### 1/5 — Immediately deleted

*2024-09-28*

The UI was confusing. The mechanics for selecting how much water you drank or even just setting up your profile was weird. I had the app for 3 minutes and deleted it.

### 2/5 — 1 day behind

*2024-05-09*

I really wanted to use this app because it’s straight-forward and has a widget. The app is 1 day behind and I cannot change the date/time so I’m not using it.

### 1/5 — Purchase for a widget

*2023-09-14*

Need to pay MONTHLY just for a widget. I’d rather just pay a flat fee 🙄

### 1/5 — ???

*2023-03-09*

How DO I USE IT

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-01-26*

Think before you get this game will you use it but if you get it is a amazing game and you have to be 10 and older

### 1/5 — You can’t track water

*2022-09-19*

It doesn’t work. Waste of time, do not download

### 1/5 — App is broken???

*2022-07-31*

I don’t know but I just updated my phone and the widgets all loaded up and I figured I’d give this specific one some time so it can reload. And then I waited half an hour. And it didn’t load. So then I changed the widget from the cute dog to one of the basic ones. Still didn’t work. So then I tried to open the app. Well the app wouldn’t work. Nothing works. “If I could give you a zero, I would. But I can’t. So I give you… A one.”

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2022-03-02*

The widgets don’t work and I can’t get the app to log on the correct day so it says I’m not drinking anything even when I’m tracking cause it won’t let you change the day. I’m very disappointed in this app.

### 1/5 — Not ready for prime time

*2021-11-23*

Fortunately there’s a free trial of 7 days to figure out if you like the app, but buyers beware that you cannot complete the app setup without committing to annual or monthly payment.   Multiple issues noted within a few minutes of downloading and setting up this app with my personal data.  Edit Profile window does not allow user to update  more than one field without exiting and reentering that screen.  The formula for calculating daily Water intake is not apparent but it was close enough for me so I left it alone (it is editable).  However, after installing the widget, my water requirement more than doubled.  Siri does not log the water consumed but does open the app for you to do.  So I’ve uninstalled and will continue my search for a well developed app.

### 1/5 — Lol.

*2021-08-09*

For some reason this app is stuck on yesterday‘s date. By reading the reviews I see I’m not the only one. There is nowhere within the app to fix the date to, this means when you enter today’s water intake it counts for yesterday. This renders the app and widget completely useless. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, I have also shut down my phone and restarted, no fix. I’ve emailed the developers, and hopefully will get a response on how to fix the issue. I’m happy to update my review to 5 stars if this issue will be rectified for us all, otherwise it has potential to be a great app!
