Expecting more from coach version

Just purchased the 3 month coach version and on my first week using the app. I got the app because of the accountability part of having it remind me when to fast and when to stop and tracking the progress, plus thought the coach version would enhance my experience with personalized tips to reach my goals faster. The major feedback which I have for the developer is the app is lacking flexibility with fasting periods. For example if I want to continue fasting longer on a certain day I can’t record that in the app. Or if I need to cut the fast sooner on another day (life events, how I feel etc) also cannot make the adjustment in the app. Very disappointed with this because I feel like the app doesn’t allow for realistic recording of fasting periods and sometimes it gets too stressful to stay right on track with the coach when personal life gets in the way.
This is my first impression as I am on my first week of fasting. The main feedback to the developer please allow the flexibility to be able to adjust and record our accurate fasting periods so we can be at ease and stress free.

Thank you for your detailed feedback, much appreciated! We have this on our agenda already and are currently working on more flexibility. So stay tuned for upcoming updates!

I’m losing weight ....

And feeling great. I paid for the coach version for three months to start and around week 3 I was a bit dubious about the algorithm because it suggested a very easy plan— but I overrode it and chose a plan that looked more interesting and the next week and ever since the “coach” was spot on. The better feedback I report the better the plans seem to be. Twice I ignored the coach’s plan and chose another one. I’ve lost 9 pounds so far and enjoy that each week is different. I grab my planner and work with my schedule and tweak times. It’s quite easy to do so. The reminder notifications are helpful and I like the challenges even if they’re easy. I think I must resemble their target user:) !

Beginner

Hello.
I’m a few days in and going well so far.
Question for Developers... when setting up my account and entering details, is it possible to have a section for stone & pounds for the weight, rather than it just bring in pounds? Just would be easier to enter exact weight rather than trying to work it out into pounds.
Other than that small niggle, I think it’s great so far as the reminder notifications to eat are most welcoming 👍🏻😂

Thank you for your feedback and ideas! We really appreciate feedback from our users and bring all those suggestions to our development meetings. I'm sure that we can integrate many of those into future versions of the app. We work hard to make BodyFast better and better every day.

Perfectly Simple!!

I love all the information and free programmes this app provides, and really like how it reminds you an hour before and at the time your fast begins and ends. It’s helping a bunch on my weight loss journey and is easy for anybody to use!

Not happy

It said it was a free app. Yes to download the app it’s free. Then to use the app there is a monthly charge. I did opt to use the 3 mo plan. That’s the only way you can find out anything on what this plan entails. I found it not to be user friendly and not something I want to try. Now I am paying for something I don’t want. I have tried to cancel as soon as I got to see what this plan was but now I am stuck paying for it. What a waste!
I just received a reply from the developer. What a scam. There was no real answer to my complaint. Steer clear from this APP. THEY are not willing to help you soon as you send them your money. I am hoping that I canceled this App when the 3 months are over. They don’t make that clear either. GOOD LUCK

Pretty great!

I downloaded this giving it a try like my friend did. I didn’t realise how much I snacked until I stopped myself eating through different periods. I paid for the coach because I just want something to work. I had a spinal fusion, due for leg surgery and on top I have inappropriate sinus tachycardia. Exercise can be extremely hard for me, but within 3-4 days I lost 2.5kg.

Hi Bree, we are happy to see that you like the BodyFast app so far and already managed to lose weight! Congrats! Enjoy and all the best!

Does what I need it to

Been looking for something that focused only on intermittent fasting and I’m glad I finally found this. The UX/UI feels fairly basic (atheistically it’s a bit disappointing - i.e arrangement of design patterns feels a little weird, along side long scrolling pages of content... feels a little off/old fashioned to me)

Aside from that, functionally it works well for all I need: track the days and hours of which I’m fasting + track weight.

I’d be curious to see improvements to goal tracking or other nice to haves you guys have sitting in your backlog.

The best fasting app EVER!

I love how this app has both a paid membership option and a free option. Unlike other apps, the free option for 'BodyFast' is still completely functioning and has everything you need in order to keep track of your fasting and feeding times. I couldn't recommend enough!

Subscribing to the Coach is not required to use the BodyFast app. The popup offer can easily be closed by pressing the x button in the top corner. The free version offers you a variety of very helpful features to support you on your fasting journey.
