- [R1] BodyFast Useless and tricky . Good as an idea but not for me 🤷🏼♀️: You can’t delete this app or your account. When you try it it says something about internet connection . Let’s see if they stop charging too.
- [R4] BodyFast Fraudulent: Unauthorized charges no response to emails sent. These reviews in Trust pilot are 2.3 Goes without saying that you are consistently overcharging with no response to any of your clients emails. I paid 7.99 and now you have charged me 33.98. Also spelling mistakes on your app
- [R7] BodyFast Charges without Approval: 6-2026 Update: Still dealing with charges from this company!! I had to go thru my bank to get credited from charges since April 2025!! All they give you is same email response repeatedly to cancel. I have no acct number, no company phone number, email doesn’t work; they have it set up to be impossible to cancel. Original review: For months my Their charges keep happening.
- [R16] BodyFast Creepy scammy absolutely not: I paid for a 7 day trial and found the app useless. Here I am on day 6 of 7 and they attempted to charge me $32 to continue the trial without any prior notification. My bank luckily declined the transaction and paused my card because it was super suspicious. Absolute scam and thieves. Cancelled the subscription and you’re still trying to steal my money! I will be push
- [R3] BodyFast Better Fasting Trackers: I have tried a few and Zero is the best one I have used. While this app has some cool features the fasting element takes too much to navigate. Zero has simple features like widgets with a visually engaging countdown.
- [R9] BodyFast Where’s the coaching?: I don’t like that I had to choose to upgrade before I even tested the free version. I wanted to get serious about weight loss so I opted to go for it, as it said there was coaching. Ok, but where? The only “coaching” I see is a bunch of blog posts. Nice app with lots of info but not worth paying for IMO. Also, I wish the eating window showed as a different color when you’re
- [R12] BodyFast It’s good: The app works well. I like the fasting. I have knowledge about it already so it was just good to help me get started and keep track, but I wouldn’t suggest this app for beginner.
- [R13] BodyFast So Confusing: Sorry I got involved
- [R24] BodyFast Don’t pay for coach: I have not used the coach yet they are still trying to take the money for it . Not best pleased at all . The fasting times help though
- [R43] BodyFast Nothing I can’t do myself: Paid for this app and it’s nothing I can’t do on my own. It’s a clock, which I have, an alarm, recipes mostly for vegans, and “coaching” notes with nothing special or personal to my situation. I’ll keep fasting but I’ll use my watch and Google instead of this app.
- [R6] BodyFast Deleted App: The App was showing an ad for a clean up stating I had visited adult porn sites. 100% NOT!!! So I deleted your App. You need to check your app and make sure bad actors haven’t infiltrated it.
- [R15] BodyFast Ok: Too many fake adds One says you have viruses and you will lose all data on your phone unless you get their antivirus app. Makes me wonder if this app is fake?
- [R21] BodyFast Okay but….: This offered a good visual reminder of fasting timings and count down . But it lacks some necessary features like the ability to log food, water / drinks etc and get a calorie count. Or is it that the free version doesn’t allow this? But can’t see a menu option to log - only scan a plate?
- [R11] BodyFast 18-6: Would’ve gave 5 stars if I could do 18-6
- [R29] BodyFast Apple Watch version: This is the only thing missing about the app, and if I would have another comment, maybe opening the window to more than three days of fasting, but overall it’s a great app.
- [R41] BodyFast Apple Watch: Unable to install app on Apple Watch
- [R55] Zero Love: So very helpful when I use it to track my fasting goals.
- [R58] Zero Overall good app: First week using it. Has good tools and tips. I dislike that no matter how good your meals try to be, they always have a tone of not good enough. Only way you get a good job on a meal is if it’s only protein.
- [R61] Zero Very useful and fun to use: Nice UI and very useful. Only complaint is the notifications in the app are all off but the app keeps spamming me with notifications. Had to disable it in system settings.
- [R66] FastEasy My fast buddy: This app helped me stay accountable when I first started my weight loss journey. My virtual fasting buddy. Today I continue to use the fast clock daily!
- [R69] FastEasy Easy and intuitive: I’m 65 not good with computers. This is easy
- [R72] FastEasy Favorite #1 Fasting App: This is my second time using this app. I love all that it offers from recipe ideas, explanation of where the body is during intermittent fasting, and ability to add up calories and meal intake. Thanks FastEasy!
- [R74] FastEasy Easy and Effective: I use FastEasy every day. I love having the immediate feedback as to where I am in time. Additionally, I like knowing the benefits I’m receiving as I proceed along the 16 hour timeline. I don’t track hydration or food intake, but I could. The 7 minutes of exercise is easy to do and fun. My wife just got the app today and is starting. I feel supported in my Intermittent Fasting
- [R80] Intermittent Fasting Tracker - Excelente: Fácil de usar
- [R83] Intermittent Fasting Tracker - IT SERIOUSLY WORKS.: I’ve lost close to 30 pounds a plan to keep going. I owe what this brings me in the future to this app.
- [R86] Intermittent Fasting Tracker - Very pleased: Very pleased easy to use and understand
- [R91] Intermittent Fasting Tracker - Great App: It gives more information needed.
- [R19] BodyFast Yuck: This app took my money and refused to unsubscribe me very unhappy, and yet to be unsubscribed
- [R28] BodyFast Unexpected Charges. Impossible to stop from occurring: I downloaded this app a few months ago. On the first day I was charged $29.99 three times in a row. I was never refunded for the triple charge. Then, five days later I was charged $59.99. For what??? I have tried to cancel my account and delete all of my card information on file but it’s impossible. I’ve sent emails and it’s just an auto reply
- [R33] BodyFast Scam: I canceled my subscription with the a lot of timeframe and it is still trying to charge me. I did your free trial and canceled on time now you wanna grab 60 bucks for me not happening
- [R52] Zero Look at What You’ve Become…: I’ve used Zero for years because it’s simple to use, but over the years I’ve noticed the escalating efforts to sell a Premium subscription which I understand from a business perspective. Today was the final straw, I couldn’t log a fast without agreeing to a free-seven day trial that I would have to consciously cancel in time if I didn’t want to be charged for a subscri
- [R56] Zero Okay: Honestly had no issues with the app until their 40% promotion pop up started, three slides with no exit button until you get to the end, every time I open the ap. Enough dude, have a banner or something I can ignore. If i see it again I’m ready to find a different ap
- [R59] Zero Too many ads now: I recommended this app to at least 9 friends and now I am a little embarrassed. You know an app is a sales trap and trying to trick you when the Home Screen continues to default to the “Buy the app” page each time you open it. It used to be every once in a while, now it’s almost every time I open the app. Following that, it does not provide an X in a corner that you can click o
- [R63] Zero Cant use the app: I downloaded it and its telling me to do the free trial and not the free version i havent even used the app yet
- [R65] FastEasy Dishonest STAY AWAY: Don’t use this app! Once you decide to stop subscribing, you will have to go through hell to get them to stop charging your credit card! These guys are crooks! STAY AWAY!
- [R67] FastEasy Functionality issues: Nice idea but the app is not working for me. It will not allow me to add meals. When I try to add meals it only gives me a save option. Adding liquids I do get the ad option and it is counting my steps. I’ve contacted FastEasy but have not had any satisfactory response/solutions for this problem
- [R68] FastEasy The app is terrible for IPhone: I have been trying to get through the sign up process, but the continue button never shows .. it doesn’t let me drag down the keyboard.. please fix this ..
- [R73] FastEasy Very upset: I was making my account but when I got to the fill in my weight part it wouldn’t let me put the keyboard away but the continue button was behind it. So I have been trying all different ways to get my keyboard down but nope, nothing works so Im gonna uninstall which is upsetting cause it seemed like a good app.
