Detailed answers about how fasting timers, nutrition logging, habits, the journal, the Vitality Score, Lux and Quies Pro+ subscriptions work.
Quies Pro is a personal record-keeping and reflection app for adults 18+. You log your fasts, meals, habits, sleep, mood and journal entries, and the app shows that data back to you in summaries, charts, and reflections. It is not a medical device, not a clinical service, and not a substitute for advice from a qualified health practitioner.
Go to the Today page and tap the "Start" button on the orbital timer. Choose your fasting protocol (e.g. 16:8, 18:6, 20:4) and the timer will track your progress through each metabolic stage.
Quies Pro supports all common intermittent fasting protocols including 16:8, 18:6, 20:4, OMAD (23:1), and custom durations. You can set your preferred protocol from the timer screen.
Tap "Me" in the bottom navigation, then go to Profile. You can set your personal details (age, height, weight, sex), activity level, diet mode, calorie goals, and target weight.
During your fast, your body progresses through metabolic stages: Settling In (0–4h), Glycogen Burning (4–8h), Fat Burn Starting (8–12h), Fat Burn Active (12–14h), Peak Fat Burn (14–16h), Autophagy Rising (16–18h), and Deep Fast (18h+). The timeline on the Today page tracks your progress.
Yes! While a fast is active, tap the start time displayed below the timer to adjust it. This is useful if you forgot to start the timer at the actual time you began fasting.
When you end a fast, the app logs the session with your actual fasting hours and asks you to log your mood. Completed fasts contribute to your streak, insights, and weekly report card.
The "Since Last Fast" counter shows how long it has been since your last completed fast ended. It helps you plan when to start your next fasting window.
Go to the Nutrition page and tap "Add Food" under any meal section (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snacks). You can search for foods by name and the app will auto-fill calories and macros.
You can set a custom calorie goal from Profile → Adjust Calories/day, or let the app suggest one based on your age, height, weight, activity level, and goal (lose, maintain, or gain weight).
Quies Pro supports Balanced, Low-Carb, High-Protein, Keto, and custom macro splits. Change your diet mode from Profile → Adjust Macronutrients.
Tap the Water quick-log button on the Today page to add 250ml per tap. You can customise your daily water goal in Profile → Water Habits.
Daily Wins on the Nutrition page track your water glasses, vegetable servings, and fruit servings. Tap an empty slot to add one, or tap a filled slot to undo it. The goals reset each day.
Yes! Simply tap on any filled water glass, veggie, or fruit slot and it will remove the last entry. This works for all three categories.
Whole foods come from the FSANZ Australian Food Composition Database, so the names and numbers match Australian food. Packaged items come from Open Food Facts, a public product database. You can also add your own foods from the packet, and we check whether the calories on the packet line up with the carbs, protein, fat and fibre you typed in.
Yes, on the paid plan. Tap the camera button on the Add Food sheet and take or choose a photo. The photo is read once to guess what is on the plate and roughly how much, then it is thrown away — we never store your meal photos. It is a guess from a picture, not a measurement, so nothing is saved until you check the items and amounts and tap save. Photo scans are limited to 15 a day.
Treat it as a starting point, not a fact. Reading calories off a photo is rough for every app that does it — portion size especially. That is why the app always shows you the items and grams first and asks you to correct them before anything goes in your diary.
Go to the Habits tab to create custom habits with daily or weekly targets. Mark them complete each day and track streaks and completion rates over time in Habit Analytics.
The Vitality Score is a weekly composite score (0–100) that combines your fasting consistency, nutrition adherence, sleep quality, hydration, exercise, and mood into a single wellness metric.
You can log your mood via the quick-log strip on the Today page, or after completing a fast. The app tracks mood trends over time and correlates them with your fasting and nutrition patterns.
Yes. Log your sleep duration and quality score from the Me page. The app reflects sleep patterns alongside your fasting and mood logs so you can spot connections in your own data.
Yes. Go to Me → Health Sync and tap Connect. You are taken to Oura to sign in and approve it, then brought straight back. Once connected, the sleep, readiness and activity figures Oura works out are copied into your diary each day and shown on the Vitals page.
Daily sleep, readiness and activity summaries, and heart-rate figures if you leave that permission ticked at the Oura screen. Nothing is written back to Oura, and Quies never sees your Oura password.
They are Oura’s own estimates from its sensors, not medical measurements, and Quies simply records and shows them back to you. Do not use them to make decisions about your health — speak to a qualified health practitioner for that.
No. Connecting an Oura Ring costs nothing extra on top of your Quies plan. You need your own Oura account and ring, which Oura charges for separately.
Me → Health Sync → Disconnect. Quies withdraws its access at Oura and deletes the keys it held for you. Any ring days already copied into your diary are removed with them, and nothing new is fetched.
Not yet — Oura is the only device Quies connects to today. You can still type sleep, weight and activity in by hand on the Me page.
Add tags to any entry by typing #yourtag (e.g. #energized, #cravings, #headache). Tags are clickable and the Tag Explorer aggregates stats per tag — average mood, fasting hours, and hydration — so you can spot patterns in your own data.
Wrap any phrase in double brackets, e.g. [[best fast]] or [[low energy]], to create a link. Other entries that mention the same phrase are connected automatically and appear in the Backlinks panel of that entry.
When viewing an entry, the Backlinks panel shows every other journal entry that links to it. This helps you trace recurring themes — like every reflection that connects back to "[[late dinner]]".
Each day, Quies Pro can auto-create a journal entry pre-filled with your live health snapshot — fasting hours, water intake, mood, and sleep. It removes the blank-page problem so you only have to add a quick reflection.
The Tag Explorer lists every tag you have used and shows aggregate insights — e.g. entries tagged #headache average 1.2L water and 5.8h sleep. It turns your journal into a personal health detective.
The Knowledge Graph (Quies Pro+) is a visual, force-directed map of all your journal entries and how they connect via tags and wiki-links. It is your personal health story — a constellation of your reflections over time.
Yes. When you create or auto-generate an entry, Quies Pro captures a health snapshot (fast hours, hydration, mood, sleep) at that moment. This powers tag analytics and pattern detection over time.
Lux is the in-app reflection companion in Quies Pro. Lux mirrors back what you have logged — fasts, meals, sleep, mood, habits, journal entries — and asks gentle, open questions. Lux is not a coach, dietitian, nutritionist, psychologist or clinician, and never gives medical, dietary or mental-health advice.
Lux follows a dignity-first safety doctrine: never shaming, never urgent, never crash-diet language. Behind the scenes Lux privately calibrates tone using your logged height/weight (a body-context hint that is never shown to you and never quoted as a number). If your stated goal conflicts with that range — for example "lose weight" while in an underweight range, or "gain weight" while in an obese range — Lux will gently suggest you speak with an Australian GP or an Accredited Practising Dietitian rather than validating the direction.
Lux can summarise your fasting patterns, surface trends across sleep or mood logs, reflect on recent journal entries, and help you find features in the app. Every AI-generated surface in Quies Pro ships with a visible disclaimer reminding you it is reflective only and not medical advice — fully within the TGA "excluded software" positioning for record-keeping tools.
Yes — Lux is available to all users with a daily message limit. Quies Pro+ unlocks additional reflective surfaces such as meal idea browsing, weekly reflection cards, and an AI-generated daily quote.
Tap the orange chat bubble in the bottom-right corner of any screen. You can drag it anywhere, expand to full-screen, and pick a category (Fasting, Nutrition, Movement, Sleep, Reflection, App help) to see suggested prompts. Output is generated text and can be wrong — never rely on it for any decision that matters. Read the full disclaimer at /disclaimer.
Lux will pause normal reflection and surface support immediately: Butterfly Foundation 1800 33 4673 (eating disorders, free), Lifeline 13 11 14 (24/7 crisis), Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636 (mental health), 13YARN 13 92 76 (Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander). In an emergency, call 000.
Quies Pro+ unlocks unlimited habits, barcode food scanning, a recipe idea library, additional health log fields (resting heart rate, glucose, ketones), body measurements logging, the full Vitality Score, and priority access to AI reflection features.
The Founder plan is a one-time launch offer for the first 499 members: $59 AUD/year for life (it stays $59 on every renewal as long as your subscription is active). After the 499 spots are gone, new members pay the standard rate of $99 AUD/year. Both plans include the exact same features — Founders just lock in the lower price permanently as a thank-you for backing Quies early.
AI features (Lux chat, meal ideas, wellness coach, daily quote) are generous but governed by a fair-use policy to keep the service sustainable for everyone. Pro members get high daily caps that comfortably cover normal use. If you ever hit a limit you will see a clear in-app message telling you when it resets (midnight local time). Limits exist to prevent abuse and runaway costs — see clause 6A of our Terms at /terms for the full policy.
After 7 days you will be charged the annual rate of $99 AUD (or $59 AUD if you joined on the Founder plan). Cancel any time before the trial ends and you pay nothing.
Yes! You can switch between monthly and annual plans at any time from your profile settings.
Three taps, about ten seconds. 1) Open Profile. 2) Tap "Manage Subscription". 3) Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm. That is it — no email to write, no phone call, no chat with a salesperson. You will see a message straight away confirming the date your plan ends.
Nothing switches off on the spot. You keep every Pro+ feature until the last day you have already paid for — that date is shown on the Manage Subscription screen. On that day your account quietly moves back to the free version of Quies. Your card is never charged again, and all your fasts, meals, journal entries, habits and stats stay in your account exactly as they are.
No. Cancelling switches off the automatic renewal, so the next payment simply never happens. You are not paying for anything beyond the time you have already bought.
Easy. Go back to Profile → Manage Subscription and tap "Resume subscription" any time before your end date. Everything carries on as if you never cancelled, and you are billed as normal at the next renewal.
No. Cancelling only stops the payments. Every fast, meal, weight entry, habit and journal note stays safe in your account. Some Pro+ only screens are locked, but nothing is deleted — if you come back later, it is all still there. Deleting your account is a separate action you have to choose yourself.
Go to Profile → Notification Settings and tap "Enable Push Notifications". Your browser will ask permission — tap Allow. If you previously blocked notifications, you'll need to enable them in your device/browser settings first.
This means your browser or device has previously denied notification permission for Quies Pro. Go to your browser settings → Site Settings → Notifications, find Quies Pro, and change it to Allow. Then return to the app and try again.
Quies Pro can send push notifications for fasting reminders, milestone celebrations, habit check-ins, and wellness tips — even when the app is closed.
Your data is stored on managed infrastructure provided by Supabase, with the underlying database physically hosted in Tokyo, Japan (AWS region ap-northeast-1). It is NOT stored in Australia. By creating an account you consent to this cross-border disclosure under Australian Privacy Principle 8 (APP 8). Full details are in Section 5 of our Privacy Policy at /privacy.
Quies Pro is built on Supabase (managed Postgres + auth + storage), and our project was provisioned in the Tokyo region for performance and availability reasons. Migrating to a Sydney region is not currently supported on our plan. Under s 16C of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), Quies Pro remains accountable for how our overseas providers handle your data, even though it lives outside Australia.
No. We never sell your personal or health information. The only third parties that touch your data are infrastructure providers required to deliver the service: Supabase/AWS (hosting in Tokyo), Stripe (payments in AUD), and Google Gemini via the Lovable AI Gateway (AI suggestions — not used for training). We use no third-party analytics or tracking services, and fonts are served from our own site.
Go to Profile → Change Email or Change Password. You'll receive a verification email for email changes.
Yes, and it takes about ten seconds. Go to Profile, scroll to the red "Danger Zone", tap "Delete my account", type DELETE and confirm. Everything you have tracked is erased, your sign-in is removed, any paid plan is cancelled straight away so your card is never charged again, and connected devices are disconnected. It cannot be undone, so tap "Export my data" first if you want a copy. If you only want the payments to stop, cancel instead — cancelling keeps your history.
Cancel any time in Profile → Manage Subscription, or email support@quies.dev. You keep access until the end of your billing period. Annual plans within the first 30 days qualify for a full refund (subject to limited use). For all refund details and your Australian Consumer Law rights, see /refunds.
Yes — your entries are encrypted while they travel between your phone and our servers, and encrypted while they are stored. Only your own account can read your records. To be straight with you about the limit: Quies Pro is not "end-to-end encrypted", because the app has to be able to read your entries to draw your charts and write your reflections. We also do not hold ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certification, and no app can honestly promise it will never have a security flaw. If a serious breach ever happens, we will tell you and the OAIC, as the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme requires.
Quies Pro is for adults 18 and over only, so we ask your date of birth once at sign-up to check you are eligible. We keep it, and a note of the day you made that declaration, for one reason: if an account later turns out to belong to someone under 18, we can show the age check ran and that the answer we were given was untrue. We never use it for advertising, profiling or anything else, and it is deleted along with everything else the moment you delete your account. We do not ask for photo ID, a face scan, or any document.
Yes. Go to Profile and tap "Export my data" — it downloads everything we hold about you as a file. Most people do this just before deleting their account.
