Hidrate Spark Water Bottle

App doesn't start logging water until opened in the morning. Everything I drank before I opened the app was lost. It's also not accurate enough during the day and will just decide that it doesn't want to log certain amounts. I'll drink an entire bottle and the oz it shows don't reflect the capacity of the bottle. It's a neat idea, but needs a lot of work before it's actually worth the money I paid for the bottle...

I received this as a gift from Mr daughter. I really was excited to use it to help me track my water intake, great idea. The problem I was having it would not syncing to my android phone. We changed the batteries and still would not work. I didn't give up tried everything so for about a month of trying off & on it finally was able to find the bottle. Unfortunately now it's not tracking the water accurately sometimes it does & and then sometimes it doesn't. The whole point of getting this great bottle was to keep me drinking enough water a day, but if it's not working half the time what's the point. Please fit this issue and it will be a great product!

I haven't had any issues with the app syncing or not tracking my water. It always catches up once I open the app. The only issue I had was that it seemed like it lost my progress for the day but after I closed the app and reopened it everything was fine. The bottle stores a few days worth of progress so it's always updated the app for me. Works great.

I've been using it for about two months now, and love the bottle itself and the app does what I need it to. I wish the water bottle sync'd to the app without having to open the apo, but opening the app once every day or two for it to sync is way easier than trying to record everything and I assume it's done for better battery life on the bottle (haven't had to change the batteries yet!). An idea for the future: if the app can detect the bottles' battery life, we should be able to auto-order more batteries from you guys (for a small fee).

The bottle is excellent, the material is sturdy and design of bottle is outstanding. But the main issue is the app. Half of the time it just does syncs. I have tried changing batteries and all the steps customer care asked me to do but still no luck. I have to restart bluetooth on/off, but I restart the phone and sometimes reinstall the app to be able to connect. App functionality and synch needs serious rework.

Great idea behind this. I definitely wasn't drinking enough water and this has helped. I give it two stars as I cannot consistently sync to my phone. It has become so frustrating that I barely use the app. Someone else on here said it, when you do connect, you are so afraid to close the app or separate phone from bottle for fear it won't sync again. Update this and then 5 stars all the way.

Love the bottle, the app does not track or read the information correctly. It takes forever to connect and sync, then it deleted data off the app all the time. It's not super reliable for tracking water intake. Basically I just drink when the bottle flashes, and hope it tracks - which is maybe 50% of the time.

The idea of having this water bottle is great but when it comes to end of my night and I already drank most of my goal, I am drinking water really fast to catch up. And it is not helpful when I have drank 48 ounces and the app says I drank less than that. Needs fixing. How is it when someone drinks 48 ounces and they have to drink more than what is needed to catch up. And it seems like everyday I have to repair my waterbottle.

I am fed up with this app. What a waste of money this water bottle has become. I have to open the app everyday so it even detects that i drank water. And when it does detect it most of the time it is wrong! Today it just told me i drank a bottle of water which is correct and now it says i only drank 1/2 a bottle. Im so dissapointed with this app and water bottle.

I love this app, and love the bottle. I'm wrapped that I was able to have my bottle shipped to me here in Australia. The app is pretty good, it looks great, it has all the information I want, and it even links to my Fitbit. The only issue I have is like the others, I would love to see it update in the background, rather than to have to open the app every time I have a drink. If the Devs could add the feature to sync in the background, then I would be grateful, and I think most of the others would be as well. I've given 5 stars as the app does everything it is supposed to do without error. The lack of background syncing isn't a bug, but a feature request. Another feature I would love to see is to add the option for injury recovery, instead of just having activities.

This app needs a serious update. The syncing is a major issue. Half the time it will not connect to my bottle and then when it randomly does, I can't close the app in fear of it not finding my bottle again. This is your core functionality. Fix this for a higher rating.

Update: downgrade from 4 to 2 stars. The app really doesn't work that well after all. Inconsistent sync and problems recording data unless I open the app the same day. Disappointing. ... [Previous review:] The app works well enough. Just not sure water intake tracking is worth a standalone app. But a good start toward potential integration with other fitness concepts.

App is garbage. Doesn't sync consistently or have bottle give indicators for drinking water when you're behind. How can an app be this bad for something so simple in 2018?

The fact that the app needs to be open to synch is ridiculous. And if you go more than a day without synching, goodbye data! They say it stores two days worth but that's simply not the case. Also app is bugged, it didn't even total up all my logs- for example i had over 80 oz logged and showing in the app; but the total was only showing 6????. It should track and synch data without the app being open. Neat idea, but you need the dev team to step it up and fix the app.

App needs help. Bought this bottle because of the ability to sync it to my phone. So far it's hit or miss. Not really worth what I paid for it.

I absolutely love this app and the water bottle. Tracking my water intake is so much easier and I feel so much better drinking the water I need. Although there are a few glitches in the app, the water bottle is so worth it.

Great concept, a little glitchy. When I open it sometimes it opens to the current day other times it opens to the previous. Typically fixes its self when I click to a different screen then back.

Syncing issues. I've tried recalibrating a few times but it still thinks I'm drinking more than I am and it doesn't update properly.

This app has a difficult time synching data or it loses data. It's not as friendly on Android as it is on Apple. Also I'm on Saturday, I notice I have to flip back to Fri and back to Saturday for information.

App does not update regularly. Often times it tells me I've drank much less than I really have. Does not update fitbit correctly. Basically waste of money so far.

The app doesn't keep an accurate count and everytime I refill my bottle it starts over. Plus my bottle is starting to peel.

I have not had some of the problems that the other reviews show. It has been quite accurate and I am pleased. However, it does require the app being open to work properly.

I cannot get it to pair with my phone . Keeps saying rejected by bottle. Ugh . frustrating

I love this but wish I didn't have to go into the app to sync my bottle every time I refill it.

Sync function needs to improve. It should be able to sync in the background without needing to open app. Also the ability to sync to fitbit needs major work. Not all the data carries over.

I love this the this bottle my sister saw it and bought it for me because I don't usually drink enough water and she knows that and with the bottle and with the app it helps keep to keep helps me on track ????

You have to open the app in the morning before it will log anything. That I do not like as I didn't use the app for days, and drank tons of water, but it says 0. I also linked it to fit bit, but it doesn't upload my totals to fitbit.

Constant syncing issues and inaccurate reading levels. Not worth the money.

Amazing you need to make sure to read the directions carefully for the water bottle to calibrate etc. If you do not do that then it will be off and will not work. Great app and water bottle.

This app does not work properly. Please fix the app. It does not link up to the phone. I have to Uninstall to reinstall and it still doesn't work.

Despite other people's experiences, mine has been great. Love the app, no problem syncing at all. I have a Samsung 7. Works fine.

Sync issues constantly since I got it

The app doesn't work anymore I just have an empty screen and no report. It doesn't even connect with my bottle

Since the update it doesn't log any water. Pretty sure the date is wrong as it's telling me were on Thursday and it's Saturday. Please fix.

I really do love it! The only reason I don't give it a 5 star is because some times the app doesn't update.

Pro: keeps track of my fluid intake in small increments. Con: I need to frequently resync bluetooth.

Always having to force close the app to get it to sync properly. Needs updated so it syncs properly

Needs some work but does the job! Great for a fairly new app in progress.

It syncs with the bottle when you open the app and it also syncs ro the fitbit app. Works great!

Great reminder to keep me on track with water intake and integrates with other fitness apps!
