About

Hushfast

Features
Read full description

Hushfast is a calm, focused timer for intermittent fasting. Start a fast when your last meal ends, watch the ring fill toward your goal, and eat when the window opens. No account, no ads, no clutter. WHAT YOU GET • Plans that fit your life: 12:12, 14:10, 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD, or set your own hours. • A timer that tells you more than the time: see which stage your body is in, from digesting to fat burning to ketosis, and how long until the next one. • Your goal time and eating window, always in view. • One reminder, not ten: a single notification when your fast is complete. Optional: a heads-up before your eating window closes, and (Pro) at each body stage. • Adjust the start time if you forgot to tap. No guilt, no gaps. • History that matters: day streak, average fast, goals reached, and a seven-day view. • Weight trend: connect Apple Health and see your weight next to your fasts. Read only, and it stays on your phone. • Light and dark mode, designed for iPhone. WHY HUSHFAST Most fasting apps bury the timer under meal plans, coaching and upsells. Hushfast does one thing well. Everything stays on your phone, and you can delete it all at any time. PRO Hushfast is free to use: the timer, every preset plan, your history, streak and reminder are all included. Hushfast Pro is a one-time purchase of $4.99 that unlocks custom fasting hours, full statistics with a seven-day chart, the Apple Health weight trend, stage reminders and the Lock Screen Live Activity. No subscription, no renewals. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Privacy Policy: https://sleepsheeps.github.io/hushfast-site/privacy.html Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Hushfast is a timer and a log, not medical advice. Talk to a doctor before fasting if you are pregnant, under 18, underweight, diabetic, or taking medication.
