tracking, community access, craving tools, and 2 AI Coach messages per day. Pro features like 20 messages per day, gradual reduction plans, and ad-free experience are available through affordable subscription plans.
How does the AI Coach work?
Our AI Coach uses advanced language models to provide personalized advice, motivation, and coping strategies. It learns from your patterns and provides contextual support when you're experiencing cravings or need encouragement.
What's the difference between cold turkey and gradual reduction?
Cold turkey means quitting smoking completely from your quit date. Gradual reduction (a Pro feature) allows you to slowly decrease your daily cigarette count over time, which some users find more manageable.
Is my data secure?
Absolutely. We use Google Firebase with industry-standard encryption for all data in transit and at rest. We are GDPR compliant and never sell your personal information. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
Can I cancel my subscription anytime?
Yes, you can cancel your Pro subscription at any time through your app store (Google Play or App Store). You'll continue to have Pro access until the end of your current billing period.
How do I contact support?
