The San Francisco Stop Smoking application works in Spanish or English (go to Settings/General/International/Language on your iPhone and choose English or Español). It helps you discover connections between smoking, your mood, and your day to day life to help you quit and stay quit. This application is an extension of a 13 year project at the University of California, San Francisco and the San Francisco General Hospital to deliver scientifically supported self-help and puts effective tools at your fingertips.

Our team of experts developed and tested this Stop Smoking self-help program delivered via the mail and online. Backed by eight years of clinical research studies, this program has delivered a quit rate comparable to quit rates for the nicotine patch.

Our experts are committed to improving health. This application is part of a broad-based effort at UCSF and SFGH to develop interventions aimed at individuals and their immediate community. Data from this app help support our research and the development of additional solutions for smoking and other health problems.
