What Zero offers
Zero pairs fasting with meal and protein tracking, photo logging, and personalised insights. It makes sense when those nutrition tools are part of the routine you want to record.
When Fastalune fits
Choose Fastalune when you primarily want a timer and a private, editable history. You can add mood or a written note without creating a separate meal log.
| Priority | App to try |
|---|---|
| A local timer, editable history, and an optional journal | Fastalune |
| The additional tracking or guidance described above | Zero |
Try the workflow
If food records are useful to you, try recording the same meal in Zero and decide whether you would keep up the extra step.
Think about your records
Fastalune can export a readable JSON backup that you keep yourself. For either app, check how it handles your notes and how you can retrieve them before relying on it.
