I gave one star because the concept is good as far as a fasting app goes. I am frustrated with the fact that the app advertised a lot of features that aren't really there and there was no "free trial" option to really see what it's about before purchase (I should've known better). The calorie counter feature only works about 1/4 of the time and I have to close out of the app and restart it to get it to work properly. Frustrated overall.
I enjoy the start and stop for fasting times and the reminders. The food logging items need work. It doesn't have any regular items so I don't even track on the DoFasting app. Also the reminders don't delete articles as I read them.
Almost one week into my fasting experience, I find the app very helpful for tracking my fasting and eating windows, especially with the Apple widget feature on my Home Screen. The one area that the app is lacking is the meal tracking section, I find other apps much easier to use for this detail with features like scanning barcodes and a larger selection of foods/meals pre-loaded to input.

DoFasting is a great app. It kept me on track with my fasting and eating hours. I was able to log all my vitals in a timely manner. I used it for only a month as I thought $40/month was a bit pricey for my needs. But I love the month I used the app.
App was working fine until latest update; the Fasting / Eating circle progression no longer works; this is very important (at least to me); I need to be held accountable; and this progression ring does that for me; without it; this thing is pretty much just a calorie counter & I can get that for free.

If the step count from my fitbit watch sync with the app, why can't the food, weight & water too? I like that I can input the exact amount of water in the fitbit, yet I have to use estimates with the amounts given in DoFasting. I also like seeing the way my food gets logged in fitbit over DoFasting with the calories in vs calories burned rather than just a number and being able to scan barcodes as well makes a whole lot easier.
Hello Tricia,
Thank you for your feedback! It really matters to us and helps us improve. We are currently working on new features and will soon suggest them to our users!

The fitness plan they suggested didn't take into account my age and capability. One example, they suggested burpees in my first week! They wouldn't let me choose artilcles that would like foods they recommend, so that I could build meals from what is available where I live. The support tried to be helpful, but they were limited too. The scale they sent didn't work, when I sent it back asking for my money back, they sent me a new scale instead. I don't use the app anymore. So the scale does nothing for me. I wasted my time and energy and lost motivation in my frustration. It set me back at a time when I needed support. I don't think I'll ever try another of these programs again. They feel like a scam to me/

I have tried multiple fad diets taken all the supplements you can take and couldn't loose a pound. I have went through menopause and gained 60 lbs. dealing with it. I have been with DoFasting for a week now and have lost 4 lbs. I know that's not where I want to be but its a start considering I couldn't loose with anything else. This part I like most about DoFasting is I don't feel like I am on a diet and I am not starving.
Hello Kimberly,
We couldn't be happier about your results! Intermittent fasting requires a change of lifestyle but once you do that change, the results are a guarantee! Keep going, you're doing great!

I tried this app and the first thing I noticed is they try to sell you more and more stuff. I canceled after a few days because of this and removed the app. A year later they charged me again, almost $70 I know I canceled my account and removed the app from my phone. Of course they denied this and refused to give me a refund even though it's obvious that I have never used their service. Don't get suckered into signing up for this service. You have no way to prove that you canceled and they are almost impossible to reach.
I was in need of help to part with my COVID lockdown 30 lbs weight gain. I just started the 16 hour fast program a week ago and I really feel a major difference. The program seems like a life change and not a diet. The app on my phone keeps me on track with my fast and water consumption. Very pleased with the program and think I found the life change I needed to get health back.
Hello Bill,

I started fasting before I found DoFasting and struggled with when to start, wehn to stop, what to eat, exercise, and other things. DoFasting has provided structure for my fasts as well has helps, reminders and supplements

From the start, I have been very excited about starting the DoFasting program.
Because of the fasting period, I have been able to avoid breakfast at McDonald's and/or the cinnamon rolls at the Holiday Inn Express all last week. Not only that... but lunch at Taco Bell, Burger King... etc. I am tech, who is on the road, Mon-Friday for the last 23 years. So I now I only have to worry about eating for a few hours a day. I have also stayed away from large cokes and sugary juices as well and concentrated on water.
I did buy the DoFasting drink packets, they arrived while I was out of town so today was the first time using them. I think they will help greatly in keeping me on track.
I also got the DoFasting scale and love that I can now monitor more than just my weight. The extra data it provides is kinda like a game... I WANT to see my numbers progress to the GREEN (HEALTHY), I have too many in the RED, BLUE and ORANGE.
Hello James,

I had been fasting for nearly three weeks and I had already lost some weight. I weight myself everymorning so I know that I am know gaining for sure. Sometimes I will count calories presisely, sometimes I will let myself to be more lose and enjoy some guilty meals. The programs gives some sense of control which is not an often guest in my life.

I recommend taking pictures rather than measuring the results based on scale. Also, drinking the exact amount app recommends of water. With calories be careful because it all comes to individual

I honestly do like and could seriously love my DoFasting app. I just seriously wish it had a tinsy bit more to offer. Frankly it needs more integrations into more smart blue tooth devices like other fitness trackers, digital scales and the like. Oh and let's talk about the very limited food tracker. If I only ate the food the tracker even show's I'd a quit a while ago. I'm happy with my results and love that it reminds me to track my fasts and when to start and stop eating so it's been a dream. Just wish it had a bit more to sync up with and I'd love love love it

Two things that are problematic about the app, first it has a very limited number of foods to pick when logging what I ate and second, I would like to enter the steps I walked but I don't own one of the two choice...
It would be helpful if brand name foods were included in the food tracking search. That being said, I am new to the application so maybe it is user error.
