Okay, so I downloaded WaterGarden because I'm terrible at drinking enough water, and the whole plant thing sounded kinda cute. It's pretty straightforward to use, you just tap the "Add water" button and pick how much you drank. I like that you can see your daily goal and how close you are to hitting it right there on the main screen. My little plant is slowly growing which is surprisingly motivating, like I don't wanna let it die ya know?
The garden itself is nice, the illustrations are real pretty. I've only unlocked a couple plants so far but it’s cool to see them sprout up. It's a simple idea but it definitely makes me think about grabbing a glass of water more often than I used to. I’m not sure if I’ll ever collect all the badges, but it's a nice little extra when you recieve them.
My only real gripe is that sometimes it feels a little too basic. Like, I wish there was a way to customize the cup sizes a bit more easily instead of just presets. And I haven't seen any notifications or anything reminding me to drink, which would actually be helpful for someone like me who forgets. Still, it's doing its job for now.
