Quit It

If youre a smoker, you probably already know all about the nasty health consequences. But it probably doesnt stop you from lighting up. But this app's approach is different. It shows you the hit your wallet takes every time you get another pack. Even better Quit It calculates how much money you save each time you dont smoke. Think of it as extra financial incentive to kick nicotine and tobacco (and save for something far better).
