An app to quit vaping, built for how a vape is actually used

Yes, there is an app built to help you quit vaping. Nicoxit is a quit-nicotine app for vapes, cigarettes, hookah and IQOS. It takes you through a guided journey that works on the reasons you keep reaching for the vape, so stopping doesn't rest on willpower. You keep vaping along the way and quit at the end.

Why vaping needs its own approach

It never ends. A cigarette has a beginning and an end. A vape doesn't: a few pulls at your desk, a few more later, all day. There's no moment where it's clearly finished.

The dose adds up. In a 2025 study by Benowitz and colleagues, the liquid in one JUUL pod corresponded to roughly 15 cigarettes' worth of nicotine. Devices range from about 600 to 5,000 puffs.

It never felt like smoking. No smell, no ash, no packet to count. The belief that it doesn't really count can be what let the habit form in the first place.

The first days are real. When daily vapers who used to smoke stopped for six days in a 2020 study, withdrawal symptoms went up. In a small 2026 study, craving had dropped by day 3, and the desire to vape by day 4.

How Nicoxit handles vaping

You track puffs, not pods. Tell the app how many puffs your device holds, how long it lasts and what it costs. Days free, puffs avoided and money saved are counted from that, so "1,400 puffs avoided" means something.
The "it doesn't count" belief is part of the work. The journey takes apart the beliefs that kept vaping feeling harmless and always within reach.
You plan for the moments that catch you. Day 6 builds an if-then plan for the exact situations where you reach for the vape.
You don't stop before you start. You keep vaping during the journey and quit at the end.
Help at the hard moment. Quinn, the in-app AI quit coach, already knows your triggers and your plan.
A slip costs nothing you've already earned. Days free never reset, and the money you've saved isn't wiped.

Who it's for

Adults 18 and over who vape and want to stop, including people who also smoke cigarettes. Nicoxit is a psychology-based programme, not therapy or medical treatment. If you're pregnant, being treated for a mental health condition or taking prescription medication, talk to your doctor before changing your nicotine use.

Questions

What is the best app to quit vaping?
Look for one built for vaping, not a cigarette counter with a vape option. Nicoxit tracks puffs, and its guided journey works on the reasons you keep vaping. It's on Google Play and the App Store.

How long does it take to quit vaping?
In a 2020 study of daily vapers who stopped, withdrawal rose and then eased. In a small 2026 study, craving had dropped by day 3. In our view, what brings people back weeks later is the beliefs, and that is what Nicoxit works on. Read What Happens When You Quit Vaping

Do I have to stop vaping before I start?
No. You keep vaping during the journey and quit at the end, once the reasons have stopped making sense.

Is vaping legal in India?
No. Vapes have been banned in India since 2019, so devices sold there are unregulated and the nicotine strength on the label may not match what's inside. Read Is Vaping Illegal in India?

What if I smoke cigarettes too?
The journey works on the beliefs behind both. The tracker counts the form you choose, and you can switch.

Nicoxit is on Google Play and the App Store.
