WaterTracker makes it easy to not only track the amount of water you've had each day, but also to set targets, see statistics, and more. And best of all, it is completely free! No in-app purchases, no subscriptions - ever! Featuring an Apple Watch app, home and lock screen widgets, Shortcuts capability, Control Centre widgets, and more, WaterTracker is your one stop-shop for keeping track of your water. Set your target, and start logging today. With WaterTracker you can create presets - a set amount with its own name, icon, colour, and unit - so that you can easily log that morning glass of water, or that bottle after your run. It also connects to Apple Health, and can read your water intake from other apps, and can write to Apple Health as well. You can easily export your water, target, and preset data in CSV format, or to a PDF in the form of reports, showing your weekly, monthly, or all-time statistics. Please contact Support@LifeTracker.Studio with any concerns, bugs, issues, or suggestions, or visit LifeTracker.Studio for more information on WaterTracker or any of our other apps. Happy Tracking!

Drink more water, without being nagged by ads. BEwater is a hydration tracker with three things most water apps don't have: it is genuinely ad-free, it lives on your Apple Watch, and your friends can nudge you when you forget. A buddy that reacts to you Your water level fills a fishbowl where a little companion swims. Cats, dogs, otters, seals, dolphins, turtles, anglerfish, jellyfish, penguins and more to collect. Customize your cat or dog: breed, fur colour, pattern and accessories. Apple Watch, done properly A real Watch app, free: log a glass in one tap, see your progress in a complication, and everything syncs back to your iPhone. Add a Pro theme and the living fishbowl with your mascot comes to your wrist too. Widgets & Siri Add water from the home screen widget without opening the app. Or just ask Siri. Reminders that respect you Gentle, schedulable reminders. Tap "I drank it" straight from the notification โ€” the bar fills without opening the app. Not now? Snooze it.
