WAIT AI is an AI-powered intermittent fasting companion built for iOS, with the goal of helping users lose weight and improve their eating habits. It is officially positioned as a quiet, useful app without distractions.
In terms of purpose, WAIT is centered on intermittent fasting, helping users track fasting windows, get nutritional guidance, and understand the changes in the body during fasting.
Its main capabilities include four parts:
- A fasting timer with a brain: Users can choose preset windows such as 16/8, 14/10, and 18/6, or customize their own schedule. The app runs in the background, monitors time, and quietly determines when to eat and when not to eat. It supports lock screen widgets.
- Food Q&A: A built-in nutritionist, trained on the questions users actually ask, can answer questions about macronutrients, how to break a fast cleanly, what to eat when feeling down, and more, while providing personal context.
- Hour-by-hour body observations: Users can see hour by hour what is happening in the body, including glycogen depletion, fat burning, ketones, and autophagy, with scientific sources, emphasizing honesty rather than hype.
- Data statistics: It provides data such as streaks, averages, and longest fasts, with charts that are clear at a glance. It supports 7-day, 30-day, and 1-year views, and can export to the Health app.
In terms of how to use it, WAIT is an iOS app. After downloading, users choose or customize a fasting window, and the app runs in the background and can be viewed through a lock screen widget. Users can ask the built-in nutritionist questions at any time and view hour-by-hour body changes and statistical charts.
The main use cases are iOS users who want to manage weight through intermittent fasting, improve their eating habits, and want access to nutritional Q&A and explanations of body changes.
In terms of limitations, currently only an iOS version is available, and it is not officially stated whether other platforms are supported; specific information such as in-app charges, pricing, and subscription models is not yet provided. The official emphasis is that the app has no ads and has received 1,000+ ratings on the App Store.
