Fasting is a beautifully simple intermittent-fasting timer that does one thing well: it tracks your fast. No goals to hit. No streaks to protect. No accounts, no ads, no clutter. Just tap once to begin, and a calm live timer counts your fast while a glowing ring fills toward the next stage your body moves through. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most fasting apps pile on dashboards, reminders, and pressure. This one strips fasting back to its essence — a clear timer you can glance at and put away. It's designed to feel quiet and focused, not gamified. WHAT YOU GET • One-tap start and stop, with a big, satisfying button • A live timer that keeps perfect time across restarts, time-zone changes, and daylight saving • Metabolic milestones — the ring fills toward the next stage (blood sugar settling, glycogen burning, fat burning, ketosis, autophagy, and more) • Tap any milestone for an honest, plain-language explanation of what's happening in your body • Forgot to start the timer? Just tap the ring to fix your start time. Forgot to stop? End your fast at the right time after the fact. • An ongoing notification shows your current duration at a glance • A simple history of past fasts — swipe to delete • 18 languages and a clean dark design HONEST BY DESIGN The milestone descriptions are written plainly and honestly. Where the science is still early or based mostly on animal research, we say so. This app is a timer and an educational companion — not medical advice. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your data stays on your device. There are no accounts, no sign-ups, no tracking, and nothing is uploaded. Fasting works for 16:8, OMAD, alternate-day, extended fasts, or any schedule you like — because it never forces a schedule on you. Note: Fasting is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. Talk to a healthcare professional before starting any fasting regimen, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition.

Fasty is the simplest way to track intermittent fasting — 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD, or custom. One tap to start. Live Activities keep your progress on the Lock Screen without opening the app. Pick a plan, tap Start, and let Fasty take care of the rest. Your fasting timer lives where you actually look: the Home Screen widget, the Lock Screen Live Activity, and the Dynamic Island, so you always know how long you have left without opening the app. WHY FASTY - Quiet by design. No streak shaming, no animated pressure, no push spam. - Local-first. Your data stays on your device. No account. No backend. No tracking. - Just enough features. A timer, proven plans, history, widgets, and Live Activities. PLANS INCLUDED - 16:8: the most popular daily window. - 18:6: a tighter eating window for experienced fasters. - 20:4: the Warrior style, one main meal. - 24h: a full-day fast for an occasional reset. WIDGETS & LIVE ACTIVITY Add the Fasty widget to your Home Screen or Lock Screen and your remaining time updates automatically. When you start a fast, a Live Activity appears in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen so progress is one glance away. NOTIFICATIONS Fasty sends a single local notification when your fasting window completes. No marketing pushes, no streak nags. You can turn notifications off any time in iOS Settings. PRIVACY Fasty does not collect data. There is no sign-in. Your fasting history lives only on your device and is shared with the widget through Apple App Groups, never sent to a server. MEDICAL DISCLAIMER Fasty is a habit-tracking timer, not medical software. Fasting is not appropriate for everyone. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, have a history of eating disorders, diabetes, any chronic condition, or are taking long-term medication, consult a qualified healthcare provider before starting any fasting regimen.
