Additional Tracker Features
Just ticking off every day isn’t very exciting, even if the interface is visually appealing.
After conducting 50+ user interviews (in total) – deep, one-on-one conversations – I realized one very important thing: all people who care – love data, statistics, numbers, and it doesn’t matter what app it is, or even if it’s an app at all.
Using this knowledge, I built a stats flow with charts for the days of the week – for free-tier users, and months and years – for premium-tier users.
Tell me, isn’t it exciting, if you’ve been tracking – to peek how it was months ago / half a year / a year ago? –
OH YES!
Besides that, on the same tab, you can see a full list with a specific drink or just water, including amount and time – edit any entry, and even add a drink if it’s already been logged here.
In the calendar, the user can even have a bit of fun, thanks to a small reward system, like in Duolingo, but only if they log their drinks daily.
For each day, you can see an approximate intake level and dive into a specific day to explore it in more detail.
Next, across the screens, after so much talk about calculating personal targets, you can finally see how it works in the scenario. All the criteria – such as weight, height, activity level, age, and biological sex – affect this value.
Once it’s determined, it becomes much easier for the user, because the question How much should I drink? has an answer.
The app provides it! -)
And almost lastly, I want to mention the settings, where the user has the standard set of tracker functions, plus the option to recalculate their daily target, set wake-up and end-of-day times, and choose when to send water reminder notifications (if enabled).
