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.
Grounded in urge surfing, CBT, and ACT
Built for the moment the urge hits

Does it work for vaping as well as smoking?

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.
