This phase I trial investigates a new smartphone application (called Actify) for improving population-level smoking cessation and mood management. Actify delivers behavioral activation therapy for depression as part of a smoking cessation intervention and will be compared to another smoking cessation smartphone application that is based on current clinical practice guidelines. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of two smartphone applications and accompanying text notifications to help with quitting smoking and improved mood.

OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I: Participants use Actify app for smoking cessation for 8 weeks. Participants also receive motivational messages and smoking cessation information via text notifications.
ARM II: Participants use United States (US) Clinical Practice Guidelines (USCPG) app for smoking cessation for 8 weeks. Participants also receive motivational messages and smoking cessation information via text notifications.
After completion of study, participants are followed up at 6 months.
Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

The Patient Health Questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8) is an assessment of depressive symptoms used to detect symptom changes over time as a result of treatment. The PHQ-8 asks the number of days in the past 2 weeks the respondent had experienced a particular depressive symptom. Possible answers are "not at all" or "several days" or "more than half the days" or "nearly every day," with points (0 to 3) assigned to each category. The scores for each item are summed to produce a total score between 0 and 24 points. A total score of 0 to 4 represents no significant depressive symptoms. A total score of 5 to 9 represents mild depressive symptoms; 10 to 14, moderate; 15 to 19, moderately severe; and 20 to 24, severe.

The Behavioral Activation for Depression Scale (BADS) is a 25-item scale used to track changes in behaviors hypothesized to underlie depression and specifically targeted for change by behavioral activation. BADS items are rated on a 7-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 6 (completely). The behavioral activation subscale contains 7 items, with a scoring range of 0 to 42. Change scores reflect the value of the BADS behavioral activation subscale score at 8-week follow-up minus the baseline score. Positive change values indicate an increase in behavioral activation (i.e, an improvement), whereas negative scores indicate a decrease in behavioral activation.
