Hydration Reminder Scheduler
Generate an evenly-spaced hydration schedule for your day. Enter your wake and sleep times, set your daily water target and container size, and get a complete drinking schedule with timed reminders. Never forget to drink water again.
Why schedule hydration?
Spreading water intake throughout the day is far more effective than drinking large amounts at once. Your body can only absorb roughly 200–300 ml (7–10 oz) of water per 15 minutes, so chugging a liter in one sitting means most of it passes through without being fully utilized.
Consistent hydration supports:
- Physical performance: Even 2% dehydration can reduce endurance, strength, and coordination. Staying hydrated throughout the day means you start every workout properly fueled.
- Cognitive function: Studies show that mild dehydration impairs concentration, working memory, and mood. Timed water intake helps maintain mental sharpness all day long.
- Digestion and metabolism: Water is essential for nutrient absorption and helps maintain regular digestion. Steady intake supports your metabolism more than sporadic large drinks.
- Recovery: Hydration plays a critical role in muscle recovery, joint lubrication, and reducing inflammation after exercise.
By setting specific times to drink, you remove the guesswork and build a habit that becomes automatic over time.
