# Fasting Timer vs Intermittent Fasting

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Intermittent Fasting at 50% against Fasting Timer's 0%. Intermittent Fasting also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months). Fasting Timer's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fasting Timer sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and Intermittent Fasting sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Intermittent Fasting holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Intermittent Fasting has 1K ratings behind it against 120, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 0% of Fasting Timer's written reviews are positive against 50% of Intermittent Fasting's.

Fasting Timer ships an update every 4 months, Intermittent Fasting every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
