One app. One honest price.
nüchtern is free to use — no ads, no account, no tracking. Pro is a single, one-time CHF 29 purchase that supports ongoing development. It doesn't unlock a "better" fasting tracker: it's the same app, with a few extra bits of depth — complete history, custom goal lengths, keep screen awake, 40-day backup snapshots and Mood Check-in's full pattern view — for people who want them.
Everything you need to fast well: the timer & dial, water tracking, a daily mood check-in with a one-minute guided breathing pause, the Daily Rhythm tip, the Winning Moment share card, the science & safety guides, all 8 goal presets (13h–72h), light/dark/auto appearance, and 2 free themes (Classic & Midnight OLED). 100% offline, no account, ever.

Still deciding?
Free has everything you need to fast well, for as long as you use nüchtern. Pro is there if you'd like to support the project and see your complete history — a one-time CHF 29 payment, yours for life while the launch offer runs.
No subscription. No account. Your data never leaves your device, license or not.
The app interface is available in English, German, French, Italian and Spanish.
Before you decide
No. It's a single one-time CHF 29 payment through Stripe — no recurring charge, no card kept on file by nüchtern, no account to manage.
Seven things: your complete fasting history in the Journey tab (Free shows your last 6 fasts; Pro shows all of them, no cap), custom goal lengths — set any goal from 1–168 hours instead of picking from the 8 presets, Keep screen awake, so the dial stays glanceable without the screen dimming while a fast runs, backup & recovery — full export and import are free for everyone, because carrying your own data to a new phone or browser shouldn't cost anything; Pro adds a rolling 40-day on-device snapshot, so an accidental reset can be undone without having a file to hand, Mood Check-in's full breathing library & pattern view — Free's daily check-in stays complete either way, and so does its guided breathing pause: the physiological sigh, one minute. Pro opens the other four patterns plus a custom builder, the three- and five-minute pauses, optional tones and vibration, and a visual pattern of how you've been feeling over time, Fast Together's friend cap raised from 4 to 8, and 15 additional themes across the Swiss, Sport, Calm and World collections in Settings → Themes (tap any of them to preview instantly, before you buy). Everything else in the app is identical on both plans.
Yes. Free is not a trial and never expires — the timer, water tracking, guides, all presets and the 2 free themes stay fully usable with no time limit and no nagging.
No. Once your license verifies on a device, it's trusted from then on — there's no expiry check and no phone-home. "Launch offer" describes the CHF 29 one-time price and duration of this promotion for new purchases, not a countdown on keys already issued: any key bought during the offer stays lifetime, even after the offer ends.
Yes — a license is a plain key you redeem, not a device-locked account, so it works wherever you enter it. There's no device limit or usage tracking to enforce otherwise; this is an honor-system, one-time-purchase model, not a subscription license server.
Check the receipt email from your Stripe checkout — your key is included there. If you still can't find it, contact [email protected] with your purchase details and it'll be sorted out directly.
A short, paced breathing exercise built into Mood Check-in — and it isn't behind the paywall. After logging how you feel, tap "Take a moment" and a calm panel guides you through slow in/out breaths with an expanding circle and a phase counter — timed entirely on its own, with no water or other data logged as a side effect. Free breathes the physiological sigh — two inhales and one long exhale, the fastest way to take the edge off a hunger wave — for one minute. Pro opens the rest of the library: box breathing, 4-7-8, coherent and humming, a custom pattern you build yourself, three- and five-minute pauses, and optional tones and vibration so the whole thing can be done with your eyes closed. That's what makes it a quick reset between tasks or a longer wind-down at night.
