New in 2.0: meet the all-new Kiko! 3-minute craving SOS, Apple Health, a Live Activity on your Lock Screen and a weekly review. Craving SOS and the path are free.
You don't have to quit smoking alone. Kiko is a little cactus who quits with you. Every smoke-free day is a drop of water for Kiko, and as you get stronger, Kiko grows.
A cactus knows how to live in the desert on very little water. So will you. When a craving hits, you breathe. If you slip, you get back up. And every day you watch your body heal a little more. Cactiva 2.0 was rebuilt from the ground up for this journey.
ONE TAP WHEN A CRAVING HITS
Tap the heart in the middle of the screen and Kiko breathes with you for 3 minutes: in 4, hold 4, out 4, rest 4. Your own reasons, a voice note in your own voice and a one-tap message to someone you trust are right there. A craving comes and goes like a wave. You only need to ride it out for a few minutes.
KIKO GROWS WITH YOU
Ten levels, from Seed to the Great Oasis. Small daily quests, streaks, water drops, badges and a garden of your own. Water Kiko every day, pick a pot, decorate your garden. Quitting isn't a punishment. It's a game that gets a little greener every day.
YOUR BODY IS HEALING
Every stop on the Desert Path is a real recovery happening in your body: lungs, circulation, taste and smell, energy. See how long until the next stop and celebrate when you reach it.
SEE WHAT YOU'VE SAVED
Smoke-free days, money saved, cigarettes not smoked and estimated life regained, all on one screen. Set piggy bank goals with the money you keep and treat yourself.
NOT READY YET? GO AT YOUR OWN PACE
If you're not ready to quit today, that's okay. Kiko builds a plan with you that cuts down week by week: today's limit, days until quit day and a quit-day checklist. Every cigarette you skip becomes a drop for Kiko.
KNOW WHEN AND WHY YOU SMOKE
Rebuilt charts by week, month and year, with your target line and average. Find your hardest hour and your most common trigger (coffee, stress, after meals, alcohol…). In the weekly review, Kiko looks at how it went and suggests easing or speeding up your plan.
SLIPPED? NO SHAME
One cigarette doesn't erase the path. Your streak shield protects your streak and a 48-hour comeback quest gets you back on track. Kiko never scolds. Kiko stays.
ALWAYS ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN
Home and Lock Screen widgets show your smoke-free days and money saved at a glance. The Craving SOS widget opens the breathing screen in one tap. A Live Activity shows the time until your next recovery on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
APPLE HEALTH AND BACKUP
Breathing sessions are saved to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes. Back up your progress to a file and pick up where you left off on a new phone.
FREE FOR EVERYONE
The craving screen, Kiko and the Desert Path are always free for everyone. No sign-up needed; your progress is stored on your phone.
