Water tracker Waterllama 4+

Waterllama is by far the best and most effective drinking app for me. At first, when I saw it on my Apple Watch App Store, it was part of the great complications section, and I thought, oh, that’s a cool app. Then, I saw it on the App Store homepage, and I ignored it until I finally thought that this app was cute, and has high ratings. The only suggestion I have is to make an option to sign up through email/password or through a service like Google. I understand if you, the developers, would like to keep the iCloud option because I know that those email/account services don’t really work the best with Apple Health. The reason I suggested that is that my Apple Watch uses a different account than my iPad, and I don’t always have access to my iPad. I could just add water whenever and wherever I want on my Apple Watch, but (obviously) doesn’t sync with the iPad. That’s about the only reason that is keeping me from buying the Premium version of the app because I don’t want to make two payments that are on separate accounts that don’t cooperate. The $8-lifetime fee is also about the best I’ve found for an app with in-app purchases like this because most are like “PAY $11 PER MONTH ($132 per year! and more plus taxes). The developers seem to respond to most of the reviews, so I hope this gets seen and added in one of the future updates. If this was fixed, I would ABSOLUTELY support the app and small team behind the scenes. Thanks!! 💦

I never really paid any attention to how much water I was drinking and the negative effects of dehydration. It was brought up at almost every visit with my doctor. I acknowledged it but never took the step to see if I was getting enough hydration without having to give it any thought or attention. I found out using a body
composition scale that on a regular basis I was measuring below the minimum daily requirements and was effectively dehydrated on the regular. I looked at apps to help keep me on track and come to this one because of its simplicity and the way that it positively encourages you with these cute little characters. They make me laugh in a way that traditional feedback does not. The results almost immediately were amazing. My daily intake has almost doubled.

The other major reason I chose this app is that I couldn’t believe, given all that’s been happening in their country, the creators continue to produce and manage a tool that is meant to help others. I can’t ignore the fact that their creativity and desire to help others breaks through what has to devastating to them on a personal level. If it helps them to continue to thrive and survive, using the app is a simple way to support them. While you’re at it, and if you have the means, show your support by making a contribution to keep them going.

Wooow, thanks a lot for such a warm message and supporting us during these times of struggle! 🇺🇦

Your support and kind words mean the world to our small but passionate team and help us stay strong and keep going despite everything that's happening now 💙 💛

We’re super pleased that Waterllama brings you nothing but joy and helps you stay motivated to improve your hydration 🤗

Love to hear how you enjoy the design & simplicity. That was our main goal for Waterllama! So it helps you stay hydrated & happy in a simple and fun manner! 💦🦙

Do hope our app will further accompany you on the road to healthy hydration!

We’ll do our best to continue building even more awesome features for you to enjoy 💛

Stay hydrated & happy! 💦

First of all, I like how many reviews the developers respond to. That means they are in touch with their customers. Additionally, the latest update was only days ago from me investigating the app, so that, too, is a good sign.

Secondly, however, I felt seduced to give this a 5-star rating a little too soon just to get a benefit. But so be it, this seems like a good app but I do wish there were a Q&A place one could easily find on their website or in the app itself, and perhaps there is but it’s hard for me to navigate this app. I wasn’t even sure what I was doing when I first pressed the + button to add water; there was no tutorial, which would’ve been nice. Since you don’t sign in with an account on the free version, I am not sure if the data will sync from my iPad to my iPhone and vice versa, but it does sync to the Apple Watch. I’m almost wondering if I can take it off the iPhone and iPad, and just leave it on my watch alone. Those are things that would be nice to have in a Q&A.

This is my first day using the app and I think that I should measure my water bottle and figure out how much I’m actually drinking because that’s what helps give more accurate results in the app. (I like my stainless steel bottle but having a glass bottle might be easier to see your progress and record it.)

Yup, we read every review and try to reply to as many as possible 😌 and we definitely reply to any message where someone needs a hand with anything! There's a small Q&A section you can find in the app as well. But if you don't find any particular answer, just reach us at hello@waterllama.com and we'll be there to help!
Cross-sync between devices is one of the features that can be enabled in the app. A standalone Apple Watch app is something that we have on our roadmap. Currently it needs an iPhone to operate.

Thanks a lot for your review! There are so many fun features we plan to build next! We're a small indie team and it really makes our day to keep going!

Stay hydrated & happy! 💦🦙☺️
