Great App, Just What I Needed. One Tweak Though...
Highly rated. This is a great app for people who want to just forget about clock-watching and get on with their day. For someone who is juggling so many things on a daily basis I love just being told what to do and when as it is delegation of a responsibility and self-discipline that invariably goes out the window if I’m a little stressed. So far it is working great, so thanks!
ONE CHANGE NEEDED PLEASE: if you move an eating period forward on any given day, the fasting duration is adjusted but BACKWARDS, NOT FORWARDS. For example: If Mon 10:00 - 17:00 is the eating window, if I decide to bring 17:00 forward to 15:00, instead of it changing my Fasting START time on Tuesday, it moves the start time back on Monday to earlier. I understand that you are meant to adjust all the times BEFORE you start the week but I’m afraid life simply isn’t like that. Mid-week, I might want a slight adjustment and rather than binning the whole week, I’d like to adjust the next eating/fasting period even if it the finish/start spans two days.
Is this something your developers can adjust?

Do not buy subscription
Within a few minutes of using the “coaching” subscription version I realized it is a computer generating “coach” with little feedback opportunities. The fasting schedule is way too erratic to be healthy and beneficial. I tried to cancel within five minutes but was rejected. I would steer clear of this one.
The response to my above post is incorrect and untrue since I asked for a refund within minutes and it was denied.
Update: I tried emailing your support group as suggested below and got the same response as before...that I had to contact Apple. I did and was rejected again. So what is basis for your representation that you will refund within 14 days? So far, this is not true for me.

A great virtual assistant
BodyFast is great, easy to use, and gives me that added support to delay, not deny!

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate that BodyFast is helping you on your fasting journey 👍 Enjoy your BodyFasting!
Be Accountable
Doing something new is much easier when you set a realistic series of goals and persistent, positive reminders - which can get dull. And dull can likely lead to giving up - but less likely when progress is rewarded with another challenge to keep you engaged in solidifying new behavior. Before long you’ve reached your goal which not only reason to celebrate but - in the best possible way - beside the point. Because you haven’t merely achieved something obvious to others on the outside, you’ve gone and changed yourself on the inside. Keep going and you may just experience that grown-up brand of happiness known as inner peace.

Not enough
I have being using BodyFast for a few days only. App is neatly done. However, being user of many other food tracking weight losing apps, so far BodyFast is more a time keeper rather than a true losing aid. No way to connect to your fitness apps, no tracking whatsoever. Even though fasting is not about tracking or counting calories, some sort of analysis would be of great help. If we already paid for an app believe me that we would’t mind to keep track of things to get more insight of our progress. If this is all I am gonna get probably I won’t be extending my usage period.

Enjoying the app however…
I’m enjoying the app and have lost a few pounds so far however I downloaded it on my iPad and would like to use it on my iPhone as well. I do not have Facebook and therefore am not able to sign into my account on my phone so I am not able to use my account on both devices. I wish I could sign into my account using my email address. I think with more and more people leaving Facebook because of privacy issues, I’m pretty certain people don’t want their diet history up for grabs.
I don’t like that there is no one responsible know all live coach for when you mess up… There is no one there to reach out to if you need help… It’s a problem for me because today in my second week I effed up so I needed someone to reach out to but of course I couldn’t because this app doesn’t allow it blah blah blah no one cares it’s an OK app

Thank you for your rating! A sync is also possible without Facebook account. But I think we already answered your request by mail. If not please turn to support@bodyfast.de and we will gladly help you further.
Finally Losing Weight
I am only on my 4th day using this app and I have already lost 3lbs. There are different fasting options, but you are limited if you are using the free version. I fast from 8pm to 12pm and the app alerts me an hour before I break or start a fast. It also allows you to track your weight. In addition to this app I do Pilates 5 days a week and although I am not on a strict diet; I do eat healthy and limit my carbs and sweets. A large cup of joe (black) keeps me sane during my fast. I recommend intermittent fasting to anyone who has been struggling with their weight. It works!

Simple, easy, no ads
I really love this app. I downloaded it 3 weeks ago and I’ve been using it non stop since. There are no advertisements in the app and it simply sends you a notification when you can or can’t eat. Already lost 2.5 kilos and I’m feeling a lot better about myself.
Accountability
Keeps me honest and accountable
Tell me how many hours
Please tell me how many hours I have fasted at a quick glance. I am new to fasting and trying to work up to 16/8 schedule. I started with a 14/10 and it has varied, when I can do more or I’ve adjusted for family gatherings etc. I love that the app allows me to do this but I’m doing math all the time to figure Pitt fasting hours day to day and having to keep track of them outside the app. Just calculate my
Daily hours please! Also time adjustment should be able to be made without effecting the end or start time. Everything else is great!
