Cut-Down Plan Calculator
Your step-down plan
How the plan is built
Type in how many cigarettes you smoke today and see a week-by-week step-down schedule, the date it reaches zero, and what you keep along the way. No sign-up, nothing stored.
The calculator starts from your real daily number, not a target you wish you were at. The first limit sits just under it, and every following step is the same small cut after the same hold, until the limit reaches zero.
Small, even steps are the point. A Cochrane review of reduction-to-quit found that cutting down before stopping works about as well as stopping abruptly, and it works because each step keeps withdrawal small enough to live with.
Smoless runs this same loop for you: it learns your baseline from one-tap logging, offers the next step only when your recent average is already under your goal, and never raises a goal back up.
Common questions
One or two cigarettes fewer per step, held for about a week, is the pace most people can sustain. From a pack a day that reaches zero in roughly ten to twenty weeks. Faster plans look better on paper and fail more often in practice.
Nothing is lost. Log it, look at the week rather than the day, and keep the same limit a little longer before the next step. The schedule moves; the direction does not.
The plan gives you both: the final step is a date, but it is reached by stepping, not by willpower on one morning. Many people drop the last two or three cigarettes together once they are under five a day, because withdrawal from that level is mild.
Let the app keep the count
Smoless tracks each cigarette with one tap, learns your real baseline, and steps your goal down on this same schedule, at your pace.
