![]() I love the trends tab, knowing how my cardio fitness, running pace, and more are doing. I really enjoy having so much data about myself thanks to the Apple Watch. Subscribe to Connect The Watts for more connected fitness news, updates, tips, and guides Apple Health integration is one of the reasons I decided to give it a try The user interface could be prettier, but it does work. Last but not least, HidrateSpark offers an Apple Watch app that shows your water ring and also has widgets for your iPhone. You can choose when the bottle glows – for me, only when I’m behind – and the app also sends you motivational notifications on your iPhone/Apple Watch. You can also compete with friends “in fun hydration challenges and earn trophies for your collection.” One thing I found a bit off is that while you can choose different colors for the bottle to glow when you need to drink water if you want to customize the colors, you need to pay extra, which is… wrong? I mean, what a weird in-app purchase for a bottle that I already paid $70, and it’s literally one of the main functions. ![]() The Home page resembles the Fitness app with your water ring, your goal percentage, bottles to go, and the ability to manually add the water you drank if it wasn’t with the Hidrate Spark Steel water bottle. It estimates how much based on your Apple Health data + daily exercises. The main page shows your water ring and how much water you should’ve drank at the moment.

Many developers rely on Apple’s style when creating a new application, but Hidrate Inc. While the HidrateSpark Steel water bottle’s hardware shines, its app is kind of lame. … HidrateSpark app, on the other hand, is not that good In these past weeks, I was able to drop the HidrateSpark Steel three times on the floor, and, to my surprise, it has no scratches or visible marks. I also need to say that this model is more resistant than I’d have guessed. Apart from the chug lid, you can open the bottle from its bottom to remove the LED smart sensor and charge the water bottle with a proprietary charger. 10/10.Īpart from the stainless steel finish, its bottom is made of plastic with an LED smart sensor inside of it. With a vacuum-unslated chug, it keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours, and, believe me, I left the HidrateSpark Steel in the hot Californian sun for about three hours in the car, and while the bottle itself was ridiculously hot, my water was as cold as I remembered. The product is made of stainless steel (early customers would complain that the other models available looked cheap because they were made of plastic). You can choose between the black or silver model, but I’m sure the black version is the go-to option.

With that in mind, I decided to buy the HidrateSpark Steel water bottle with 21 oz (620 ml) a few weeks ago to understand whether it would improve my daily routine of drinking water to have a pretty nice bottle to carry around. This water bottle features a premium look and Apple Health integration and I must admit, I got a bit too excited about a water bottle that reminds me to drink water. Last month, Hidrate launched the HidrateSpark PRO STEEL with 32 oz (around 900 ml).
