What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from using the apps may include frustration or stress if technical issues arise or if participants find it challenging to follow the program. Side effects from nicotine replacement therapy can include skin irritation from patches, sleep problems, nausea, heart palpitations, muscle pain and dizziness.

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Smart-T Mental Health+ and NRTExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Smart-T Mental Health provides smoking cessation and mental health content during the pre-quit and post-quit periods to prepare and support participants during their quit attempt. During the pre-quit and post-quit period, the app will also send messages that encourage the use of the nicotine patch and lozenges according to recommended practices. The Smart-T app contains multiple components including an EMA delivery and data transfer system, automated messages based upon EMA responses, and on-demand content. All participants will receive free NRT.
Group II: Smart-T Mental Health and NRTExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Smart-T Mental Health provides smoking cessation and mental health content during the pre-quit and post-quit periods to prepare and support participants during their quit attempt. The Smart-T app contains multiple components including an EMA delivery and data transfer system, automated messages based upon EMA responses, and on-demand content. All participants will receive NRT.
Group III: NCI QuitGuide and NRTActive Control1 Intervention
The National Cancer Institute's QuitGuide app is a free smartphone app and is one of few apps that includes many of the recommendations detailed in the Clinical Practice Guideline. The QuitGuide app aims to help smokers understand their smoking patterns and develop the skills needed to quit smoking. QuitGuide provides content during the pre-quit and post-quit periods to prepare and support participants during their quit attempt. All participants will receive free NRT.
