This study is the first to evaluate the content and quality of smoking cessation apps by classification. The combined type had higher-quality content and functionality than other app types. The app developer type and feedback channel with the app developer had a significant impact on the overall quality of the apps. In addition, problematic apps and single-function apps were shown to have a large market share. Our results will contribute to the use and development of better smoking cessation apps after considering the problems identified in this study.
