How to track water intake

Nutrola tracks water through the Home Water card and the Log Water sheet. Tap the Water card to set a daily goal (default 2000 ml, or 64 fl oz in imperial), and you can change it anytime. To log a drink, open the center plus button, choose Log Water, and tap Glass, Bottle, or Large.

How do I set my daily water goal?

The first time you tap the Water card on your Home screen, Nutrola opens a short Water tracking setup with a few screens: a welcome screen, a "How it works" screen, and then "What's your daily goal?"

1. On your Home screen, tap the Water card.
2. Tap Get started, then Continue to reach the goal screen.
3. Enter the amount you want to drink each day. The field is pre-filled with a default of 2000 (shown as ml), or 64 (shown as oz) if your units are set to imperial.
4. Tap Save goal. Nutrola shows a "You're all set" confirmation, then returns you to Home.

Your goal is saved to your Nutrola account, so it follows you when you sign in on another device. You can change it anytime: once a goal is set, tapping the Water card opens a quick editor where you can enter a new number. The setup hint says it plainly, "You can change this anytime."

Whether you see milliliters or fluid ounces depends on your unit system, which is a profile-level setting rather than a per-log choice How do I switch between metric and imperial units?. You can also adjust the water goal alongside your other daily targets How do I set my step, water, sleep, and calories-burned goals?.

How do I log a glass of water?

1. Tap the center + button in the tab bar.
2. Choose Log Water to open the water sheet.
3. Tap one of the three quick-add buttons:
   • Glass, 250 ml (8 fl oz in imperial)
   • Bottle, 500 ml (16 fl oz in imperial)
   • Large, 750 ml (32 fl oz in imperial)

A single tap logs that amount right away, with a small splash sound and haptic tap to confirm. The sheet stays open on purpose, so you can log a few drinks back-to-back. As you log, the running total at the top ticks up toward your goal, and the floating avocado rises with your progress. When you reach your goal, the sheet shows Goal reached!

The three amounts shown are fixed quick-add sizes. Nutrola does not have a custom-amount field on the water sheet, so log the closest button (for example, two Glass taps for roughly a 500 ml drink).

Where is my water saved?

When you log water, Nutrola writes it in three places:

• On your device, so the total updates instantly.
• To your Nutrola account (in the cloud), so your Progress charts and other signed-in devices can see it. This is a fail-soft background save, not guaranteed realtime, so it may catch up on the next sync rather than appear on another device the same second My data isn't syncing.
• To Apple Health on iOS, but only if you have connected Apple Health. This step quietly does nothing when Apple Health is not connected Sync with Apple Health (iOS).

On Android, water is the one tracking type that does not sync to Google Health Connect, even though other data does Health sync on Android (Google Health Connect).

Can I edit or remove a water log?

Yes. Water entries can be removed from your tracking history, which also removes the matching cloud entry Editing or deleting water, weight, exercise and body-fat entries.

Does logging water affect my streak?

Water tracking is its own thing and is separate from your daily logging streak. For exactly which actions keep a streak alive, see the dedicated article Do water and exercise logs count toward my streak?.

A note on water reminders

Nutrola can send water reminders during the day. Once you hit your goal, the rest of that day's water nudges are suppressed automatically Do water reminders stop once I hit my goal?.
