Quit vaping with Vow
Quit vaping without white-knuckling it.
A vape is always in your pocket, which is exactly what makes it hard to put down. Vow gives the craving somewhere else to go: a plan built from your own triggers, your reason on screen when the urge hits, and a Craving Shield that walks you through the next three minutes.
- Tracks
- Pods per day
- Counts
- Money saved, from your pod price
- Methods
- Nicotine replacement, quit date and more
What Vow does for vaping
Built for the way this habit works.
For the urge that comes every twenty minutes
Open the Craving Shield from the Today screen, a widget or your Apple Watch and ride the craving out with guided breathing instead of reaching for the vape.
Triggers, named and planned for
Tell Vow when you vape — after meals, driving, stress, boredom — and your plan gives each trigger its own strategy.
A streak worth protecting
A don't-break-the-chain calendar, achievements and money saved per pod make every clean day visible.

No. Vow is rated 18+ and is written for adults. If you are under 18 and want to quit vaping, talk to a parent, a school counsellor, a doctor or a pharmacist about support made for your age.
Can I quit vaping and smoking at the same time?
Yes. Add them as two habits; each gets its own streak, plan and reason. Tracking more than one habit needs Premium.
Does Vow count nicotine strength?
Vow tracks pods per day and what they cost, which is what drives your plan and your savings. It does not track nicotine strength.
