We are Tobacco Treatments Specialists and the TQ App Bundle contains tools we use with patients who come to us to quit smoking or stop dipping/chewing.

This is not your typical “quitting app.” We developed the TQ App Bundle so that BOTH tobacco users who are trying to quit, AND health care providers like doctors, nurses, dentists, tobacco treatment specialists, health educators, and counselors - who help people quit - have access to these tools.

For Tobacco Users: We do this professionally and we wish all our patients came to us having used the TQ Apps. We wish everybody who smokes/dips would go through the 4 TQ Apps and start using our Quit Tracker. Then armed with this information, contact a tobacco treatment specialist, attend a quitting workshop, or call a quit line (go to “Help Me Quit” on the TobaccoQuitter.com support site) and get on a quitting plan that is tailored for YOU. Keep using the Quit Tracker and if you can’t get it to zero, try to reduce as much as possible, and keep trying. Get help if you need it.

If you want an app that: tells you when to smoke/dip; connects you to facebook and twitter so you can blast your success & failures to the entire world; hypnotizes you; scares you with gross pictures; or praises you at milestones, please do not buy this app. Some people find those things helpful and that’s great. In our experience, the most helpful things are the educational tools we built into the TQ Apps and using a logger like the TQ Quit Tracker. We literally wrote the app that we wish every person used before they came to us. Plus after you’ve quit, you can still use the TQ App tools on your friends and relatives.

For Health Care Providers: The TQ App Bundle keeps several important tools at your fingertips. No matter what medical field you are in, many of your patients use tobacco. The TQ Apps can help you have more effective interactions with them. See http://tobaccoquitter.com/content/how-help-your-patients-quit-tq-apps for details of how to use the TQ Apps in a clinical setting.
