BodyFast App Review UK (2026)
A fasting timer with serious billing problems - 84% of Trustpilot reviews are 1-star
What is BodyFast?
BodyFast is an intermittent fasting app that helps users follow various fasting schedules. It offers a fasting timer, personalised fasting plans generated by what they call a "fasting coach", and basic tracking features.
The app supports popular fasting methods like 16:8, 5:2, and various other intermittent fasting protocols. Premium subscribers get access to personalised weekly fasting schedules.
What BodyFast Offers
- Fasting Timer: Tracks fasting and eating windows
- Weekly Fasting Plans: Personalised schedules (premium)
- Fasting Methods: 16:8, 5:2, and other protocols
- Progress Tracking: Weight and fasting history
- Statistics: Overview of fasting streaks
BodyFast Pricing UK
- Free Version: Basic fasting timer
- Annual: Around £29.99/year for Coach features
- Lifetime: One-time purchase option available
The pricing seems reasonable compared to other fasting apps - but the billing complaints suggest getting charged may be easier than stopping charges.
The App Experience
The app itself is straightforward - a fasting timer that shows your current fasting window and counts down to your next eating period. The "Coach" feature creates personalised weekly fasting schedules based on your goals.
The interface is clean and the core functionality works. But given the volume of billing complaints, even satisfied users may encounter problems when trying to cancel.

Who BodyFast Is For

Weekly fasting plans if you want a schedule to follow.
Careful Subscribers
Only if you're prepared to monitor billing closely.
Free Users Only
The free version avoids billing issues entirely.
Who Should Look Elsewhere
- Anyone concerned about billing: The complaints are overwhelming
- Those who value customer service: Support is reportedly unresponsive
- Trial testers: Cancellation issues make trials risky
- Calorie trackers: This is a fasting timer, not a food diary
The Bottom Line
BodyFast offers a functional intermittent fasting timer with personalised weekly plans. The core app works fine for tracking fasting windows.
However, the 1.6 Trustpilot rating with 84% 1-star reviews cannot be ignored. The billing complaints are too consistent and too serious. Users report charges continuing long after cancellation, with customer service either unresponsive or unhelpful.
If you want to try intermittent fasting, consider the free version only - or look at alternatives with better billing reputations. Subscribing to premium carries significant risk of ongoing charges that may be difficult to stop.
Our verdict: Functional app, serious billing problems. Use the free version only.
