Daily Fast ١٢+

I’ve made fasting a lifestyle in 2023; and for many who do this, they’ve done the research, read books and listen to the podcasts… this app is for you guys… you don’t need coaching or anything like that, you just want data tracking and simple reminders to keep you on track during a busy day! Most fasting apps are way to much… this one is not! It’s basic, data tracking and reminders… i use it because I work a robust schedule and I want to eat properly, the right amount of nutrients and so forth without; it’s easy to get buried in a project and miss your eating window… i hate stacking calories because i forgot to eat before 6; routine is what makes a fasting lifestyle work, it has to become a habit; but within that mindset, you need simple tools to help the process… this is that tool! this app has basic reminders like eating windows and so forth - The primary reason I chose this app; working in the field on a project, a reminder helps me create perspective about time frame so I eat routinely, again, this is how habits are formed. This app is great and is as advertised so far. Great work!

Really like the simplicity, health apps can be overwhelming with all the options but it’s immediately obvious how to use this app and though the design is strong it doesn’t try to be overly clever like a lot of apps tend to be.

My only suggestion is to add basic Apple Watch support, a countdown complication would be great. If that feature existed this would be stellar.

I wanted a fasting app that I didn’t have to press “start fast” and “stop fast” on. This was that app. However, on one occasion I began my fast later than usual. I attempted to adjust my start time the next morning. I found that I could not alter the prior days time. I could only edit “today’s time”. So, on a 16:8 fast if I entered a 2-hour later eating window for “today” because I began my fast 2 hours later the prior evening, this app would calculate that I had fasted for 18 hours because I could not adjust the start time from the prior evening.
After this happened I tried to completely end fasting on this app. I couldn’t. Selecting “I don’t want to fast today.” set a timer for a 29 hour eating window which means it was going to begin my next fast rather than completely stop it. There was no way for me to completely end fasting on this app. The only other option this app gives is to select a different fasting plan. You can turn off notifications but that’s not enough. It’s still running, logging fasting days based on the plan you selected. Once you start using this app, there is no “off” button. After realizing this app is like a runaway train, I decided to delete it.
