Two numbers. Days clean, money kept.
Exhale counts up from your last vape and prints what you have not spent beside it. That is the whole screen — no dashboard behind it, no second tab, nothing arranged to keep you there.
It is built for the bad ten minutes, not the anniversary. Open it, read the two figures, close it. Nothing asks you to post it, defend it, or say what you were on.
§ I — The program
What Exhale holds, what it refuses to do with it, and the promise attached to the price.
Days since your last one, and the money you did not hand over for it. Those are the two figures, set on one screen, at a size you can read without your glasses at three in the morning.
There is no chart under them, no card suggesting what to try next, and no second screen holding the good part back. You came to read a number. Read it and go.
The screenMost quit apps zero you out the night it goes wrong and file that under motivation. Exhale takes the position that the forty days happened, because they did.
A slip marks one day. The count holds where it is and picks up from the next clean one. Nothing on the screen changes tone at you, and nothing is written in red.
No resetDisposables, pods, pouches, the tin you kept in the car — the counter does not ask and does not need to know. You set the last time, and it counts from there.
The money figure works the same way: you tell it once what the habit cost you a week, and it never asks again.
All of itThere is no feed, no cohort, no coach, no streak anyone else can see. Nobody is told when you open it, and nobody is told when you do not.
There is one reminder, off until you turn it on, at an hour you choose. Nothing arrives at nine in the evening to ask how today went.
PrivateOne payment of $24.99. Not a trial that turns into a charge, not a tier with a better version of your own two numbers behind it. You buy the counter and the counter is yours, through every release that follows.
Thirty days, money back, no reasons asked. If it turns out you wanted something louder, or something with a programme in it, write and the payment comes back — and the count stays on your device either way, because it was never anywhere else.
We will not add an account later, we will not add advertising later, and we will not sell the company's word on that to someone who intends to break it.
The house's wordThe measure of a quit counter is not the morning you hit ninety days. It is whether you are willing to open the thing on the evening it went badly — which is the only evening the number was ever for. Day One, No. 01 in the same register, does this for drinking; a sibling, not a next step.
Standing prohibitions
Five things Exhale will not do, held as terms of the programme rather than as a roadmap that can quietly change.
§ II — The counter
The whole programme, bought outright, on the day you buy it.
$24.99
Pay once and the counter is yours — every release after it, for as long as it keeps counting. There is nothing to renew, nothing to forget, and nothing to cancel at two in the morning on the worst possible night to be looking at a settings screen.
The terms
§ III — Questions
The four questions people actually send before they will put this on a phone that other people occasionally pick up.
Both, and it never asks you which. Exhale counts the time since the last one and the money that did not go out with it, and neither figure depends on what the habit was. Disposables, refillable pods, Zyn and every other pouch, or a mixture that changed three times along the way — you set the last time once and it counts from there.
One day is marked and the count holds where it is. It does not reset, it does not show a broken streak, and nothing in the app changes tone at you. The next clean day, the figure moves again. A slip costs a day; it has never cost the history, and it never will.
Not from us. No account is ever required, so there is no record of you at this end to leak, sell, or be asked for — and no confirmation email landing in a shared inbox. On the phone the app is called Exhale and shows two figures and a date; nothing on that screen names vaping, nicotine, or quitting. There is one reminder, off unless you switch it on, at an hour you pick.
Because free counters are paid for somehow — by advertising sold against people at their lowest, by a subscription that arrives when the trial ends, or by a community whose engagement is the product. A subscription to a quit app also has a quiet problem: it is worth more to the seller the longer you are still quitting. Exhale takes $24.99 once, and after that has no reason to want anything from you. That is the whole business model, stated plainly.
The register
Be written in for the day Exhale opens.
One address, kept on our ledger and used once: the day the counter ships. No newsletter follows it, and it is never attached to a count.
