Conditions

  • Smoking Cessation
  • Smoking Behaviors

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

StepOne Smartphone Application

This smartphone application provides a 14-day program that delivers the core components of smoking cessation (i.e., counseling, education) and takes advantage of pandemic-accelerated acceptance of virtual care, videoconferencing, remote monitoring, and social networking. The program seeks to move participants from the pre-action stage (not interested in quitting) to the action stage (intention to quit) and incorporates daily reminders, gamification, and models of habit formation to engage users.
