This feature would be much more usable if the amounts were 8, 12, 16 or even 4, 8, 12 as you can quickly enter a greater variety of fluid intakes quickly. The 24 oz. is too large for the average input and could easily be achieved by hitting 12 twice.

I'm just here to sign the petition. At the very least let us modify the default sizes. I have a 20oz water bottle at work that I use to get 80% of my water intake for the day. I know it is a first world problem but it is annoying.

I would really like to see an option to customize the Quick Add water amounts like I've seen in other tracker apps (eg Hydro Coach). It would make tracking much less of a chore. 

Someone here mentioned adding a widget for water tracking, which I think is a great idea! (I think it would help me not be distracted by my phone all day...)

Can't understand that this is not an option.

Every glass / cup has a different size. A lot of other apps do  this ...

My water bottle is 32 oz, and I would love to be able to replace the 24oz quick add option with my larger bottle size!

I use a 20oz water bottle and I have to manually enter my water each time, because quick add does not list 20oz. It would be nice to customize the quick add feature to what sizes I usually use. This is VERY frustrating!

I often drink 1liter or 500ml bottles. Other volumes can be manually added. I'd prefer most used amounts to be 1 tap and go.

I would love to be able to customise the quick add water button amounts to better represent the volumes of my glasses and water bottles (eg. 375ml). I hope to see this change in a future update.

I think this idea would be real helpful. My water bottle is 725ml. Not too far off the quick add, I know. But I'm a little OCD about numbers so if y'all could reprogram it so we can customise quick add water amounts that'd be great. Thanks in advance for taking the time

Great idea! Normally I drink water in 200ml, 350ml or 400ml cups and I have to manually add the amount!

YES!  I've only just joined FitBit but this was an immediate issue.  I'm posting this on 6-7-17.  Was this issue ever resolved?

Come on FitBit!  This seems to have been an issue for 2 years now.  This needs to be addressed!

Nope. It has not been resolved.

standard half litre US water bottles are marked as 16.9 oz, not 16 oz--I'd like to be able to click on the water bottle and get that amount

C-Fit, since you're new, you've not yet figured out Fitbit pays little to no attention to customer input. I've given up on expecting Fitbit to add any features users ask for, or fix any bugs users identify. There are requests that have thousands of votes across multiple Fitbit device forums, that don't even get responses, much less action. If, by chance, something does show up, it'll be a happy surprise.

I really would like customizable quantities for the three water quick-adds. Another suggestion would be to allow tracking of water, tea, coffee, or other.

Really disappointing how this is an issue that's been suggested for the last two years and there's been nothing in the way of a fix or even a response from Fitbit. This kind of apathy is what makes customers start looking to see what the competition offers, to see if they might get a better user experience by switching to another product. 

 

We're not asking for much, just a better, more efficient way to track our basic water intake! If the "quick add" isn't quick, it's useless wasted space on my screen, still forcing me to take another 3 extra steps AT LEAST to log. If you're going to make it difficult, the chances of me using it decrease. Every time I see the "quick add" it is a quick reminder how Fitbit refuses to even acknowledge a blatant flaw in a feature that people have been asking for a change in for YEARS. Do you really want us seeing that and being reminded each time we drink water that you can't be bothered to pay attention to even the tiniest of issues for your user base?

To me, it's become worse than apathy.  Fitbit seems to have an active disdain for its customers. 

 

But I agree with your point.  I can only use the "Quick Add" feature perhaps one in 10 times I add water intake. It's close to useless.

We are in year three of this feature request 🙂

 

I have my fitbit just for 2 weeks and was looking for this feature. In The Netherlands the Dopper is a verry popular water bottle and it is 450 ml. A standard size of bottles sold in shops is 330 ml. It would be great if you would ad the 330 as a standard or make the values customizeble..

I would like to see the water quick add options to be customisable too.

I would really like to see this feature!

Another vote to add custom water size to quick select, or at bare minimum add 355ml which is the amount in a can of seltzer. This is a common water intake for myself and many others I suspect.

I hate typing in 16.9 oz, but I'm not willing to forfeit .9 oz of each bottle I drink for the convenience of the 16 oz quick add button. Please let us customize our sizes!

Hello everyone. I suggested it but I don't work for Fitbit or the developer. Replying to me probably won't help I suggest you post your own suggestion and then the number of people asking will increase.

Add cusomizable quick add water buttons. Everybody wants them. Unbelievable. And while youre at it.. add them to your trackers that can handle it (blaze and charge 2) I really hate fiddling with my phone to add water.
