A three-step rhythm

Start. Pause. Look back.

  1. 01

    Start with what feels right

    Choose a fasting window that fits your day. Begin small, then adjust as your routine grows.

  2. 02

    Let the timer keep track

    Tap start, carry on with your day, and let Pause keep your progress close.

  3. 03

    See what you accomplished

    Finish when you’re ready, look back at the fast you completed, and build from there.

Thoughtful by default

Enough structure. Less pressure.

Every feature earns its place by making one thing clearer: what you did, and when.

Progress you can look back on

See every fast, your current streak, and the rhythm you’re building, all in one place.

Hydration, whenever you need it

It’s never too late to add another healthy habit. Set a goal, log each glass, and build your routine one step at a time.

Read the hydration guide

Log your weight

Check in from time to time, see how your weight changes over 30 days, and give yourself credit for how far you’ve come.

Understand weight trends

In sync with Apple Health

Bring your weight, water, and active energy together with the rest of your health data. You choose what Pause can connect.

Works offline

Keep your tracker on the go, even at the top of Mount Everest. Pause keeps working without a connection and syncs when you’re back online.

However you already train and eat

Built for your routine.

Intermittent fasting is about timing, not rules about food. Pause keeps your fasting window clear so it fits naturally into the routine you already have.

Alongside your workouts

Whether you train fasted or fed, Pause keeps your fasting window visible so both habits can fit the same routine.

Diet phases

Pause never tells you what to eat. It simply keeps your eating window visible, so keto, calorie counting, or your own approach stays easier to manage.

Everyday hydration

Set a daily water goal and log it in a tap. Hydration is part of a healthier rhythm, one small choice at a time.

One place for all of it

Your progress, in sync with Apple Health.

Water, weight, and active energy can sit beside your steps, workouts, and sleep in Apple Health, without entering the same data twice.

What Apple Health shares stays on your iPhone. You decide what Pause can see, one thing at a time, and you can change your mind in Settings whenever you want. Nothing is sold, and nothing goes to advertisers.

FAQ

We’ve got answers.

Most intermittent fasting apps want to be everything: meal logs, macros, a dashboard full of numbers you never asked for. Pause is just a fasting timer. Start it, end it, get on with your day. We'd rather do one thing perfectly than ten things adequately.

Pause supports 13:11, 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, and 36 hour fasts. Pick the window that fits the day you actually have, and change it whenever your routine changes.

Yes. 16:8 is the schedule most people start with, and Pause treats it as a first-class option: choose it once, tap start when your eating window closes, and the widget or Live Activity shows the time left without opening the app.

Yes. The water tracker sits next to the fasting timer, so you can log a glass in a tap, set your own daily goal, and edit or remove entries later. It can also write to Apple Health as dietary water if you allow it.

Pause is a general wellness app, not a weight-loss program, and it makes no promises about results. What it does is keep the record clear: your fasting history, your water, and a thirty-day weight trend, so you can see the direction rather than react to one morning. Read the Health Disclaimer, and talk to a healthcare professional before changing how you eat.

Yes, and only if you want it to. Body mass, dietary water, and active energy are each permitted separately, and every request is made in context. Weigh in elsewhere and Pause picks the number up, so you never type it twice.

Yes. We don't sell it, and we don't track you. Your fasting history stays yours, and the Privacy Policy spells out exactly what that means.

Pause is free to download from the App Store. Full access runs on an auto-renewing subscription, billed monthly or yearly at App Store localized prices, and you can manage or cancel it anytime in your App Store settings.

If you want an easier way to skip the late-night snacking, ease off eating first thing in the morning, or just give your body a real break between meals, Pause keeps your progress visible without getting in your way. The Home Screen widget and Live Activity show your progress at a glance, so staying consistent doesn't take any extra effort.

Ready when you are
