Fasting and food, finally in one app
A timer tells you when to eat. CarbMeNot also handles what you eat — snap a photo to log your window's meals so the hours you fasted actually pay off.
The timer is only half of intermittent fasting
Whether IF works depends just as much on what you eat when the window opens.
Timers count hours only
Most fasting apps track the clock and stop there — blind to what you eat next.
The wrong break undoes it
Open a 16-hour fast with refined carbs and you spike, crash, and lose much of the benefit.
Protein is hard in a short window
Eating in fewer hours makes hitting your protein and nutrition genuinely tricky.
Two apps that don't talk
Juggling a timer app and a separate food app means neither gives you the full picture.
CarbMeNot brings both halves together, so your eating window is as intentional as your fast.
Your fast and your food, together
One app for the clock and the plate.
Track your window
Follow 16:8, 18:6, OMAD, or a custom schedule and see your windows at a glance.
Snap when it opens
Break your fast? Photograph the meal and it's logged in seconds.
Break it smart
Net carbs and protein lead, so you open the window right instead of spiking.

Fasters who dialed in the window
Illustrative journeys from people like you.
“I used to break my fast with cereal and crash by 10am. Seeing net carbs made me switch to eggs first. Total game-changer for energy.”
Owen B.“One meal a day made protein really hard until I started tracking it. Now I make that window count instead of hoping.”
Meline A.“Timer in one app, food in another, syncing nothing — done with that. Having both together is why I stuck with fasting.”
More than a fasting timer
A clock alone can't tell you if your eating window works.

Intermittent fasting FAQs
- Does CarbMeNot track my fasting window?
- Yes. Track your fasting and eating windows (16:8, 18:6, OMAD, or custom) and, in the same app, log what you eat when the window opens with photo-based calorie and net-carb tracking.
- What should I eat to break a fast?
- Lead with protein and fat and keep net carbs moderate — eggs, Greek yogurt, fish or meat with vegetables, or nuts — rather than refined carbs that spike blood sugar after a long fast. The app shows net carbs and protein so you can break your fast well.
- What's the best fasting schedule for weight loss?
- 16:8 is the most popular and sustainable for most people, but the best schedule is the one you can keep consistently. Fasting mainly helps by making an overall calorie deficit easier, so what you eat in the window still matters.
- Is intermittent fasting safe?
- It's generally well tolerated for healthy adults, but not for everyone. Talk to your doctor first if you're pregnant or nursing, diabetic, underweight, or taking medication. CarbMeNot provides general information, not medical advice.
- Is it free?
- Yes — free to download on iOS and Android with no signup, and fasting and core food tracking are on the free tier.
