Short summary
Yazio Pro is the pick if fasting is central to your plan and you like logging by photo. Since the whole period is paid up front and can’t be shortened, start with the free app — or the occasional 7-day web trial — before committing.
Fasting plus food in one app
Every fasting plan on Pro.
Paid up front, no pause
Choose the period carefully.
- We recommend first:
- Intermittent fasters and people who want recipes and grocery lists with their tracking.
- With caveats:
- Anyone who wants a free app without upgrade prompts — recent reviews complain about them.
Who Yazio is for, and who it isn’t

Our score and what it’s made of
This is our own assessment based on checked facts. It isn’t an average of user reviews or the provider’s claim. Below — every criterion with its weight and source.
5,0
out of 5 · 5 of 7 criteria checked
The score is calculated from the criteria you see below: each criterion shows its weight, what exactly we found and where. Where we have the provider’s page, there’s a link with a check date; where the number comes from our catalog, we say so. “Not checked” means we don’t have the data and the criterion isn’t counted. “Provider doesn’t say” means we went through the provider’s pages but the information isn’t there; that criterion isn’t counted either. If you disagree with the weights — in the methodology you’ll see all the parts and can weigh them your own way. We don’t put app store ratings into structured data: they were collected on other websites, so they stay as visible text.

What US App Store reviewers say
Yazio has 4.7 out of 5 stars from 51,000 ratings on the US App Store. We also read the 50 most recent US reviews — 24 of them gave one or two stars. Recent reviews skew toward people with a problem, so read them as a list of what can go wrong, not as a verdict.
Upgrade prompts
The top complaint: full-screen subscription offers after logging meals in the free app.
Onboarding
Some find the sign-up questions too long.
Bugs
A few report calorie totals not updating or duplicate entries.
Expect upgrade prompts on the free version; Pro removes the paywalls but is paid up front.
Reminders and Buddies
Yazio keeps you going with reminders and a light social layer.
Meals
Reminders for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks at the times you choose.
Weigh-ins
Daily, or weekly on a set day.
Water and fasting
Nudges to drink – and when a fast starts or ends.
Buddies
See friends’ calories, what they have left, their goal and their steps, if they track them.
Share recipes
Send your own recipes to friends and family so they can log them.
Turn reminders on under Profile → Settings → Reminders.

App ratings in the stores
These are ratings from store users. They rate how the app works; they say nothing about whether the subscription price is fair.
Ratings change constantly and often drop after price increases or removed features. We show the value from the check date together with the number of reviews, because 4.8 from two hundred and 4.5 from two million ratings aren’t the same thing.
Account and terms
Data export, sharing, cancellation and refunds.
Social features
- Buddies: see friends’ calorie intake, goals and step counts, and compare progress.
- Invite buddies by link from the Profile tab.
- Pro is purchased per account.

Canceling and refunds
Canceling stops renewal; you keep Pro until the paid end date. It doesn’t refund automatically, and the subscription can’t be paused or shortened. App Store and Google Play purchases are refunded by Apple and Google; for website purchases Yazio describes a legal right to cancel within 14 days.
Pro period
Paid up front, renews for the same length.
Apple or Google
They manage cancellation and refunds.
Deleting isn’t canceling

What we don’t claim
Common claims about Yazio, next to what Yazio says.
AI food tracking is free.
It started free and is now part of Pro.
You can pay Pro month by month.
The full amount is charged at the start of the period.
You can pause Pro.
Active subscriptions can’t be paused or shortened.
If there’s no price on the page, the service isn’t available in the US.
Not necessarily. More often it means the provider doesn’t publish a fixed price or shows it only at checkout. Availability and a published price are two different things.
An annual plan always works out cheaper.
Cheaper than the monthly plan only if you use the whole period. You pay for the whole year up front, and when you cancel you usually don’t get the unused part back — so it’s a saving for people who already know they’ll stay all year.
Deleting the app cancels the subscription.
No. Deleting the app doesn’t stop the payments — only canceling in the account where you bought the subscription does. The app disappears, the bill stays.
Every plan looks the same in every country.
No. The list of plans, the features in the same plan and the available languages can differ. That’s why we don’t carry data from another country over to the US page.
The price on the pricing page is exactly what you’ll be charged.
Not always. US providers list prices before sales tax, and whether tax is added at checkout — and how much — depends on your state. On one VPN order page we saw a 6.25% sales tax added on top of the listed monthly price.
This list isn’t an accusation against the service. If you find something on our page that doesn’t match the official source, write to us.

Think twice if
You want to pay month to month.
Skip it if
You only need a basic food diary.

FAQ
How we work
This page is a comparison, and for every claim we say where it comes from.
The provider’s sources
The facts come from yazio.com/en and the Yazio Help Center (Pro features, trial, purchasing, billing, refunds, canceling, AI tracking, fasting tracker, Buddies).
We don’t write prices into the text
Prices are in the price block, in the price list’s currency, with a source and a date.
Product facts are shared, market facts aren’t
How many screens a plan allows, how many devices an account works on, how many servers a network has — that doesn’t depend on the country, and on our pages those numbers are the same in every language; a separate tool watches over that. Price, promotions, availability and app language belong to the market, and we never carry them over from another country.
The provider’s list is the same for everyone
If a service publishes a list of countries or languages, we can say whether the US is on it — that list looks the same for everyone. Checkout, however, can look different for every account, so for amounts a provider shows only at checkout we write: check before you pay.
A shorter section doesn’t mean something is missing from the product
If a section here is shorter than for another service, it’s because the provider publishes less about it. We don’t fill the gap with generic wording just to make the page look more complete.
Three different answers
We distinguish between “none”, “the provider doesn’t say” and “we didn’t find it”. They’re three different situations — mixing them up would turn our own limitation into a flaw in the product.
A price without a source isn’t shown
If an amount has no source and date, we don’t show it. An empty spot is more honest than a number that only looks right — and prices change more often than articles get updated.
Data from the US market
This page isn’t a translation of another language version. Numbers from other countries don’t end up here: markets differ, and that’s exactly why this page exists.
Affiliate links are labeled at the link
If a link is an affiliate link, we say so right next to it. The commission doesn’t affect what we write — and you know about it before you click.
We fix errors openly
If we got something wrong, we fix it and note what changed. A silent correction would mean you never find out you once relied on wrong information.
If anything on this page has gone out of date, write to us — we’ll fix it and note the date.
The order in the comparison is decided by the type of service; commission size doesn’t affect it.
Some links to providers are affiliate links: if you subscribe through them, we may earn a commission. It affects neither the price nor the placement in the comparison. Affiliate links are always labeled next to the link itself.
