What is Water Intake Tracker?

Water Intake Tracker logs every glass you drink through the day so you stay hydrated. Set a daily goal, tap to add a drink, and the progress bar shows how close you are. Your data stays on your device — nothing is uploaded.

Named vessel buttons — Small Glass (200 mL), Standard Cup (250 mL), and Large Bottle (500 mL) — cover most cup and bottle sizes, and a custom field handles the odd 750 mL bottle or 320 mL can. A weekly chart appears once you have a few days of data so you can spot patterns: high-output days versus deficit days. A celebration toast pops up the first time you hit the goal each day.

How to use

1. Step 1 — Set your daily hydration goal (default is 8 glasses or 2,000 mL).
2. Step 2 — Tap a vessel each time you drink (Small Glass 200 mL, Standard Cup 250 mL, Large Bottle 500 mL) or type a custom amount.
3. Step 3 — Check the progress bar and history log to see how close you are to your goal.

When to use

• Building a hydration habit during the first weeks of a new fitness routine.
• Tracking intake during a hot summer commute or fast-paced shift when you tend to forget to drink.
• Recording fluids during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or recovery after illness when daily targets are higher.

Result

You set a goal of 2,500 mL. After breakfast you tap the 250 mL button, at lunch 500 mL, and by evening you track six more entries to hit your target.

FAQ

How much water should I aim for daily?

Common guidance is around 2.5 L for women and 3 L for men from all fluids, including food and tea. Hot weather, exercise, pregnancy, and breastfeeding raise the number. Use 2 L as a default starting point and adjust based on thirst and urine colour.

Does coffee or tea count?

Yes, and the tracker now applies a hydration factor for non-water drinks: coffee counts at 80%, tea and juice at 90%, milk at 87%, and plain water at 100%. Pick the beverage type before logging, and the daily total reflects the effective hydration rather than the raw cup size.

Where is the data stored?

Today's entries and the rolling 30-day history sit in your device's local storage. Nothing syncs to a server. Clearing site data or switching devices wipes the history, so export to CSV if you want long-term records.

Can I drink too much water in a day?

Yes — drinking several litres in a short window can dilute blood sodium (hyponatraemia), especially during endurance events. Spread intake across the day rather than chugging late, and don't push above 4 L without medical advice.

Why does my goal reset every morning?

Hydration resets daily because the body uses what it drinks rather than banking it. The tracker rolls over at local midnight, archives yesterday's total in the weekly chart, and starts a fresh count toward your daily target.
