The short version
You enter a quit date, how much you used to smoke or vape and what it cost. The app saves that on your phone and does the maths there. We run no server for this app, so we never receive your quit date, your cravings, your slips or your reasons. The only data that leaves the app is what Google Play needs to run a purchase, described below.
What the app stores on your phone
- Your habit: cigarettes or vape pods per day or week, the price, the currency.
- Your quit date and any restart dates.
- Slips and cravings you log (time, strength, trigger, note), and the reasons you write for quitting.
- Settings: reminder on or off and its time, and a small flag saying whether Pro was active the last time Google Play answered.
This stays in the app's private storage. You can export all of it to a file you choose (Settings, "Export all my data"), import that file again, or remove everything with "Delete all data", which returns the app to a fresh install. Uninstalling the app also removes it. If you have Android's backup turned on, Android may include the app's database in your own Google backup, which is controlled by your device settings.
What we collect
We collect nothing: no account, no name, no email, no location, no contacts, no advertising ID, no photos. The app contains no advertising SDK and no analytics SDK.
| Data | Collected by us? | Shared? |
|---|---|---|
| Quit date, habit, cravings, slips, reasons | No. Stored on your device only. | No |
| Diagnostics (App info and performance), through Google Play Billing | Yes, by Google's billing library, required for purchases to work | No |
Google Play Billing
Purchases (the yearly subscription and the lifetime unlock) are handled entirely by Google Play. The Google Play Billing library in the app may send diagnostic information (app and performance data) to Google so that purchases work and can be restored. We declare this in Google Play's Data safety section as App info and performance, Diagnostics: collected, not shared, required. We never see your payment details. Google's handling of that data is described in Google's privacy policy. You can manage or cancel a subscription at any time in Google Play.
Notifications
The optional daily check-in is a local notification created on your phone. If you decline the permission, everything else keeps working.
Health information
The app is a counter and a diary. It shows milestones from public timelines published by the NHS (UK) and the CDC (US); it is not affiliated with either organisation. It is not a treatment, makes no medical claim and does not replace advice from a doctor or pharmacist. What you enter about your habit is not sent to us or to anyone else.
Children
The app is meant for adults. It is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect anything from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published at this address with a new date.
