Question 1

Is there a stop-smoking tracker that does not require an account?

Accepted Answer

Ashless needs no account, email address or sign-up. Your quit date, pack price and daily cigarette count are stored in your own browser and in the page URL, so they never reach a server. The page loads no analytics and no third-party scripts.

Question 2

What happens to your body after you stop smoking?

Accepted Answer

Heart rate and blood pressure fall to normal within 20 minutes, blood oxygen returns to normal within 8 hours, taste and smell recover over 48 hours, lung function rises about 30 percent by one month, heart disease risk halves at one year, and stroke risk matches a non-smoker's at five years. Ashless tracks 29 such milestones from 20 minutes to 20 years.

Question 3

How much money do you save by quitting smoking?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your pack price and how much you smoked. Ashless computes it from the two numbers you enter and shows the running total in your own currency, in any of 16 supported currencies.

Question 4

Does Ashless work offline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Ashless is an installable progressive web app. After the first load it runs without a network connection, because the counter and milestones are computed entirely in the browser.

Question 5

How much does Ashless cost?

Accepted Answer

Nothing. It is free, has no ads, no paywall and no in-app purchases, and the source is published under the MIT licence.
