DH launches iPhone app to help smokers quit

A new iPhone app that helps people to stop smoking has been launched by the Department of Health.

Available from iTunes, the smokefree website and NHS Choices, the iPhone app will provide daily hints and tips to manage cravings, and keep a running tally on how much money quitters have saved since they stopped smoking.

The app also tracks the number of days, hours and minutes since quitting, and includes a direct link to the stop smoking helpline so quitters can speak with an adviser when they need to and help find local NHS Stop Smoking Services.
