Water tile: Log water directly from the dashboard

You should be able to quickly add water on the front page rather than always having to click through and scroll down the page behind.

 

Lines and fonts are too large. The orange is more red than orange which does not mean that at a glance you can see how you are doing. It is harder to find the button to quickly access adding food as the options go over other boxes and only appear when you hover. The look and feel is way too basic compared to the old dashboard. I think much of this and other points has been said, but basically the look and feel is now very offputting.

I think there should be a way to add consumed water directly from the water tile on the dashboard, instead of having to click through log, since I have the dashboard open 95% of the time.

In units the user wants. What is a cup, for instance? I'd prefer to enter in milliliters.

Yes, the adding water water thing has always annoyed me - it could be so much simpler. I've stopped bothering now - unfortunately

Yes, please add an Add Water to the tile!  I've only been using this for 2 days and already want it.

HERE !    HERE !

 

You guys out there in Techland have simply got to

make it easier for us to add water consumption.  C'mon !!

 

Please just put an omnipresent button that is OMNIPRESENT

that says "Click here if you just drank water"  so we can click

that 88 times per day from anywhere on the site.  You can even

install that same button on my hard drive if you want, so it is present

even when I'm on Ebay or Youtube or Amazondot com.    LOL

 

I, too, have stopped logging in my consumption of water.

It's just a bit tooooooo clumsy and time consuming.  Please fix this.

 

Thank you.

I agree with this.  It is annoying to have to navigate away from the dashboard to add water consumption.

Most definitely want this! I just setup my fitbit today and that's already the most frustrating thing! We should be able to add water consumption with a click from the dashboard 🙂

 

I love the way it works on the iOS app!

i would like to see a way I can just CLICK on the water glass and have it log (and fill it) instead of clicking to put in oz.  I would click on a glass everytime I drank as opposed to remembering at the end of the day -- which is when I can get on my laptop.

i totally agree.  I should be able to click on one of those empty cups on the dashboard on my laptop and it fills.  Also should be able to set a preference for the size of those cups.  (I am happy with an 8 ounce cup but it seems others want different sizes).

... for instance, on the Water tile, can you add the capability to log a water consumption amount?

I would like to be able to quickly add water consumed directly on the online dashboard. Right now, we have to go to the water widget, click on "See More", scroll to the bottom, then add water.

Couldnt agree more. I likely wont go into the log feature to add my water intake as I am a new mom and havent got the time. If there was a way to click to add water I would use it and it would motivate me to drink more water. PLEASE add this soon (it would be very helpful).

Please bring back the body icon on the dashboard for water. I don't like the graph. Or at least let us choose which one we prefer

@RosK This is a great idea. I like the idea of streamlining the water-logging process by being able to log water straight from your Fitbit.com dashboard.

Thanks for posting, I'llbe sure to relay your request onto the rest of the team to review further!

I would like to be able to click on the glasses drunk tile on the dashboard and log them there.
