See how much is left to reach your daily water goal. Sipli makes logging a drink quick and your progress easy to read. A BOTTLE THAT FOLLOWS YOUR DAY The Home bottle starts full and drains as you log drinks. Its percentage shows how much of your daily goal is left. Tilt your phone and the water moves with it, then settles. With Reduce Motion enabled, the level updates without the motion effects. A gentle welcome when you return and a little encouragement after logging help you keep going. MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Open your iPhone Duo and Sipli fills the inner display, with Home, Insights, and Diary split around the fold. Close it and your bottle stays on the cover screen. Sipli works in every orientation, with two-column layouts in landscape. QUICK TO LOG, EASY TO CORRECT • Add water with quick amounts or choose your own serving size. • Set a daily goal and use reminders that fit your waking hours. • Keep a drink diary, add a missed entry, or edit and delete a previous log. • Check daily progress, streaks, a monthly heatmap, and 7- and 30-day trends. • Log water from Apple Watch and keep progress nearby with Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets. SMALL REASONS TO KEEP GOING Build a streak, take on weekly quests, and discover badges in the Trophy Room. Share a daily summary, a week of progress, or a beautifully illustrated card for a badge you've earned. Ask Siri to log a drink by name and amount, like “Log 350 ml of latte in Sipli”, and hear how much is left without opening the app. FREE TO START Basic water logging, custom daily goals, diary history, and standard reminders are available without a subscription.
