Great bottle lousy app
OK, so the water bottle is awesome and you should definitely get yourself one of those but the app I mean give me a break. You need to set up an account with your email and data in the cloud to use the app plus the app requires a constant Internet cellular connection to even open. What’s up with that just doesn’t make any sense. They should just have an app that works with the water bottle without requiring an account and without requiring a data connection. It should work on an iPod touch if anybody still has one of those or an older phone if you don’t have your data and your cellular plan active, which is my case anyways but I love the water bottle

Best water ever
No iPhone Widget ⁉️
PureVis 2 Hardware: 5/5 | Software: 2/5
Upgraded to the PureVis 2 after using the original PureVis since 2019, and the bottle itself is a definite improvement. However, I’m shocked by the lack of basic tech integrations. At this price point, there's no excuse for not having iOS widgets or an Apple Watch app. LARQ clearly has the revenue to pay developers to build these features—come on guys, update the app!

Expensive bottle, app that doesn’t track anything
I bought this bottle specifically to track my water intake, but the app never logged a single sip even after I finished the whole bottle — the only things that actually work are the battery indicator and the UV self-cleaning status. For the price, that’s a huge disappointment: a “smart” bottle whose core feature simply doesn’t work.

App issues defeat the purpose of the bottle
The app frequently fails to sync with my LARQ bottle, so my water consumption is not being updated accurately. I’m also unable to complete a filter change in the app. I can go through the entire process, but when I reach the final page and tap “Finish,” nothing happens, so the filter change never registers.
Considering how much this bottle costs, I can’t justify the price when two of its main features, hydration tracking and filter tracking, are not working properly. At that point, it defeats much of the purpose of paying a premium for a smart bottle. I hope these issues are addressed soon.

Broken app when trying to log sth
Irritating!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bottle is great, app is very frustrating
I had a bottle from this companies original kickstarter and it served me well for many years. It finally quit on me recently and I was excited about the upgrades with the new version, including the app.
Unfortunately, a day in, the app has already presented a slew of issues. Most frustrating is that it refuses to record a new filter installation—I can make it through all the steps of this until the end, where the “finish” button is entirely unresponsive. Went to submit feedback on this within the app and lo and behold, those pages are unresponsive as well. A real bummer, as tracking filter replacements is a main facet of what I would have used this limited app for.

Can’t not delete manual entry
The app has a feature that allows you to manually add drinks from other sources, but I was only able to add entries and couldn’t delete them. While trying to troubleshoot the issue, the app duplicated several of my entries, leaving me with multiple records that I couldn’t remove. This completely threw off my daily hydration total. It’s frustrating to have a manual-entry feature without a reliable way to edit or delete incorrect or duplicated entries. Hopefully this gets fixed in a future update.

Update has broken app
App was working okay until yesterday’s update. It was a bit buggy in tracking water drunk from bottle, but easy to add drinks manually. Now even that is really buggy. I wish developers would properly test “improvements” before they push them out!
Buggy
The developers don’t seem to care about the iOS app. I’ve been using it for 6 months, everything was fine and then suddenly the app started deleting hydration data. I’ve emailed the developer and have also reached out through the app, but haven’t had any response in 5 days….even though the auto generated email said someone should be in touch within 24 hours

What is the app for if not to send you notifications to drink?
I thought this was going to send me phone notifications on how much I have still left to drink to reach my goals each day. This is a missed opportunity.
Love the bottle, hate the app
The app needs a stronger sensor. Sometimes the bottle doesn’t light up after a sip and I have to stare at the app to make sure my sip was recorded. Other times it doesn’t update at all, and then 20 mins to hours later the data bum rushes my history. Sometimes it reflects I’ve drank more than the bottle physically can hold. It would be better if the app shows a real time level of how much water is in it at the time of filling. Another issue is the sensor definitely struggles keeping up within a car. For rideshare drivers like me all the stop and go is really confusing on the sensor so I won’t deduct points for that because of my business but I hate babysitting the sensor to make sure it updates.
Lastly I need to be able to change the manual Oz’s selections. Sometimes I need to select 10oz more than I need to select 12oz or 8oz. I NEVER select 23oz or 26oz, when I’m driving I shouldn’t have to type that in because the developers didn’t think to allow us to edit our frequent choices. Please change this!
Other than that, having this bottle makes drinking water and keeping up with my daily hydration fun for me. I’m optimizing my prenatal health and my wife and I are trying for children soon and this is one of the many tools supporting my reproductive health journey.

Great bottle - needs 2 things tho
Love the bottle, UV light, filter and tracking! Tho I keep getting notices to have Larq running in the background and cap shows it’s offline.
Also electronic uv cap should have built in rubber cover for charging port to avoid water getting into it!

Hydration Tracking Not Working
The entire reason I bought this water bottle and it doesn’t work. I’ve tried every troubleshooting option multiple times. So disappointing.
LARQ app
I’m having difficulty with the app- it’s connected and I can’t seem to put it to good use - 🤪🤪
‘Add a drink’ button
I drink a lot of smoothies and I always put it under ‘Juice’ but it’s technically not juice. I think you should add an option for ‘other’ or ‘Smoothie’. Otherwise I love the app and it is very user friendly.
Good app
Good app but m bottle doesn’t always connect to it to actually show how much I’ve drank in a day. Wish there was a widget as well.
False Marketing
Where are the notifications to my phone? I bought this because it said it would send notifications to my phone to drink water, it does no such thing. However it doesn’t seem to have an issue to send me a push notification to order a new filter. Odd.
Reminders for drinking water
PLEASE add app reminders for water. Not a flashing bottle that does nothing when I’m not near it. I need notifications on the app to keep track and be reminded. I’ve seen posts on multiple socials sites about this.
Annoying notification
Every time I force quit the app, I get a notification that says the app needs to be in the background. It’s really annoying, other water tracking apps don’t need to be running in the background. Other than that it’s pretty good and works like it should
