For break from food notifications, Swiggy launches ‘Fasting Mode’

Offering users the flexibility to pause notifications whenever they observe a fast, food delivery app Swiggy on Monday announced the launch of the ‘Fasting Mode’ feature.

In a statement, the online food delivery firm said that starting with Ramzan and extending to other fasting periods such as Navratri, this feature does not interfere during fasting hours while keeping the platform ready for users when they need it.

The users can also switch fasting mode on or off anytime from the app. “Once activated, food notifications will be paused between suhoor (pre-dawn) and 4pm for all users fasting during Ramzan. Notifications automatically resume after fasting hours, without users having to turn them back on,” Swiggy stated.

The mode shall continue to be available throughout the year for various fasting occasions, giving users more flexibility in managing their notifications.
