According to John Collet who is one of the developer of this device, the app uses many parameters to calculate your life expectancy like your age, the amount and frequency of your smoking. The app design has been based upon the data obtained from the American Cancer society. Whenever you take a puff, the Bluetooth chip inside the e-cigarette collects the data about intensity as well as the duration of the puff. This data is then transmitted to smartphone, where an app calculates your life expectancy and displays it to you. Recently, in a research article in the Journal addiction, it has been revealed that e-cigarettes have resulted in 20% of smokers quitting smoking.
