Wow! I've been using Zero for a few weeks (doing 16:8) and I loved the simplicity of it. I just updated the app and I loved the little onboarding. Cute illustrations. New interface is looking great. I appreciate that it didn't erase my previous data 🔥

Brilliant idea but... *internally screams in agony* why wouldn't you launch for android? You def missed out on a lot of launch traffic because of it 😕

Heavy focus on iOS (the world has changed, look outside of SV/US for adoption rate...) No social features. I prefer life : https://lifeapps.io/apps/life-fa... Cross-platform and social.

This app really needs to add a feature which allows me to start my fast at a past time. Most days, I do not remember to open Zero to record when I've taken my last bite of food. Several hours can pass before I remember to start the fast timer, which makes this app useless.

I use it daily to track my fasts. At first, I didn't have the reflex to use it but after a few days, it became automatic. Now I'm excited to see my progress and it motivates me to keep going.

Pros:

Easy to use, nicely designed.

Cons:

None I can think of.

Any chance there's a TestFlight build available for Zero? I previously helped beta test Oak and would enjoy helping out on the edge here too if possible.

Incredible app, been using for a couple of months. Yay, v3. Oh wait, it now requires an account. Sadly, uninstalled. Privacy and offline capable apps are possible, so do not switch from that model without warning users, this is very bad practice IMHO.

Great app. It has helped me a lot with the fasting. v3 looks amazing. Do you think the apple watch might be able to detect the fasting state in the future?

Pros:

Love this app.

Cons:

Nothing major. Keep forgetting to click the end fast so some days it goes longer than what my real fasting hours.

Love the update! I’m slowly and naturally slipping into 18:6 and 20:4 territory but I’m constantly told by those close to me that something is wrong with me. Would love to see some sort of community aspect to the app where we could chat with other fasters, share tips and learnings etc.

I love Zero and I love the ongoing development. I’ll echo what Julie says with the onboarding - thanks for building in keychain! Looking forward to using it more.

@kevinrose @mike_maser First time opening the app since pre-v3. You didn’t communicate the mandatory sign-up change at all. What happened to my data? In the past the promise was that it would be stored on my device & easily exportable. Now, completely inaccessible. If I sign up will it be wiped?

Beautiful and functional app.

Pros:

I have been using this for a while and the new release looks awesome

Cons:

Little too early for any cons, but I didn't find any before so I doubt I will now

Thanks for a Zero has been a great app from the start, the added features will be a great way to keep up with the fasting and learn some new things along the way.

Pros:

Beautiful upgrade with a ton of extra functionality

Cons:

Don't make me create an account right away. I really wanted to kick the tires on the new app before turning over my email address.

@kevinrose your apps always look great buddy (love the homage to horology here), but it breaks my heart to see them on iOS only 😉

I've been practicing IF since 2017, most days 12-14 hours, some days 16-18 hours. I'd commit to memory what my last feeding time was every single night so having this app is super helpful! Not to mention the community aspect of togetherness and accountability. Great work @kevinrose @mike_maser! :)

Thank you @kevinrose for your generosity with high quality wellness apps like Zero v3.0 and Oak .

Used off and on for the past two years, but finally committed to daily 16 hour fasts in December. This completely changed my day to day life (in addition to switching from coffee to tea and cutting most processed foods from diet).

Pros:

Great update to an already useful app

Cons:

Many new features– most are cool, but very much appreciate the simplicity of v2 and don't want more features

I've been using the beta for a few weeks and I have 80 fasts total logged. I love the redesign and the simplicity of the app.. especially the v3 notifications for "time left". I do miss seeing the bar graphs of previous fasts that the old version had -- it was a good way to see more chain of progress. I know the new one has that functionality but it's a bit buried.

Really helpful app! But fasting shouldn't be a challenge. In my point of view, we shouldn't track every minute we fast. Fasting is more a lifestyle. Not a challenge where we force our-self not eating. it should be a pleasure instead
