WaterDone is the lightest way to keep sipping before you get thirsty. Had a sip? Tap once. That's the whole app. No amounts to type. No daily target. The goal is a rhythm: another sip within the interval you choose. A little drop dries out as time passes and fills up when you drink, and a gentle word tells you how you're doing β€” "Hydrated", "Time for a sip". β€’ One tap from your Lock Screen or Home Screen widget, without opening the app β€’ See when your next sip is due, right on the home screen β€’ A gentle nudge before you dry out. You pick the interval (2–4 hours) and the hours it can reach you. Works fine with notifications off, too β€’ Tapped by mistake? Undo in one tap β€’ Just ate? Tap β€œI just ate” and your next nudge moves later (it isn’t counted as a sip) β€’ Optionally get one gentle cue after a workout β€’ Run β€œAfter my bath” in Shortcuts to log one sip without opening the app β€’ A streak and a simple calendar of every sip β€’ Made for iPhone Duo's larger display, too β€’ No account. Water records and settings are stored on your device. If you turn on Hot Days, your approximate location is sent to a weather service WaterDone Pro (auto-renewable subscription) β€’ Log β€œI had a sip” from Apple Watch, with today’s count and next suggested time on complications β€’ On hot days, optionally make your usual reminders arrive a little earlier using today’s forecast Logging, rhythm reminders, β€œI just ate”, widgets, and writing to Apple Health remain free. If Pro expires, your existing records are not deleted or hidden. Pro is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewable subscription. A free trial appears only when the App Store reports that you are eligible. The subscription renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and you can manage or cancel it anytime in your Apple Account settings.

WaterDone is not medical advice and does not calculate how much water you need.
