A craving is just a wave.
It almost always passes.
ebbwave teaches you to ride the wave instead of fighting it — with a guided session for the 3 minutes that matter, and proof of every clean day after.
Built for the moment the urge hits
A guided session for the 3 minutes that matter
Cravings peak fast and almost always pass. When one hits, ebbwave walks you through it — a live curve of your urge, paced breathing, and your own if-then plan. Make the session yours: pick a wave style, set 3 focused minutes or up to two hours, and ride with a waves or forest soundscape.
One tap when it hits
Your why, front and center. Alert your circle, break the loop with a 90-second distraction, or leave the situation. Slipped? Log it without shame — it's data, not defeat. Always free.
60 seconds that tune everything
Cravings, mood, triggers — one quick check-in a day teaches ebbwave your risk windows, so insights and reminders show up when you actually need them.
Watch your brain bounce back
A model of your recovery from day 0 through the trough and out the other side — plus clean days, money saved, and where you are in the recovery lifecycle. Proof, not vibes.
What is nicotine costing you?
Drag the sliders. ebbwave tracks this number live from your quit day — and it only goes up.
At $10.00 per pack/pod, 7× a week — your live counter starts on quit day.
Momentum you can actually see
Clean days, milestones, and an anonymous circle cheering you through week two.
Milestones that mean something
One week. One month. Every marker ties back to what's recovering in your body — and to your own why.
A circle, not a feed
Fully anonymous — only your day count shows. A small, honest note from day 40 lands hard on day 4.
Everything that ships in your pocket
The full toolkit — from an app designed to make itself unnecessary.
- Home & lock-screen widgets — your clean counter and your why, always in sight.
- Siri Shortcuts & Action Button — Ride the Wave, Check In, Show My Why, Clean Days.
- Recorded waves & forest soundscapes for every session.
- Five calm themes — Moonlit stays free, for the late, quiet hours.
- Earn-only momentum points: +5 per check-in, +25 per wave ridden. A slip never subtracts.
- A quick educational self-check — not a diagnosis — with routes to real care and quitlines.
- An anonymous circle: initials and day counts, never names.
- Milestones from day one to five years, tied to real recovery phases.
- Reminders taper as you get stronger — ebbwave is built to fade out.
- One engine for any habit — add more with Plus (alcohol, phone, gaming & more).
The SOS button is free. Forever.
Wave sessions, SOS, and your clean-day counter never cost a cent. Plus adds the deep tools.
Questions, answered
Is ebbwave free?
The core is free forever: Ride the Wave sessions, the SOS button, your clean-day counter, and money saved. ebbwave Plus adds the four-pillar playbook deep-dive, full analytics, trigger maps, every recovery theme, and multiple habits at once.
Does it work for vaping as well as smoking?
Yes. ebbwave is built for nicotine in any form — cigarettes, vapes, pouches. You set your habit and cost during setup, and everything from savings to trigger insights adapts.
What happens when I get a craving?
Open the app and tap “Ride the wave.” A guided 3-minute session shows your craving as a curve — it peaks fast and almost always passes. Paced breathing and your personal if-then plan carry you to the other side.
What if I slip?
You log it — no shame, no broken-streak theatrics. ebbwave reframes slips as data: what triggered it, what to try next time. The recovery trend keeps going; one bad hour doesn’t erase twelve good days.
Is the community really anonymous?
Fully. Only your day count and habit show. No names, no photos, no followers — a circle, not a feed.
When is Android coming?
ebbwave is iOS-only today. Android is in development — coming soon.
