What is PureBite?
PureBite is an intermittent fasting tracker for iPhone. You pick a plan (like 16:8, extended, or Ramadan), start and end fasts with a live countdown, see history and streaks, optionally log mood, and browse recipes when your eating window opens. It is not a calorie counter or medical app.
Do I need an account?
No. Fasting history, preferences, mood notes, measurements, and saved recipes stay on your device, and they're also backed up to your own private iCloud so they survive a reinstall and appear on your other devices. We can't read that copy, and there is no account registration.
Is the timer free?
Yes. Core plans including 16:8 are free to start. PureBite Plus unlocks advanced and custom protocols and deeper recipe access. Purchases use Apple In-App Purchase (via RevenueCat).
How does Ramadan work?
The Ramadan plan uses your device location (when you allow it) to estimate local Fajr and Maghrib for suhoor and iftar. Calculation methods are astronomical. Local mosques often add a few minutes of precaution — follow your mosque when times differ. PureBite does not send your location to our servers.
Why does PureBite ask for location?
Only if you enable Ramadan, so fasting and eating windows can follow local dawn and sunset on your device. You can deny permission and use other plans. See the Privacy Policy.
Are extended fasts safe?
Extended and multi-day fasts are a bigger commitment. PureBite shows a safety sheet before long plans and supports daily check-ins. Stop if you feel unwell. PureBite is not medical advice — talk to a clinician before extended fasting, especially if you have a health condition, take medication, are pregnant, or have a history of eating disorders.
Which recipes are free?
You can browse and use a free set of recipes for your eating window. PureBite Plus unlocks the fuller catalog, richer detail, and shopping-list depth. The fasting timer itself does not require Plus.
Do recipes work offline?
The fasting timer works offline. After the recipe catalog has been downloaded, browsing and opening installed recipes can work without a network connection. Catalog updates need a connection when available.
US or Metric units?
Choose US or Metric in You → Measurements. Recipe ingredients, the shopping list, and the add-item form convert to your choice. Your preference stays on device.
Will PureBite send me notifications?
Only if you turn on fasting reminders. The system permission appears after you choose to enable them — not on first launch.
Is this medical advice?
No. PureBite does not diagnose or treat conditions. Intermittent fasting is not right for everyone. Talk to a doctor before changing how you eat, especially if you are pregnant, have a history of eating disorders, or manage a medical condition.
How do I restore a purchase?
Open PureBite → You / Profile → Restore purchases (also available on the Plus paywall).
