Useless unless you pay

Do not download this app unless you’re willing to pay. They have put the most basic features behind a pay wall and they make you say you don’t want to pay every single time the app loads. I don’t have the money to pay for an app to log my water intake. I used this app for a week, but just couldn’t take constant push to get you to pay. So, unless you’re willing to pay $3-20 a month (ridiculous), don’t even bother downloading it.

Just started using

I just needed to find something that would help me track all intake levels of hydration since I am someone that needs to keep up with my low carb diet. I only drink morning coffee then will move onto herbal tea in the afternoon. I have discovered this app is just wonderful for helping me build up hydration as my health is in need of having this take place. Thank you so much for having a great app to help me with keeping track of water intake throughout the day!

No widget

It says they have a widget yet I have tried multiple times to find it and it is not in my widgets at all. This would help me remember to track. Please fix!

Hydro Coach

I drinking water it is good for you to drink lots and lots of water every day

Couldn't use it..

So it asks you all these health questions. I'm fit and healthy, go to the gym 4 times a week. Just need something to nudge me and say "oi... water!". You get to a part where you have to check either diziness or lightheaded, muscle cramps ir spasms, rapid heartbeat or palpatations, feeling feint or dizzy. You cannot select none of the above.. so seeminly this app is assuming I'm obese (I'm not) and need a lot more help than I actually do. Looked good, not used. Devs, maybe think about having a simple and easy setup to override all the faff?

Hydro

It’s really cool and it works for me!

UNETHICAL ,THIS IS A SCAM. NO FREE CORE FUNCTIONS. THEY HARVEST YOUR DATA THEN YOU MUST PAY TO USE

UNETHICAL APP, STAY AWAY, who is giving all these glowing reviews to an app that makes you create a profile to only then tell you it's paid?
LETS BE CLEAR IT IS UNETHICAL TO PROFILE YOU WITHOUT TELLING you FIRST IT IS A PAID APP. NO FREE CORE FUNCTIONS.

PAYMENT NOT OPTIONAL

There is no free version of this app. You have to pay to even get to try it out for longer than the measly 3 day free trial. Not worth even downloading.

Irritating

Constantly prompting for premium is making me consider dumping the app.
I’m evaluating a number off apps, the nagging could rule it out before I have had the chance to test sufficiently. 🤷

Can you make the New Drink menu available for customization or create a favorite menu

This is a very useful tool to get people to think water or beverages of their choice.

Best habit’s app I’ve had

This app makes me feel extra motivated, because the sweet and simple reward of finishing that last cup of water and typing it in is just perfect. It’s almost stress reliving to get it off my daily list and feel accomplished. I’d also really like to add that Hydro Coach is really simple and efficient for my mental health.

Just downloaded and already an improvement from others!

I can’t stand apps that make you subscribe or pay for the core function!!! All the other water reminder apps I have tried make you subscribe to get reminders instead of having you pay for the app outright (I cannot afford another subscription at all, I find the apps that do such things to be quite irritating and with my ADHD the reminders are a MUST) I have not used the app for long but the fact it doesn’t make you pay to use what the app was made for is already a step up! May update the review with a higher or lower star rating depending on how good it is long term but currently a three star for the above reason alone.

AWESOME!!!

I love this app! It is so helpful to remind me to drink water! I enjoy the lifetime rankings and after a couple years, I am nearly at the Whale ranking. It keeps me motivated and is a very well designed app, highly recommend. 😁

Satisfied with app but 1 major issue!

In general the app is very good for tracking how much you drink water! But the reminder system is too weak!

Won’t work with Fitbit

Easy data entry of water fluid intake but won’t update in Fitbit.

The perfect nudges to keep me hydrated!

Drinking enough water has always been a struggle for decades. I usually forget until it’s I’m super thirsty at night, or heads down in a project deprioritizing it, much to the chagrin of my health. Hydro Coach gives the perf reminders through the day. The visual representation in the app makes it feel fun rather than just another chore or a naggy task.

Best water tracker!

This is an amazing app. Really clever as it works out how much you need and sends you notifications when you should drink based on the algorithm. You can also track coffee and alcohol and it will deduct the dehydration effects of these drinks and how much more you need to drink. It is also good at recognising favourite drinks. The design is great too.

Just get it

This is a fantastic app, it’s directly to the point and you can track your months and it’s just easy to use. Highly recommend

Good App but

This app is great, the notifications aren’t too much. However, I think too many things are locked with premium. There are 26 drink options in total but without premium there are only 3. The 3 you have are water, coffee and milk. I personally don’t know a lot of people that will drink milk on its own so I don’t even understand why thats on there let alone a non premium option. I think that just the first section of drinks should be available without premium. That would mean 6 so if you got premium it would still be 20 more options. Just a personal opinion however the rest of this app is great and I understand app developers need to make money somehow.

App fixed

The issue of the app showing a nag screen to upgrade even though I have a subscription has been fixed. Thanks for the prompt attention to this issue. I have changed my rating to five stars. This app really helps me stay hydrated.
