Hydration Wasn’t the Problem. Consistency Was.

Hydration Wasn’t the Problem. Consistency Was.
Most users already understood the importance of staying hydrated.
They carried water bottles to work, gyms, study spaces, and while traveling.
Yet hydration was still inconsistent.
During focused work, meetings, workouts, or commuting, users lost track of when they last drank water. Most only remembered hydration after feeling tired or dehydrated.
