A lot of my clients struggle with tracking their water and have asked for a water tracker

Add Water Tracking & ability to set a nutrition goal as "meals tracked". Meaning that clients can get awards for simple taking photos of their meals & being accountable via photo taking

I am copying this comment from another idea since I see that this idea is currently Under Review and the comment might get noticed. The original idea where I posted this was about being able to schedule habit notifications/reminders multiple times a day.
YES!
I really try working with my clients on improving their habits, but the thing is they kind of forget about the habits when they only receive 1 notification/day, and certain habits (like drinking water) would work better with multiple reminders across the day.
I have found a very interesting To-Do app with amazing Habit Functions which Trainerize could implement to improve this feature. The app is called TickTick. I would love to do in Trainerize as a coach what I can do with the TickTick app.
Maybe Trainerize could somehow integrate with TickTick. That would save a lot of time for the developers I guess.
Some examples of Habit functions:
- Scheduled reminders by the coach (but also modifiable by the client)- Pop-Up notifications to complete the Habit without getting into the app.
- See Habit Completion per day. Like if the client only drank 3 glasses of water instead of 4 glasses, show a bar or circle with 75% of habit goal.
- Habit Snooze, so if a client doesn't have the time to drink water when the app reminds him to, he could snooze the notification with 15 mins, 30 mins, 1hour, 2 hours etc.- Integrate certain Habits with the Widget metrics. So, for example, if we have a "5000 Steps a day" Habit, then it's completion should be either Manual or Automatic using the number of steps registered in the Step Count Window. The same with sleep or calorie burn. This function already works with the Weight. When the weight is updated, the goal also updates automatically.
- Allow the client to add a quick note for the habit
- Make Habits viewable in the clients personal calendar (like Google Calendar, iCloud Calendar etc.)
These are all my ideas on this topic for the moment.

Tracking water intake is an essential part of a trainer's ability to keep their clients accountable. This needs to be added as a Widget alongside Steps, Sleep, and other important markers.

Can we have a quick add feature for water intake like on FitBit, MFP, etc? General habits like "drink more water" are great but they aren't scalable or practical. When I have a client trying to work on hydration and we're working up to their goal amount, I need a way to practically see how much they're regularly getting and they WONT track unless it's crazy easy to do so. Having a quick add option within the habit to enter amounts like 8oz, 12 oz. 16 oz, and 32 oz. would be amazing. I use my FitBit app to track my own but it's crazy annoying to have to use 5 apps to track everything and google forms, email, texting, and everything else to keep track of all the stats I need for my advanced clients.

To have the ability to enter in how much water they are drinking would be splendid, as a trainer, Water intake is a common habit prescribed to clients and it's tedious to retype the same habit over and over again under the "custom habit" field.
The ability to see where they currently are and where improvements could be made would be tremendous. -

I have all of my clients on either a Fitbit or an apple watch to connect to the app. I track water, sleep, steps, food, and activity for them daily. I am looking to be able to see their water intake off their app automatically loaded onto trainerize just like steps do! Holds the client accountable, but also so I don't have to text them every day asking.

Something that tracks and reminds a client within the app.

MFP already syncs with the app for clients’ food, it would be nice to also see their tracked water.

Add a Water intake widget so that trainers can help clients track their daily water intake or sync what is available for water intake from the myfitnesspal app.

We'd like Trainerize to build a habit template for water intake. Water intake is a common habit we prescribe to clients and we are finding it tedious to retype the same habit over and over again under the "custom habit" field.

Show steps, water and sleep as a bar chart with the ability to set a goal like nutrition so clients can see their progress exactly like the nutrition.
If they use fitbit or withing then this data is available. The line graphs are not very helpful when trying to teach clients about consistency.

allow users who don't use MyFitness Pal to track water consumption straight from the app!

I would like my clients to track their daily water intake. Currently there is not the ability to do so through the daily nutrition goal and I was hoping it could be separate!

measurable daily - set simple goals that get checked off daily or that can be worked toward (ex. 70oz water/day)
