# Nomu vs Fasting Tracker

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Fasting Tracker at none against Nomu's 6. Fasting Tracker also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 86%). Nomu's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (97 vs 15). On price, rating and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Nomu sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Fasting Tracker asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Nomu against 4.9 for Fasting Tracker. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nomu has 97 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 86% of Nomu's written reviews are positive against 100% of Fasting Tracker's.

Nomu ships an update every 5 days, Fasting Tracker every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
