Fasting Well vs Vasten

Fasting Well is a beautiful, science-grounded intermittent fasting tracker. Designed for the moments your fast actually happens — at home, in transit, before bed — with the kind of polish you'd expect from an app you open every day. EVERY FAST IS A JOURNEY A fast isn't a single state — it's a sequence. Anabolic. Catabolic. Fat-burning. Ketosis. Deep ketosis. Fasting Well shows you exactly where you are in that journey, with stage-aware visuals and a quiet narration of what's happening inside. WHAT YOU GET (FREE) • Live timer with the ring you'll want to watch • Six built-in plans: 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD, 24h, 36h • Stage-aware progress: see Anabolic → Ketosis unfold • Notifications when you cross a stage or hit your goal • Journal of your last 30 days with a weekly chart • Five long-form science articles, beautifully illustrated • Calendar heatmap of recent activity • Dark and light themes that look right on every screen WHY ANOTHER FASTING APP Because the popular ones either gutted their free tier or never felt like apps you'd open without a reason. Fasting Well is built to be the home screen icon you actually like seeing. PRIVACY-FIRST Your fasts and weight data stay on your device — no account, no cloud sync, no servers we own. To make the app better we collect anonymous usage signals (e.g. "a fast was started on the 18:6 plan" or "an article was opened") through PostHog. These contain no personally identifying information and can be turned off entirely in Settings → Privacy. SCIENCE-BACKED, NOT WELLNESS-HYPE Built on peer-reviewed fasting research. No talk of "detox." No supplements to sell. Just the metabolic story your body is actually telling. FASTING WELL PRO Go deeper with Pro: build custom fasting protocols, log your weight and watch the trend, unlock advanced statistics (12-week heatmap, completion rate, best streak), share beautiful fast cards, and pick from every accent color.

Vasten does one job well: it keeps an accurate record of your fast. Start in one tap, see elapsed time and your goal on the main screen, and keep the timer visible through a Home Screen widget, Lock Screen Live Activity, and Dynamic Island. Reaching the goal never ends the fast automatically—you decide when it ends. Your history remains useful and under your control. Correct start and end times, review simple totals, import Vasten JSON or Zero history, export everything as JSON or CSV, or delete any record. Features: • One-tap start with an adjustable start time • Custom fasting goals from 1 to 168 hours • Clear widget goal progress and goal end times • Lock Screen and Dynamic Island Live Activity • Small and medium Home Screen widgets • Separate timer and 12-week fasting-activity widgets • Custom accent colors shared across the app and widgets • Editable history and summary statistics • Configurable local goal-time notification • Vasten JSON and Zero fasting-history import • Private device storage with private iCloud synchronization • JSON and CSV export • English and Dutch • No account, ads, analytics, or subscription Stage labels are general educational time ranges. They are not measurements of your body or medical advice.
