For quitting
Quitting doesn't fail on day one. It fails on day eleven.
Committo counts every smoke-free day, even after a slip.
The stressful Friday, the one cigarette — and most apps send you back to zero, so why not smoke the whole pack? Committo counts clean days and treats a slip as a short recovery window. Day eleven starts from strength, not from nothing.
- One tap in the evening: Smoke-free today, confirmed with one tap. That's day eleven.
- The day counts: Its square in the history turns green.
- One slip, one square: The day with the one cigarette stays red. Every other day still counts.
- Your coach notices: It tells you what it sees in your days.
A slip is a window, not a reset
Confirm your clean days with one tap. If you slip, Committo marks a short recovery window and keeps every clean day you've banked — the record shows a human quitting, not a broken streak.

ChallengeThe evidence behind this
We grade what we lean on, and we show the grade. A is settled science; B is real but modest or genuinely contested — we say so rather than quietly leaving it out.
Smoking costs about ten years of life expectancy — the cleanest causal story in all of epidemiology. The hopeful half: quitting before 40 removes about 90% of the excess risk. It is rarely too late for most of the benefit.

The caveat
None that matter. This is the benchmark other claims are graded against.
Across 148 studies and 308,000 people, strong social ties were linked to 50% higher odds of survival — an effect comparable to quitting smoking, and bigger than exercise or weight. That's a meta-analysis, not a wellness blog.

The caveat
Observational; the largest effects come from composite "social integration" measures, not any single behaviour.
