Inspired by the beloved Tamagotchis of the 90s, NicoKitty offers a unique and engaging way to help you quit smoking. Created from personal experience and a heartfelt motivation to honor a lost loved one, this app transforms your quitting journey into a meaningful and interactive experience.
Take care of your virtual pixel-art cat, a reflection of your health and well-being. Every cigarette you smoke makes your cat angry and distances itself, reminding you of the consequences of your choices. The more you smoke, the angrier the cat becomes, encouraging responsibility and awareness.
Key Features:
- Personalized Smoking Limits: Set daily cigarette limits based on your smoking habits (-5, 5–10, +10 cigarettes), with corresponding thresholds (2, 5, or 7 cigarettes). Exceeding these limits increases your cat’s anger level.
- Daily & Weekly Tracking: Monitor your cigarette intake every day and see your weekly progress at a glance.
- Motivational Mini-Game: Play a fun game that increases your cat’s happiness and lowers its anger, a healthy distraction to help reduce cravings.
- Home Screen Widgets: Quickly add or remove cigarettes smoked directly from your home screen and watch your cat’s mood change in real-time.
- Apple Watch Support: Manage your cigarette count conveniently on your wrist without needing to open your phone.
- Siri Integration: Simply say, “Hey Siri, I smoked a cigarette,” and NicoKitty automatically logs it for you… no taps, no hassle.
Quit smoking not just with willpower, but with compassion and interaction. Let NicoKitty guide you on a journey of personal growth and better health.
