GottaKickit is a smoking cessation plan that uses your iPhone, iPod Touch, or Google Android-based mobile to help you break free of smoking without drugs, patches, potions, or even a whole lot of willpower.

GottaKickit has numerous software features, which you can learn about in the GottaKickit slideshow. To start with, though, here are GKi’s own built-in instructions, which make it as simple as 1–2–3:

The One Unbreakable Rule of GottaKickit is that you must wait to smoke until GKi tells you that the time has come. If GKi is running, it will chime or vibrate to alert you. You don’t have to smoke immediately, but the countdown to the following cigarette will not begin until you do.

As you light up in real life, flick the lighter knob in GKi. The Now smoking sign appears and the on-screen cigarette starts to burn. After a few minutes, the countdown to your next cigarette will begin.

Sometimes it might be hard to fit your GKi smoking schedule into the pattern of your daily life. When that happens, you can use the Advance button to restore order. Each time you click the button, your next smoke only is brought nearer by 15 minutes. The paid/upgraded version of GKi allows up to five advances per day; the free version allows two.
