Fasting Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Fasting Timer - SLOX is a lightweight intermittent-fasting countdown timer designed to keep tracking simple. Features: • Preset protocols: 16:8, 18:6, 20:4 — plus a fully custom protocol • Live countdown showing time elapsed and time remaining • Past-fast history with completion status • Quick-start and one-tap stop • Sound & haptic toggles • 7 languages supported (English / 한국어 / 日本語 / 简体中文 / 繁體中文 / Español / Português) NOT a medical device. The timer simply counts down the duration you choose. It does not measure metabolic state, glucose, or any biomarker, and it does not diagnose any condition. Intermittent fasting may not be safe for everyone (pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, people with diabetes, eating disorders, or other medical conditions). Consult a healthcare professional before starting any fasting routine.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fasting Timer at none against Daily Fast's 3. Fasting Timer also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 months) and device support (3 vs 1). Daily Fast's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.
