About MyFastingClock

MyFastingClock is a free unlimited web fasting timer for 16:8, OMAD, and open-ended fasts. The product lives at myfastingclock.com. It is not a clinic, not a diet program, and not medical advice.

The site exists so someone can start a clock without a paywall, read a calm explanation of what the labels mean, and stop when they should. Ads and optional donations keep it free. There is no subscription and no time cap.

What you will find here

A timer for daily windows and for longer fasts, with history on the device (and optional sign-in if you want the same log on another phone).

A Fasting Library of notes we wrote for this site: practice (Fundamentals), research limits, and history. Each article is meant to answer one question in plain language, with caveats in the same page, not in a footnote you never reach.

A Learn page that explains the educational stage badges on the clock. Those badges follow approximate elapsed hours. They are not lab results.

What this is not

Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis. Not a treatment for diabetes, obesity, or anything else.

Not a challenge platform. There is no public leaderboard of hours fasted. Friends, if you use them, are private encouragement, not pressure.

Not a scraped blog. We do not republish other people’s articles. Research notes describe what human trials tend to measure and where those trials stop. They are not a license to copy a protocol.

How the notes are written

One primary question per article. Titles match that question.

Practice, history, and research stay in separate layers. A historical custom is not a 16:8 prescription. A mouse study is not a human outcome.

Safety notes come early in the Fundamentals series. Who should be careful and When to stop a fast are first-class pages, not fine print.

We state limits in the body of research pieces: who was studied, for how long, what was compared, and what the paper cannot prove.

We do not invent medical credentials. The library is educational writing by the people who build the timer. When a topic needs a clinician, the page says so.

Who it is for

Adults who already decided, with whatever advice they need, that they want a simple clock and honest reading. It is not for children. It is not for pregnancy, eating-disorder recovery, or unsupervised medical fasting.

If you are not sure fasting is appropriate, start with the safety note and a qualified professional, not with the Start button.

How the site stays free

Small banner ads (Google AdSense, when approved and serving) and an optional tip jar. Ads are not supposed to cover the timer or trap you on a dead-end screen.

You can use the timer without creating an account. Sign-in is only for sync and friends.
