## What is Atrest?

Atrest is a fasting tracker built around one idea: your fast deserves patience, not pressure.

No streaks. No leaderboards. No notifications designed to make you feel behind. Just a quiet timer, biological milestones delivered without alarm, and a lovelyforest that grows one tree for every fast you complete and evolves into a complete forest with stream, path and deer as you fast more days.

YOUR FOREST
Every completed fast becomes a tree. Your forest is your record — not a streak counter, not a score, but a living ledger of your discipline. Scroll through it. Let it accumulate quietly.

BIOLOGICAL COMPANION
As you fast, Atrest tracks where your body is: digestion completing, metabolic transition, deeper rhythm. Each phase is named, not graded. It tells you what's happening — not how well you're doing.

NO DARK PATTERNS. EVER.
No urgency timers. No guilt messages. No badges. No social comparison. Atrest was built with a specific ethical commitment: your health is not a product to optimize.

VIGIL — OPTIONAL DEPTH
For users who fast with faith, Vigil is a silent opt-in layer. Activate it in Settings to add Scripture fragments at each milestone — paraphrased quietly, never preachy. A Christian fasting during Lent will recognize it. Anyone else won't notice. Nothing in the core app changes.

PREMIUM
The forest, the full calendar history, and Vigil are available with a premium plan. Free users get the timer, the milestone companion, and their 7 most recent calendar entries — no time limit, no feature hostage.

Atrest was made slowly, for people who want to fast slowly.

Thank you for resting with Atrest.

### 1.2 — 2026-07-20

Reflection: a quiet space to leave a note after a fast — written or spoken, kept only for you.

Rhythm: set the days and window for your regular fasts, and Atrest will gently offer to continue them for you — with a soft cue at the start, and another when the window closes.

You can now correct a fast's start or end time if you forgot to open the app in the moment.

A number of small refinements underneath, in keeping with how the app should feel: calm, steady, unhurried.

### 1.1 — 2026-06-05

The forest landscape has been refreshed and new elements have been added - rocks and stream, path, deer and a night state.
