SmartQuit Program for Smoking Cessation

Study of SmartQuit, a Smartphone-Based Smoking Cessation Program

This trial investigates how well a smartphone-based smoking cessation program called SmartQuit works to help patients stop smoking. SmartQuit is an smartphone application-based smoking cessation program that includes a defined program consisting of interactive evidence-based exercises for dealing more effectively with urges to smoke, a place to track desired behaviors, personalized plans for quitting, and a certificate of completion once the recommended program components are completed. SmartQuit may help patients quit smoking, lower healthcare costs and reduce premature tobacco-related deaths.
