Brief Summary
The purpose of this research is to test a text message intervention for people who are beginning an attempt to quit smoking. The intervention seeks to teach people to think about their cravings to smoke in more helpful ways. The investigators expect that participants receiving the text message craving program will be less likely to begin smoking again compared to participants in a control condition.
