Choose GLOW if…
You want a product built around women, vaping relevance, game-inspired progression, and no-shame recovery after a slip.
Choose QuitNow if…
You want an app available today with a large community, detailed traditional smoking statistics, an integrated course, and monthly expert sessions.
Bottom line: QuitNow offers the maturity and community scale of a long-running smoking-cessation product. GLOW is differentiated by audience specificity, vaping-first language, and its product philosophy, but cannot match current availability before launch.
