Intermittent fasting that fits your 9pm dinner
What you get
Upvas was built for exactly this.
The core features that make Upvas different from the generic alternatives.
Never break your fast again because life happened
tap "I ate" and Upvas recalculates your fasting and eating window from when you actually finished dinner — anchored to your real 9pm meal, not a rigid 6pm clock.
A two-tap daily loop you'll actually keep
one timer ring, one "🍽️ I ate" button, and an honest streak that counts your last 7 days — so a single late night never wipes out months of progress.
See the dinner time that makes you succeed
the Insights heatmap builds from your own last-30-day sessions to surface your average fast, success rate, and the exact dinner hour you finish fasts at most.
Fast on your terms with 8 protocols
16:8 free, plus 14:10, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD (23:1), and 36-hour extended fasts with Pro — pick the intermittent fasting plan that matches your day.
Built for Indian and NRI fasting
Ekadashi and Navratri presets, upcoming Ekadashi dates from a lunar-tithi calculator, and omnivore, vegetarian, vegan and Jain diet modes — fully localized in English and Hindi.
Watch your body shift in real time
each fast moves through Fed, Early Fast, Fat Burn, Ketosis, Deep Ketosis and Autophagy stages, calculated from your elapsed hours so you know exactly what's happening.
Track weight and connect Apple Health
log weight on a trend chart, with optional HealthKit read/write for body mass and Mindful Minutes — fully under your control.
Private by design
your fasts, weight and preferences live on your device with no account required. No ads, no data sale, analytics off by default — with a lock-screen widget, reminders, CSV export and multi-device iCloud sync on Pro.
A look inside
See it in your hands.
A note from the studio
“I built Upvas because every fasting app I tried was designed around a 6pm dinner — and my family eats at 9pm, fasts on Ekadashi, and keeps a vegetarian table. So instead of an app that shamed me for living my life, I made one that bends the window around my real dinner. It's local-first, honest about streaks, and made for how we actually eat.”
How it works
Three steps. No account. No tracking.
01
Onboard in three cards
set your last dinner time, pick a fast window, and choose your notifications.
02
Tap "I ate" on Home — your fast and eating window auto-shift and the timer ring starts counting down.
03
Across the fast you move through metabolic stages, while the honest streak strip tracks your last 7 days.
04
Insights compounds your sessions into a dinner-time × success heatmap so you can find the dinner hour you finish fasts at most.
05
Upgrade to Upvas Pro to unlock the religious and longer protocols, unlimited history, multi-device iCloud sync, and CSV export.
