Grido
Read full descriptionHide full description
Take a breath. Grido takes it with you. Her voice keeps you company. Her movement sets the pace. Follow along for as long as you need breathing support, and earn XP with every session. No counting. No countdown. Just you, Grido and a little breathing room. BREATHE OUT THE DAY Follow Grido into a longer, slower exhale. Let her voice, breathing ring and the rise and fall of her arm guide you. Thereβs no set finish. Keep breathing with her until you feel ready to stop. FOLLOW HER LEAD You donβt have to count or keep track. Watch Grido, listen to her voice, and settle into the rhythm. She keeps going for as long as you need. MAKE A MOMENT FOR YOURSELF Before a meeting. After training. When the day wonβt leave your head. Open Grido and take a little time to breathe. LEVEL UP BY SHOWING UP Every session earns XP. Every level comes from practising. See your progress grow, one breath at a time. A LITTLE SOMETHING TO FIND Some sessions come with a collectable: a new colour, a new mood, perhaps something rare. Small discoveries that make your time together feel a little more yours. MAKE HER LOOK YOURS Build Gridoβs wardrobe with pieces you find through practice and looks you choose from the shop. Skins and collectables are available as individual in-app purchases. Pick your favourite. Buy exactly what you see. BREATHING IS JUST THE START Yoga and movement routines are next. Same companion, same simple approach: Grido shows, you follow. Grido is a wellbeing companion. It does not provide medical advice. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Follow your current fast and organize a week that fits your routine. Start or end your timer, adjust times and review your history. Rest days belong in your schedule: the plan should fit your life, not the other way around. The core timer is free. Custom Week is available as a one-time purchase, without a subscription. People who used FastZen before version 1.1.0 keep that access without paying. This is a tracking tool, not medical advice or a weight-loss promise.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Grido at none against FastZen's 3. Grido also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
