Frequently asked questions

Understanding Smokido

How does Smokido work?

You tell Smokido how many cigarettes you currently smoke each day. Smokido then suggests a gradual reduction at your own pace — for example, 1 or 2 fewer cigarettes per week, depending on the pace you choose.

The app also helps you gradually increase the time between cigarettes, better understand your habits, and replace some cravings with simple, positive activities.

At any time, you can go to Profile → My current pace and adjust the settings to fit your current situation: change your cigarette target, the interval between cigarettes, your reduction pace, and other settings related to your journey.

How do I log a cigarette?

From Home, tap “Log a cigarette”. You can note what triggered the craving (stress, coffee, boredom...) and how many cigarettes you smoked. This helps you better understand your habits — without judgement.

What are cigarette replacement activities?

When you feel a craving, “Replace this cigarette” suggests a short activity to do instead: drink water, take a walk, breathe, exercise, meditate...

These activities serve two purposes:

  • they help break automatic habits linked to smoking by creating a short pause between the craving and your usual response;
  • they also help you build new, healthier habits into your daily life — such as reading a little each day, moving more, or creating a pleasant morning or evening routine.

3 activities are free. The other 6 activities, along with the ability to create your own custom activities, are part of Smokido Premium.

What is the timer for?

Once you choose an activity, the full-screen timer helps you stay with it from start to finish, with a progress ring and encouragement from Puff. You can also minimize it to a mini-player so you can keep using the app, or stop it if needed.

Why is the Wellness section useful?

The Wellness section complements Smokido's day-to-day support. It helps you better understand your habits, discover alternatives to cigarettes, and gradually build more positive responses into your daily life.

What notifications does Smokido send?

Smokido only sends local notifications on your phone — for example, an evening reminder. It does not send push notifications from a server. You can turn notifications on or off at any time in Settings → Notifications.

Premium and subscription

What do I get with Smokido Premium?

Home, Health, Money Saved, Insights, and AI Coach are free. Smokido Premium gives you 6 additional activities, the ability to create custom activities, full access to Progress (charts, history, projections), the tips library, and PDF export/sharing.

How does the free trial work?

If a free trial is available, its exact length will be shown on the Smokido Premium screen. You won't be charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel at any time beforehand through your app store.

I changed phones — how do I restore my Premium subscription?

Go to Settings → Restore purchases. Your subscription is linked to your app store account. If you reinstall Smokido using the same account, your Premium subscription will usually be recognized automatically. If it isn't, use “Restore purchases”.
