Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
The Fasting screen with a session in progress on a large timer, buttons to discard or finish it, totals of fifteen sessions and 234 hours with the longest at eighteen, and a bar chart of recent days.
Discard is there for the times you started it by accident.

How it works

  1. Start it and walk away

    The timer keeps running with the app shut. On the iPhone it sits on the Lock Screen, so you check it without unlocking anything.

  2. Sessions keep their name

    A finished window records as what it was: sixteen eight, started at eight in the evening, sixteen hours exactly.

  3. Totals worth having

    Fifteen sessions, two hundred and thirty four hours, longest eighteen. The chart underneath shows which days had one and which did not.

Asked about Fasting

What is the Fasting module in Cadence?

A timer for the gap between meals, and what those gaps have added up to. The timer keeps running with the app shut. On the iPhone it sits on the Lock Screen, so you check it without unlocking anything.

Can I switch Fasting off?

Yes. The library in Settings has a switch beside Fasting, and turning it off takes it out of the sidebar, the search and the Today screen. The other 26 switchable modules work the same way.

Does Fasting sync between the Mac and the iPhone?

Yes, once iCloud sync is unlocked for $14.99, paid once and covering the Mac and the iPhone together. Until then Fasting keeps its data on the device you typed it into, and it goes nowhere else.

Keep Fasting. Ignore the other twenty five.
