Upvas
Intermittent fasting calibrated for Indian dinner times.
An intermittent-fasting timer built around real Indian eating patterns — 9pm dinners, Ekadashi and Navratri fasts — with vegetarian, vegan and Jain diet modes, a metabolic-stage ring, weight tracking and optional Apple Health sync. Hindi and English, INR-first pricing, and everything stored on your device.
Upvas offers an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your App Store or Google Play account; it renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends, and you can manage or cancel anytime in your account settings. Terms and Privacy Policy.

See what holds
History and insights show which windows your body actually keeps — and which ones you break.
A note from the studio
“Every fasting app is built around a 6pm Western dinner. NRI and Indian families eat at 9pm, fast on Ekadashi, and need a vegetarian mode — so we made the one that actually fits.”
Questions
The honest answers.
How is this different from other fasting apps?
Upvas is built around Indian meal timing and observances — 9pm dinners, Ekadashi, Navratri — with vegetarian, vegan and Jain diet modes and Hindi as a first-class language. Most apps assume a 6pm Western dinner.
Where is my fasting and weight data stored?
On your device, in a local database. Optional iCloud sync covers your preferences and most recent sessions, and stays between your own devices.
Does it use Apple Health?
Optionally. With your permission it can read your weight and write your fasts as Mindful Minutes (and your weight back to Health). Nothing is sent to us.
Do you show ads or sell my data?
No ads, no data sale, no third-party ad SDKs. Analytics and crash reporting are off by default and can be enabled in Settings.
Do I need an account?
No. Upvas is local-first — the only "account" is an optional first name you choose so the app can greet you. There is no sign-up or login.
Is this medical advice?
No. Upvas is a wellness and tracking tool. Fasting isn't right for everyone — talk to your doctor before starting, especially if you're pregnant, diabetic, or have a medical condition.

Reading Your Intermittent Fasting Progress Chart Honestly
Your intermittent fasting progress chart probably shows a streak. What it rarely shows is whether you're actually fasting — or just starting timers and calling it close.

The Fasting Data Your Doctor Actually Wants to See
Most fasting apps give you streaks. But the fasting data your doctor wants is completion rate, weight trend, and why you broke the fast — not just when.
