Water Reminder – Remind Drink is an Android reminder and logging app. It can prompt you to drink and help you record amounts, but it cannot establish your personal medical fluid requirement or guarantee protection from disease.
The app by recorder & smart apps still has a live Google Play listing. The earlier article overstated its health benefits and described it as completely free without explaining the ads and in-app purchases. This guide focuses on what the app can help you organise.

What the app offers
The developer describes adjustable reminder intervals, quiet time around sleep, drink amounts, intake charts and corrections to earlier entries. The app also proposes a daily target using details such as weight and gender. Treat that proposal as an app estimate, not a medical assessment.
Choose an appropriate goal
The NHS hydration guide explains that fluid needs vary, including with heat, activity, pregnancy and illness. Fluids also come from drinks other than plain water and from food. An app total is therefore not a complete measurement of everything your body receives.
If a clinician has given you a fluid target or restriction, follow that plan rather than the app’s calculation. For example, the National Kidney Foundation notes that people on dialysis may need to limit fluids. Ask your care team whether and how a reminder log fits your instructions.
Do not drink extra just to complete an achievement or clear an alert. This app is not a way to diagnose dehydration, explain persistent symptoms or decide treatment.
Set up reminders that fit your day
- Open the official app and review its setup questions and permissions. Check the amount unit used so you do not confuse millilitres with another unit.
- Review the suggested goal before accepting it. Use a goal appropriate to your circumstances and any professional advice you have received.
- Choose reminder hours and intervals that fit your normal waking routine. Keep sleep time out of the schedule.
- Record what you actually drink. If you enter the wrong amount, correct the log instead of treating an inaccurate total as a target to catch up with.
A marked bottle or cup can make entries more consistent than guessing its capacity. The log is only as useful as the information you enter; it does not independently measure what you drink.
If reminders are missing or too frequent
Check the app’s schedule first. Then review Settings → Notifications → App notifications for Water Reminder; Android menu names vary. You can adjust or turn off alerts instead of repeatedly reinstalling the app. Google’s notification guide explains the available controls.
The developer’s privacy policy explains that internet access supports advertisements, alarm access supports scheduling, and audio or storage access can support choosing a reminder tone. Read the actual permission prompt before deciding. The policy is a developer statement, not an independent privacy audit.
Reader Recommendation
Choose this app if a drink log and adjustable prompts help your routine. If you only need an occasional reminder, your phone’s existing alarm or reminder app may be enough. Neither option replaces individual medical advice.
How to Uninstall Water Reminder
Save any intake history you want to keep, using an export option if available or your own notes. Open Settings → Apps → Water Reminder → Uninstall. If you bought a recurring plan through Google Play, cancel the subscription separately; removing an app does not cancel its billing.
Review scope
This is a documentation-based app guide, not a hands-on notification test or a clinical evaluation. It does not prescribe a fixed amount of water for every reader.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Water Reminder tell me exactly how much to drink?
Its target is an estimate based on setup information. It does not assess your medical history or replace instructions from your clinician. Adjusting a reminder is different from deciding a medical fluid target.
Is it completely free?
Google Play identifies ads and in-app purchases. Check the actual offer before accepting a paid option. Free installation does not establish that every feature is included without payment.
Does it automatically measure my water intake?
This guide describes an entry-based log. Record the amount you actually drink and correct mistakes. A reminder going off does not mean you have consumed the amount shown.
Do I need a separate app for a simple reminder?
Not necessarily. If you only want one or two prompts during the day, an existing phone alarm may be sufficient. A separate app is more useful when you want an organised history and adjustable drink entries.
Should I drink extra to reach the app’s goal?
Do not use an achievement or notification as a reason to exceed advice you have been given. If the suggested target conflicts with a fluid restriction, follow your care team’s instructions and ask how best to use a log.
