Quit vaping, quit smoking, or quit nicotine at a pace that actually sticks.
Most quit attempts fail for one reason: willpower alone. Go cold turkey and it works only about 5% of the time - because stopping all at once leaves a brain rewired by nicotine fighting every craving with nothing to cushion the drop.
Puff Pacer is built on the opposite, scientifically studied approach. A personalized taper eases your intake down a little each day, so your brain unlearns the reflex gradually instead of all at once - and your cravings shrink as your body heals. Paired with the right replacements and NRT, that combination has been studied to lift early quit rates to as much as ~60%. You choose the pace and the goal, because the change that lasts is the one you choose - not the one forced on you.
