About

Autophagy

Features
Read full description

Autophagy tracks the five practices most strongly linked to cellular renewal: fasting, exercise, cold immersion, sauna, and Reset Breathing. One daily score, one streak, one clean view of how often you actually do the things that matter. Free to use. No account, no sign-in. WHAT IT TRACKS - Fasting, in hours, with sensible scoring that caps so it never rewards extreme fasting - Exercise, calibrated per type, and optionally imported from Apple Health - Cold immersion, as a live timer - Sauna, as a live timer - Reset Breathing ONE DAILY SCORE Each practice earns up to 20 points a day. The default daily target is 42, and you can change it. The scoring rewards spreading your practice, not maxing out one thing. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Add the Autophagy widget to your Home Screen or Lock Screen and today's ring, score and streak are one glance away, no need to open the app. APPLE HEALTH Connect Apple Health and your runs, walks and workouts import as exercise automatically, so your score reflects the training you already do. PREMIUM A subscription unlocks the deeper layer: - How your HRV lines up with your cold, sauna and fasting days - Your recovery markers, HRV, resting heart rate and VO2 max, alongside your practice - A plain-language weekly summary - The full practitioner library Premium is a subscription. Annual comes with a 7-day free trial; monthly bills straight away. A NOTE ON HONESTY This is a wellness tracker, not medical advice, and it does not measure autophagy. It tracks practices associated with cellular renewal. Talk to your doctor before starting any new fasting, training, or cold-exposure practice. PRIVACY Your logged sessions and any Apple Health data the app reads stay on your device. The app uses TelemetryDeck for anonymous, aggregate usage analytics, and Google Analytics for Firebase to measure app installs and advertising performance. Neither carries your name or account. Built by a practitioner who actually does the work. Made in England by Alamex Ltd. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Autophagy Premium is offered as a monthly or annual auto-renewable subscription. The annual plan includes a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel in your Apple ID settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription.

About

Fasting Timer & Hydration Log

Features
Read full description

An intermittent fasting timer that tells you exactly where you are: hours elapsed, hours left, and which metabolic stage your body just entered. Most fasting apps stop at a countdown. This one draws the whole fast on a stage timeline โ€” fed state at 0h, glycogen use at 4h, fat burning at 8h, ketosis at 12h, autophagy at 16h, deep ketosis at 24h โ€” so the number on screen finally means something. Underneath it sits a hydration log, because water is what makes the last four hours bearable, and a Learn library that answers the questions every beginner hits in week one. WHAT YOU GET - Know your fasting window at a glance: a live ring timer with hours elapsed, time remaining and the exact clock time your eating window opens - Follow your body, not just the clock โ€” a metabolic stage timeline that fills in as you pass 4h, 8h, 12h, 16h and 24h - Start in two taps with 16:8, 18:6, 20:4 or OMAD 23:1, and get a completion notification the moment you hit your goal - Hit your water target every day โ€” a 250 / 500 / 750 ml quick-add, a custom amount, an adjustable daily goal and a progress ring for today - See whether it is working: total fasts, average length, longest fast, a consecutive-day streak and a bar chart of your last ten fasts - Close each fast honestly โ€” rate how it felt and your energy level from 1 to 5, then browse the full history of every fast you finished PERFECT FOR - Beginners starting 16:8 who want to know what is happening inside the fast, not just when it ends - OMAD and 20:4 fasters chasing longer ketosis and autophagy windows - Anyone who keeps forgetting to drink water once meals disappear from the day - People who quit fasting before because the hours felt pointless and invisible WHY NOT JUST USE A KITCHEN TIMER? A timer tells you 6:42 is left. It cannot tell you that you crossed into fat burning two hours ago, when your eating window opens tomorrow, how long your streak is, or whether last week's fasts were actually longer than this week's. That context is the difference between counting down and building a habit. PRIVACY Everything stays on your iPhone. No account, no sign-up, no servers โ€” your fasts, water logs and notes are stored on the device and are never uploaded. FULL ACCESS This is a paid app: one plan unlocks everything โ€” all four fasting protocols, the live timer and stage timeline, unlimited history, insights and charts, the hydration log and the full Learn library. Choose weekly, yearly, or a one-time lifetime purchase. No ads at any tier. This app is a fasting timer and hydration log for general wellness, not medical advice. Talk to a doctor before fasting, especially if you are pregnant, diabetic or managing a health condition. Pick 16:8, tap Start, and watch your first stage light up tonight.
