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
So disappointed
I had a great experience with my first Larq. I then lost that Larq after having a 124 day streak. It was strangely satisfying and motivating to see how long I could keep the streak going.
I bought another one (unfortunately it was a long wait) and then the 2nd Larq has been nothing but a disappointment.
Often the amount I drink doesn’t show up and my streak is either 6, 7 or 8 days. I did all of the self help features and keep reaching out. It has been over 2 weeks and I get emails saying they are working on it! Really? I think they should send me a new one.

Hydration Tracking Doesn’t Work
Do not buy this water bottle if you want for anything other than the filtering ability. The hydration tracking will never accurately work. They haven’t figured that out yet, but they’ve pushed it to the market. I’ve bought two of these bottles and have had 4 different lids. Only one was able to track accurately, but the lids closing mechanism is so flimsy that eventually it broke and I was right back to no tracking capabilities

Needs More
Needs a app for Apple Watch or custom watch face that’s shows water consumption. Also needs a Widget for iOS for quick water checks without opening app
Please make a widget!
I’ve absolutely been loving my water bottle and being able to track my intake in the app. I would absolutely love if the app could have a widget so I can see on my Home Screen where I’m at for the day
App freezes
Brand new and installed the app, but it hangs and freezes. I won't be using the app. Hopefully the water bottle is better quality then the app.
3 Years later, still no widgets..
The main reason I got this bottle was for live widgets on how much I am drinking, without opening an app… 3 years after promising this Larq has done nothing. They’ve used the money and time for celebrity endorsed ads, target collabs, and very bad ai video ads. The app still does not have widgets (which are very easy to implement). They also have not added a form of dark mode, so you have to open their blindingly bright app multiple times a day to track your water.. For this reason my bottle is dead and used as a non smart bottle most of the time. The company cares more about a quick profit than making a proper product and fulfilling their kickstarter promises.

Doesn’t accurately track water
I bought this bottle because it was one of the best at tracking water. Well, it certainly doesn’t track accurately. I have the app open and the bottle next to my phone. I’ll drink from my bottle and nothing happens. I’ll take another sip and nothing. The bottle lights up but still nothing. I’ll take another sip and then it registers that I drank less than an ounce of water. That’s certainly not accurate. For the price of this bottle, I expect a little bit more.

No Apple Watch App
I chose to purchase a Larq bottle to replace an App I have been using… But it is missing the Apple Watch companion.
Would be nice to have.

Dark mode
The white interface is blinding
Room to improve
The bottle is good, but I’m not sure how well or accurate the tracking is working. I feel it’s underestimating for me or missing readings. I also think the app could be better. My battery died on my bottle and I never got any notification it was even low. When I replace the filter it’s not resetting in the app either
