Whether you practice intermittent fasting, religious fasting, or you just want to cut down on your late night snacking, Empty is the companion app to help you fast (and eat) with intention.
It's been such a joy working with @rafsoh on Empty over the past few months!
π¨π¨π¨
We've put attention into every little detail and talked with hundreds of testers to make sure we deliver all of the features you'd expect from a great fasting app and more. π»
If you're one of those people who's been receiving constant follow-ups from me in your Twitter DMs, I can't thank you enough. The app simply wouldn't be what it is without your feedback.
π€ Β· Why did we build Empty?
We originally started building Empty out of our own need. When I decided to restart my intermittent fasting practice at the start of 2024, I felt like everything on the App Store was bloated with unnecessary features and upsells.
Instead of making our app "free" and thinking of clever ways to convert users to premium, we decided just to make it a paid app so that you can get the full experience with no ads or locked features.
This week Empty is just $1. You buy it and it's yours forever, and we really hope you get great value for your investment.
π¬ Β· We still want more feedback!
We know that launch day is also the best day to find out how a product can be even better, and we're ready for the floodgates to open!
Hit us up any time on Twitter or via email. We always try to be as responsive as possible. π«Ά
@khlebobul no way!!! We're so glad you've been following along and get to take it for a spin now :) hit us up any time with your thoughts and feature requests please.
That's really an app crafted with love and passion.
As a developer, I can feel the pursuit of perfection on every screen. Everything is there for a reason, making EmptyFasting a truly great app πππ
@itaih finally!!!! π₯³
We're gonna keep making it better for you Itai. Thanks for all of the feedback you've given so far. I know you're dying for the β app lol
@raffichill and I first connected over our shared love for minimal, focused mobile apps; it only made sense that we built one of our own.
Empty is the product of a 2.5 month sprint: countless Figma prototypes, scrappy implementations, beta builds, and rapid iterations. I sincerely hope Empty will empower you to kickstart and maintain a healthy intermittent fasting habit π«Ά
No subscription! No in-app purchases. One-time payment to use this awesome fasting app. I wish more apps had this simple yet beautiful and thoughtful design. Donβt even get me started on the haptic feedback - feels great. One of my top apps this year π₯ highly recommended.
Absolutely love the simplicity of using this app! Been testing this app for a while now and I can comfortably say that this is one of the clutter free, easy to use fasting app I've come across. Alternatives to this app have too many features which I don't intend to use and comes with a price tag that doesn't justify my use-case.
Finally, thanks to @raffichill for hearing through all my feedback and getting it implemented with the light speed co-founder @rafsoh. Wishing you both the very best!
@jopie you definitely don't need this app if you've already solidified your habit! Some people like using apps either to build new habits or track existing ones with more detail. I'm personally in between. Somethings I find worth tracking, others not. But as a novice with intermittent fasting I like having a timer running for accountability.
Hi guys, I did fasting often in summer and didn't eat something for breakfast. In winter during my hockey season it's almost impossible, because I feel so hungry all the time. In average almost burn 3000 calories a day and so I need food to feel comfortable. Will check your app after my hockey season ;) Good luck and congrats for your launch!
Empty has been such a fantastic tool. I've got like 26 fasts tracked with it and it just keeps getting better (functionality and polish wise). More than that, Empty and fasting has helped me to kick my late evening snacking and eating habit and I feel like it has attributed to better sleep.
Such a simple and single purpose product. Well done! And I'm just surprised that @raffichill still responds to all my product feedback DMs. π
@tprimke Hey Thorban, thank you for supporting the app since the very beginning. Really hope we've met your expectations thus far; we will strive to continue delivering :)
I'm in love with the widget. The overall UI/UX approach is perfectβsimple yet effective. I would love to see a feature more focused on accountability such as a visual representation of how many times you have failed to complete the fast and why. A leaderboard for consistency could also be a cool feature to compete with friends. Congratulations on the launch!
@brett_chalmers we're thinking about how to improve those feedback loops without making it too competitive/discouraging! Always trying to strike that perfect balance where the product feels like an approachable/friendly but effective coach.
Shoutout to the Empty app team for creating a user-friendly intermittent fasting app! Your responsiveness to input and public sharing of the building process is commendable. Best of luck on your product launch!
A perfect app for tracking your fasting - its clean, well-structured UI immediately appealed to me. Though I donβt fast often, I recommended this to a family member who was doing intermittent fasting, and she loved it. Defo worth the dollar ππ»
Day one and itβs just so brilliantly simple and useful. I have completed my 13hr fast today with the help and guidance of Empty Fasting! Definitely worth it
Beautiful and clean app! Well done for creating an app for this purpose. Also a great time you've decided for your launch! What specific features do you offer in your app? Curious to know.
@hosseinyazdi thanks Hossein! Honestly we just stuck to the basics, and tried to do them well. Scheduling, editing, adding old fasts, notifications, etc.
We have live activities and widgets too!
I've been testing the app for a bit and just love its simplistic approach to fasting. @rafsoh and @raffichill's attention to detail is phenomenal. You've got to try out the app just for the haptic feedback.
I've been intermittent fasting for many years and every app I've used has turned to a subscription model and become cluttered with extraneous features. This app looks so clean, beautiful and to the point. I'm looking forward to trying it out! Well done π
