A FEW MORE THINGSGood questions.
Good questions.
Simple answers.
A small app should be simple
to get to know.
Is Water Reminder really free?
Yes. The desktop app is free to use. There’s no subscription, sign-up, or account to create. Just download it and find your rhythm.
Which computers does it work on?
This download is the Windows desktop edition. Extract the entire ZIP, keep its files together, and open Water Reminder.exe. macOS and Linux downloads are not currently offered.
Will it remind me when I close the window?
Yes. Closing the window keeps Water Reminder running in your system tray. Click the tray icon to reopen it, or choose Quit Water Reminder from its menu to stop the app. Windows notification and Focus Assist settings can affect notification delivery.
Where does my hydration data go?
It stays on your computer. The desktop app works offline, uses no account, and stores your intake history locally. You can export your history as CSV or save a complete JSON backup in Settings.
Can I change my goal and reminder schedule?
Absolutely. Set a personal daily goal, choose your default glass size, switch between ml and US fl oz, and adjust reminder intervals and active hours. You can pause, snooze, or stop reminders once you reach your goal.
Does it have a command line interface?
Yes. The desktop app and CLI share your intake history and preferences. The packaged Windows download opens the desktop app directly. Running the CLI from source additionally requires Node.js and the application source.
