Rosie Long Decter of Billboard Canada described "Quitter" as "anthemic folk track in the mould of Noah Kahan", noting a "a kick-clap beat" and Whitcomb's "growling vocal".[4] Alli Patton of Holler favourably spoke of the song, noting "sharp strums and a shuddering kick drum", as well as "a torrent of rhythm and steel.
