What is LastQUIT™?
LastQUIT™ is a smoking cessation tool, designed to tell you the positive effects of quiting (eg. Time away from cigarettes, Cigarettes not smoked, Money saved, and potential life restored). The application is designed for new quitters, and veteran quitters alike. It can be completely configured to fit every person's individual preferences, and styles. As an added bonus, if there are many people sharing a quit meter on one computer, it will track as many profiles as you have hard drive space. When one user is done using the computer, and another starts using it, it can be easily switched from one profile to another.
Why should I choose LastQUIT™?
Allows stats to be written to a text/signature file so that quit statistics can be automatically added to the signature file when sending electronic mail with supported email clients.
The system tray icon now flashes when you've reached a milestone! It also flashes with the "Hourly Chime" feature (if enabled).
Group totals can now be placed into the clipboard to be printed or sent via email, posted to a web page, etc.
When a profile is deleted all milestones, alerts, and journal entries for that profile are also deleted.
Displaying quit smoking statistics can now be shown in an extended format. (example: "1 year 2 months, 3 weeks") instead of "1Y 2M 3W". This option is available for every profile and can be configured seperately so that each user profile has the option of turning on or off this feature.
Import/export feature to enable the profile backup and restore ability. All personal settings can be included or not included at the preference of the user.
Added an option in the advanced tab entitled "minimize to system tray". This option will allow you to quickly (in one step instead of two) hide the taskbar icon, and minimize the application to the system tray. Double clicking the system tray icon also still performs this feature, so there are now two ways to accomplish this; manual, and automatic.
Added a "Visual Milestones" option. You can now see a visual notification message (if enabled) when your milestones occur. This new option can be found in the ADVANCED tab.
LastQUIT™ calculates time without cigarettes in years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds for your convenience.
Hot Pasting is available via a user specified Hot Key. Press the user defined hot key, and your statistics are immediately pasted into the application you're working in.
Tracks an unlimited number of quit profiles (limited only by available hard drive space).
Built in Milestone Reminders™ to tell you when a goal in your quit has been met.
Customize milestones with "Alerts", adding sound files to your milestone events.
An attractive, intuitive design.
Customize which milestones you would like to be reminded of, and the sound file that should be played to alert you of your goal being met.
Optional "Hourly Chime" for new quitters as a short term goal reminder, for increased self-esteem.
The InfoCenter™ will tell you what to expect during your quit (mentally, physically, and emotionally), and give you many articles on the effects of cigarette smoking, and the damage they cause. As well as the benefits you can expect from quitting now.
Create your own custom Milestone Reminders™ to make a point in your quit something special to be remembered. There is no limit to milestones, or custom milestones. Create as many as you'd like.
LastQUIT™ is the most configurable quit meter available.
Customize your display string to your preference. (I have been quit for ..., etc).
If you have slipped in your quit, your slip time can be deducted from your quit to avoid a quit meter reset, and to show your total quit time. This is to help remind of the positive non-smoking time, and to increase morale.
Keep a journal of your Quit. Each user has their own journal, and you can record up to 30,000 characters per day!
Copy quit statistics quickly to the Clipboard, to paste on the web, email, or to your support group!
Articles can be added to the InfoCenter™ to keep all Quit Smoking information handy, and in one convenient location.
LastQUIT™ is Year 2000 (Y2K) Compliant.
LastQUIT™ automatically handles Leap Years, and daylight savings time.
Use ToolTips to help learn the program faster and easier. ToolTips can be turned on or off for any user, and those settings are profile independant. For example: You do not like ToolTips, but your wife does, now you can both be happy, and set them to your own individidual specifications, without compromising the happiness of the other.
Many InfoCenter™ articles are included to share knowledge, tips and tricks, and other quit smoking information.
Many Sound (.WAV) files have been added to the meter to be associated with your Milestone Reminders™.
