Food delivery giant Swiggy has announced a new feature that will allow users to pause food-related notifications during fasting periods.
This ‘Fasting Mode’ ensures that users are not disturbed by food alerts while observing Ramzan, Navratri, or other fasting occasions.
How Does the Fasting Mode Work?
Users can turn the feature on or off anytime through the Swiggy app.
Once enabled, food-related notifications will be paused automatically during fasting hours.
Notifications resume after fasting hours to keep users updated when they need food services.
The feature will be available for various fasting events throughout the year.
Swiggy stated that this feature is aimed at enhancing user experience and respecting cultural and religious practices.
