FastWindow
Read full descriptionHide full description
FastWindow does one thing. It shows you how long you've been fasting and when you can eat. Every major fasting app has become a wellness platform — coaching subscriptions, quizzes, recipe feeds, and paywall friction. FastWindow strips all of that away. ONE-TAP FASTING TIMER Open the app. Tap start. Done. No quiz about your goals. No onboarding survey. No account creation. Just a clean fasting timer that works. You see two things: • How long you've been fasting (elapsed time) • When you can eat (remaining time) That's it. That's the app. FASTING PRESETS BUILT IN Choose your fasting window in one tap: • 16:8 (16 hours fasting, 8 hours eating) • 18:6 (18 hours fasting, 6 hours eating) • 20:4 (20 hours fasting, 4 hours eating) • OMAD (One Meal A Day) • Custom durations (Pro feature) No coaching. No meal plans. No calorie tracking. Just fasting. FEATURES THAT MATTER • One-tap fasting timer • Live elapsed and remaining time • Fasting presets (16:8, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD) • 7-day fast history at a glance • Calendar heatmap to see patterns • Backdate your start time if you forget to start the timer • Local notifications when your fast ends • No account required. Ever. • No subscription. Ever. FASTWINDOW PRO — One Time Purchase Upgrade once to unlock: • Unlimited fast history (beyond 7 days) • Custom fasting durations (set any hours:minutes) • Weight log with trend visualization • Apple Health export (weight, fasting data) • Advanced stats (average fast length, streak tracking) Pay once. £4.99. Yours forever. No renewal, no monthly fee, no subscription. WHY FASTWINDOW EXISTS The fasting app category has a problem. Every major app pushes you toward: • Subscription upsells (coaching, premium insights, meal plans) • Onboarding quizzes (goals, weight, activity level, dietary preferences) • Wellness bloat (recipes, articles, community challenges, step tracking) FastWindow rejects all of that. If you need a fasting coach, use Zero. If you want recipes and meal plans, use Fastic. If you want community challenges, use BodyFast. But if you just want to know how long you've been fasting — and that's it — FastWindow is for you. PERFECT FOR • People practicing intermittent fasting (16:8, 18:6, OMAD, etc.) • Users frustrated by fasting app subscriptions • Anyone who wants a timer, not a wellness platform • People who value simplicity over features • Users tired of onboarding quizzes and paywalls WHO FASTWINDOW IS NOT FOR FastWindow does not provide: • Coaching or fasting advice • Meal plans or recipes • Calorie tracking or macros • Community features or challenges • Water intake or step tracking • Body measurements beyond weight If you need those features, consider Zero, Fastic, or BodyFast. FastWindow is intentionally minimal. PRIVACY & SIMPLICITY • No account creation required • No email, no password, no profile • All data stored locally on your device • No cloud sync (intentional — keeps it simple) • No third-party analytics or tracking • Offline-first design NO SUBSCRIPTION MEANS NO SUBSCRIPTION Other fasting apps say "free" but push monthly subscriptions for basic features like custom fasting durations or history beyond 7 days. FastWindow is different: one optional upgrade, one price, lifetime access. No coaching upsells, no premium tiers, no renewal fatigue. Free version: 7-day history, preset durations (16:8, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD), basic timer Pro version: £2.99 once, everything unlocked, forever MEDICAL DISCLAIMER FastWindow is not medical advice. Consult a healthcare professional before beginning any fasting program, especially if you have a medical condition or take medications. SUPPORT & CONTACT Questions? Feedback?

FastTrack is intermittent fasting the honest way. No subscription required, no onboarding quiz, and no AI coach reading your data. Just a beautiful one-tap timer, with a built-in water tracker, that respects your time and your privacy. WHY FASTTRACK Most fasting apps hide the basics behind a $70-per-year subscription and a long quiz before you can even start a timer. FastTrack flips that. Buy it once and own it for life, or pick a low weekly or annual plan if you prefer. Everything runs on your device. There is no account and nothing to sign up for. FAST YOUR WAY - One-tap timer with a live progress ring - Every protocol: 16:8, 18:6, 20:4 and OMAD - Gentle, circadian-friendly presets (12:12 and 14:10) for easing in or fasting alongside GLP-1 medication - Custom windows up to 24 hours - Forgot to tap? Edit your start and end times anytime SEE WHAT FASTING DOES - A plain-language fasting-zone timeline: fed, fat burning, ketosis and beyond - Clear, everyday explanations, never medical jargon A MODERN iOS APP - Live Activity and Dynamic Island countdown - Lock screen and home screen widgets - Streaks, history calendar and stats (average fast, longest fast, weekly consistency) - Apple Health weight sync with a weight-and-fasting trend STAY HYDRATED WHILE YOU FAST - One-tap water logging: 250, 500 or 750 ml (or fl oz), plus custom amounts and undo - A daily water goal you set, with a progress ring and how much is left - A hydration streak for every day you hit your goal - 7-day hydration history at a glance - Optionally save each drink to Apple Health as dietary water PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your fasting data never leaves your device. No account, no tracking, no ads. FASTING SAFELY FastTrack is an educational timer, not medical advice, and it never rewards extreme fasts. Fasting is not right for everyone. If you are pregnant, under 18, take medication, or have a history of disordered eating or a health condition, please talk to a clinician first. This app offers a weekly subscription with a 3-day free trial, and an annual subscription, plus a one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID Account Settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: FastWindow at 15.1 against Fasting Tracker's 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
