Summary

This study will test a new multilingual chatbot called LIFT-UP designed to help people living in poverty quit smoking. Researchers will interview 22 adults who smoke at least 3 cigarettes daily and are motivated to quit. The goal is to see if the chatbot is easy to use and helpful, not yet to measure quit rates.
