Launching soon!
Interesting - you became an accountability water drinking partner for your friend. Love it, can you elaborate on "Get smart reminders (e.g., every 90 minutes, starting from the last time you logged)" - are these sort of notifications we get from social media platforms?

@viorica_vanica Thanks, Veronica. About the "smart" reminders: Basically, you set how often you want to get reminded to drink something (e.g., every 90 minutes), and Fluid will schedule iOS notifications to remind you. It also reschedules them automatically any time you log something, so it's not a rigid schedule. It will also cease once you hit your goal for the day. And you can, of course, choose the start and end times (so you don't get notifications in the middle of the night).
@ruchira_08 Hey Ruchira, many thanks for the feedback! Really excited that Fluid helps you.
@christianheine do you think that we all need application to get know if we drunk enought or too much water? When you got that idea and during development - you thought about people with kidney problems or on diet, or just everyone?
@jan_mazurek Hey Jan! Initially, it was just a weird idea between friends and eventually turned into what Fluid is now. Whether it helps someone or not probably depends. It certainly helped me - especially knowing that I told others about my habit. Also, some early users left very positive feedback. Should everyone use an app like this? Probably not. But can it help some people? I think yes.
I'm always drinking water, but trying to convince my team to do the same. This app could totally help with that. Great work.
Hey everyone,
This is Christian, the maker of Fluid.
Have you ever struggled to drink enough water? For me, making sure that I drink enough each day has become a real game-changer. However, it's hard to stay motivated just by yourself. And with no one around (WFH), it's even harder. This is why I created Fluid.
So what can it do? You can...
• Freely set your daily goal (metric or imperial)
• Get a recommended daily goal based on your activity and weight
• Quickly track what you drink (either with one of three quick buttons or completely freely when tapping on the daily water level)
• See your log streak (how many days in a row you logged)
• See your history in a weekly view (to spot trends)
• Edit your history (for control freaks like me who forgot to log something)
• Get motivated by Drop (who will be delighted each time you log something)
• Get smart reminders (e.g., every 90 minutes, starting from the last time you logged)
And here is what sets Fluid apart:
• You can connect with your friends and see if you each reached your goal for the day
Oh, and it's currently 100% free.
Fluid is currently only available for iPhone and focused on the essentials. Depending on the reception, I plan to add additional features - like goal streaks, sending your friends cheers, or launching on Android.
Enjoy and let me know what you think!
And, of course, stay hydrated!
Cool product. @javier_sanchez_mejorada1 at first this reminded me of a different water project we worked on
@javier_sanchez_mejorada1 @devin_alldrit1 Many thanks! Which other project were you working on?
@javier_sanchez_mejorada1 @christianheine It was a school project for monitoring home water use. This product is quite different, I love the idea of encouraging people to be more healthy
@javier_sanchez_mejorada1 @devin_alldrit1 Indeed different. But sounds really cool. I think just the act of tracking can have a big impact on how people use something (like water or electricity).
Fluid is the coolest app built on keeping check on our health. What seems more useful to me checking on my kids and keeping a record of their intake.
@chambersearnest Thanks a lot! Strangely, launching it feels much harder than building it ;)
