Hidrate Spark PRO 2 – Smart Bottle with Drink Reminders & Water Tracking, Great Holiday Gift for New Year Resolutions – 21oz – Syncs with Apple Health, Fitbit, Smart Rings & Watches – Straw Black

Not great at all!
Hunk of garbage. Good concept, water bottle is decent quality, app doesn’t work. Constant recalibration, resets and would write consumption to apple health but not to its own app, therefore never logging progress. Therefore there is no value in the product.

Water bottle
It’s awesome and I love the reminder tone but it’s too sensitive that you can’t really use it in the car as it detects movement.. so it might record more than you thought you had for the day. Still awesome though.

Old Pro Version was Much Better
Oh, Hidrate Spark, what did you do? The new Pro 2 line is a huge step backward from the older Pro bottles.The lid is defective. Pushing the button doesn’t open it — I have to awkwardly hold the bottle in one hand while also pressing the button with my thumb, and muscle the lid open with my other hand. If my hands are full, I skip water even if thirsty.The bottle didn’t want to connect to my app. Super buggy, but I eventually got it manually added to my phone. App no longer acknowledges bottle color, which seems silly, but is an issue if you have 2 or more bottles. I inadvertently ordered a straw lid, and the white chug lids are on indefinite back order status on the company’s website.The bottle isn’t consistently reminding me or flashing to confirm sips. It incorrectly changes blow colors.I have my bottle to be silent after 10 pm, but I travelled from CA to NY for a week and the bottle didn’t recognize the local time zone from my phone, so the bottle was beeping and flashing until 1 am. I finally just let the battery die on the trip.I’d skip this version. Hopefully they’ll release an improved version.

Waste of money
I really wanted to love this bottle, especially after the ridiculous price I paid, but so far there’s nothing “smart” about this “smart” water bottle. I connected it to phone as instructed. Calibrated. Start drinking from it thinking it’s auto-tracking as it should. Then I go on the app. Nothing’s been tracked. It tells me I need to recalibrate. I recalibrate. An hour later the same thing. I don’t know how many times I had to recalibrate. I even disconnected and reconnected the bottle multiple times. Nope. Useless. I still have a “recalibrate” message on the app as we speak. Not tracking anything and half the time it won’t even find the bottle. Will likely throw it away. What a waste of time and money.

I’ve been using the Hidrate Spark Pro 2 after owning the first version (which I used for over a year), and it’s a big step forward. The original already helped me drink more water by gamifying the whole thing and syncing smoothly with my phone and Apple Watch. This new one keeps all of that and improves the design, battery life, and finally switches to USB-C charging.A few things you should know.• The old model came with both a standard lid and a straw lid.• This new version makes you choose.• On Amazon UK, I could only buy the straw version. Not ideal because cleaning a straw is annoying.• Buying the other lid separately from their US store costs way too much once you add shipping.The app is great overall, but there’s one catch. It connects to Apple Health and automatically increases your daily water goal based on your activity. On gym cardio days, that adjustment makes sense. The problem is the suggested intake is slightly higher than what I’m comfortable drinking. I can hit the goal, but I end up feeling bloated. You can lower the goal manually, but then you lose the dynamic activity adjustment.Despite that, I still love the bottle. I use it every day. It keeps me drinking consistently, the build feels much better than the first version, and the charging situation is finally modern. If they bundled both lids again and refined the goal system, it would be close to perfect.

Sim muito melhor que a primeira versão
