Sorry… You say it is FREE, yet looking at the services it mentions Subscription based……. Not a chance sorry.
If I paid subscription for all my fully paid apps based on your yearly rate I would have to find An additional £1,500.00 per year.
Please don’t say “you can pay a lifetime £8.99”….. That’s nigh on what I paid for Procreate!

Actually, ALL our features are free :) Subscription doesn't unlock any additional features, but removes ads.

Depends on how you look at it. Other hydration apps have multiple features hidden behind the paywall, we don't. You can enjoy all our features, and it won't cost you a penny. We offer subscription as a way to support us in the development of this app.

I wish you well…. Honest I mean that.
I was fortunate to purchase a similar app (My Water) many years ago and helped with beta testing.
Although my app is the full version and I receive updates at no extra costs, any new users would have to go subscription only and the developers charges are MUCH MUCH higher than your app…. Hence why I am against subscription based apps sorry.

Not a fan for just one simple reason

even though it’s using Apple health to read and write data, my diet and fitness app which also tracks water intake doesn’t seem to ingest your data

Thanks for feedback! Good point, we'll think about how we can improve it in the future.
