💧 Your water buddy

Drink water with a little friend.

Homie is a water drop who lives in your tank. Keep the water above the pace mark until it drains at night, and Homie stays happy.

Hydro Homie's tank, with Homie floating above the pace mark

How it works

One simple game, all day long.

The tank fills from when you wake up and drains two hours before bed, so you're never chugging at midnight.

Log in one tap

Save the glasses and bottles you own, then log a bottle, a glass or a sip. Or log from a widget, a notification or an NFC sticker.

A notification from Homie: you've been ghosting me, 0.5 l behind

Homie barely texts

One to three messages a day, and only when you're behind. Tap a button in the message to log without opening the app.

Streaks that forgive

See every day at a glance, keep your streak going, and use a freeze when life gets in the way.

How do I restore Homie+ on a new phone?

Sign in with the same Apple Account, open Settings in the app, scroll to the bottom and tap Restore purchases. The Homie+ screen has a Restore button too.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Open Settings in the app and tap Manage subscription, or go to the iPhone Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends to avoid the next charge. You keep Homie+ until then.

How does the free trial work?

The yearly plan starts with 7 days free. If you cancel before the trial ends, you aren't charged. Apple gives one trial per Apple Account.

Why am I not getting reminders?

Homie only texts when you're behind, one to three times a day. Check that notifications are allowed for Hydro Homie in the iPhone Settings app, and that Focus isn't silencing them. Your wake-up and bedtime set when reminders can arrive.

My drinks don't show up in Apple Health.

Open the Health app, tap your picture, then Apps, then Hydro Homie, and turn on Water. Drinks logged from other apps and smart bottles come into Hydro Homie the same way.

How do shared tanks work?

Anyone can join a friend's shared tank for free from an invite link. Hosting your own tank is part of Homie+. Everyone in the tank sees each other's name, today's amount and goal, and can send a nudge.

Where is my data, and how do I delete it?

Your drinks live on your devices and in your own iCloud. I don't run servers and don't collect analytics. Delete the app to remove local data, and remove synced data under Settings, your name, iCloud, Manage Storage.

Is Hydro Homie medical advice?

No. It's for general wellness. Talk to a doctor about how much you should drink, especially if you have a medical condition.
