Article Synopsis
- Mobile health apps, like the Kwit app for smoking cessation, can provide important therapeutic resources, but their practical effectiveness and user engagement in everyday life is still uncertain.
- This study examined how engaged users of two versions of the Kwit app (basic vs. premium) are in a smoking cessation program and how it affects their motivation to quit.
- Results showed a higher engagement rate in the premium version and differences in users' motivations, with premium users more often citing intrinsic reasons like well-being and future planning as motivations for quitting.
