Yuru Fasting — Gentle 16h

Yuru Fasting is the gentle way to do intermittent fasting — one you can actually keep up.

◆ Why "gentle"?

Strict water-only fasting often breaks a life. Dinners with family, time with friends — these matter too much to give up. This app helps you care for your brain and cells without sacrificing the relationships and rituals that make life rich.

◆ What makes it sustainable

● Vegetables, fruits, and plain nuts are okay — foods that don't spike insulin are allowed, so it's far easier to keep going than a water-only fast. ● No streak guilt — there's nothing to compete over. Every hour you fasted simply adds up, quietly. ● Quiet notifications — the app stays out of your way. The timer runs on its own; open it only when you want to. ● Watch how you feel, not just the numbers — log your morning freshness, focus, and mood alongside your fasting hours.

◆ On your Home Screen

A new Home Screen widget keeps the changes inside you in view. Your fasting time ticks live and your current phase is right there — no need to open the app. When you're not fasting, you'll see a leaf and a gentle "From here, today."

◆ Read what's happening in your body

The time since you started fasting is shown across 11 phases. In plain language, you can read what may be happening inside you right now, backed by the science — a gentle look at the changes within, not just chasing numbers.

◆ The science behind it

Fasting for around 16 hours is associated with macroautophagy, the cell's self-renewal process, in a number of studies. Intermittent fasting has also been linked to neurotrophic factors like BDNF, which is said to relate to memory and learning. Yuru Fasting doesn't promise dramatic results — just listen to your body and keep going at your own pace.

◆ Who this is for

· People who find traditional fasting apps too strict · Those who don't want to give up meals with the people they love · Anyone who cares more about clarity and a steady mood than the scale

◆ Main features

● Fasting timer (counts to the second; target 10–20 hours) ● Your body's changes across 11 phases (tap for details) ● Trend graphs (fasting time, condition, weight) ● "Days you've cared for yourself" to look back on ● Condition log and a customizable OK-to-eat list ● Home Screen widget; works offline, your data stays on your device

◆ From the developer

I've taken on serious fasting myself, more than once — I once kept it up for about half a year and felt my head grow clear. But I kept stopping partway through. I never found the app that fit me, so I built it. You don't have to be perfect. Just give yourself time to settle, within what you can keep up.

※ If you are pregnant or nursing, under treatment for a condition such as diabetes, a minor, or have a history of an eating disorder, please consult your doctor before use.

◆ About Premium (ad-free)

There are two ways to remove ads.

The monthly plan "Premium (ad-free)" is an auto-renewing subscription. ● Plan: Premium (ad-free) ● Length: 1 month (auto-renews) ● Price: JPY 100 / month

Payment is charged to your App Store account upon confirmation. It renews at the same price unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions.

If a monthly plan isn't for you, there's also a one-time purchase. ● One-time (Remove Ads): JPY 300 in Japan (one-time, non-renewing)

You can also use every feature for free, just as before — without either purchase.
