Everything You Need for Spiritual Fasting

Decrease combines ancient Catholic fasting disciplines with modern tracking tools to help you grow in virtue.

Live Countdown Timer

Watch your progress in real time with a beautiful circular timer that tracks elapsed time and shows your goal. Stay motivated every second.

Fasting Journal

Record your thoughts, temptations, and spiritual insights throughout each fast. Reflect on your journey and see how you've grown over time.

Scripture & Prayer

Each fasting category comes with curated scripture verses and prayers. Let God's Word strengthen your resolve throughout the fast.

Honesty Accountability

When you end a fast, Decrease gently asks if you've truly kept it. Honesty is the foundation of your spiritual journey — no judgment, only growth.

Flexible Duration

Choose from preset durations — 4 hours to 30 days — or set a custom length. You can even fast indefinitely until you feel called to stop.

Multiple Fasts

"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." — Psalm 51:10

"

When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

— Matthew 6:16-18
