New Water Screen

Appreciate the 2.12 update, but would like to see a "Log It" button on the water screen. Also do not like to have to hit the plus button to log in water amounts throughout the day.

Agreed, this is horrible UI  . . click to a blank screen? then ''+" to add? I like that you can see your water intake in the past, but to add water now you have to click from the main dahsboard to 'water', then today's water, then the '+', that's 3 clicks! Why else would you click on today's water > unless you were adding?

 

Also, preference section during set up should allow you to pick units you prefer to log water in. ..most people it's oz, some pints etc. . .

 

Combine slider with some pre-determined popular options such as 16oz, 25oz etc. . common oz as buttons on the top, and the slider below. .

 

Please don't make me 'add' water twice. . .such a waste of clicks!!

I prefer the previous UI for logging water. Simple and easy. Also, this may sound silly, but I also find that the promt that says "A little thristy over here" is kind of a downer when everything else seems so positive. Apparently I'm highly motivated by green happy faces and cheers 😄

I agree, I like the previous water recording screens in the app. It actually took me a minute or 2 to figure out how to do it after the update and its got 1 more tap to get there too.

I agree with all of the above - please change it back to the "one add click" UI.

Having to click the Water button, then another button, then add the water... then to add another amount of water in the same session I have to click the "+" button again?

Ridiculous!!

 

It was perfectly fine the way it was before. You don't need to make the UI 'pretty' - please change it back.

I think this is a great idea. It will be easier for the app users to log their water if a "log it" button was available on the app. Having that instead of the + sign will be faster. This is currently possible on the online dashboard. Hopefully this will be implemented on the app in the nearest future! Thanks for the suggestion.

I would like to be able to add water intake (as well as weight and perhaps blood pressure) as an 'app' on the Fitbit 4. It can sync with the Fitbit app on my phone afterwards.
