One in 10 smokers are "desperate" to give up, a poll suggests.
A survey, conducted on behalf of the British Heart Foundation's 30th annual No Smoking Day, found that 11% of smokers are desperate to kick the habit.
And 82% of 2,000 UK smokers surveyed had tried and failed to quit.
The charity is encouraging smokers to "swap fags for swag" by thinking about how much money they could save if they quit.
Someone who smokes 20 cigarettes a day could save £2,555 a year if they kicked the habit, a spokeswoman said.
The charity is using a new smartphone app, Blippar, which virtually transforms a cigarette pack into a puff of smoke.
