Saturate helps you stay consistent with creatine — the single supplement with the most consistent research behind it, and the easiest one to forget. Every feature, completely free: • Daily dose checker with streak tracking and full history calendar • Loading phase tracking (10g or 20g protocols) with a per-dose checklist • Escalating reminders that follow your actual dosing — not just one alarm you'll swipe away • Hydration logging in oz, with cup-based quick-add • Muscle saturation tracker — a live estimate of where your levels stand, based on what you've actually taken • Supply tracker — know when you're about to run out • Progress photos, stored only on your device — never uploaded anywhere Saturate doesn't guess. It understands creatine-specific protocols: loading vs. maintenance dosing, hydration needs that scale with your phase, and a saturation model that reflects your real dosing history — not just days elapsed. Everything you enter stays on your device. No account. No ads. No data collection. No subscription. No in-app purchase. Saturate is a supplementation-tracking and reminder utility, not a source of medical advice. Consult a physician before starting any supplementation regimen.
