Dropy - Drink Water Reminder
Something broken, or an idea? Email barichati0696@gmail.com. Telling us your phone model and Android version makes it much easier to help.
My reminders are not arriving
This is almost always Android power management rather than the app. Check, in order:
- Notification permission. Android Settings → Apps → Dropy → Notifications. It must be allowed.
- Battery optimisation. Set Dropy to "Unrestricted" or "No restrictions". Under battery saving, Android can hold reminders back for hours.
- Autostart (Xiaomi, Redmi, POCO, Huawei, Honor, Oppo, vivo, realme). These brands stop apps from re-arming reminders after a reboot unless autostart is enabled for the app.
- Do not force-stop the app. Force-stopping cancels every scheduled reminder until you open Dropy again.
- Check your sleep window. Reminders are never sent outside your waking hours, set in Settings → Your day.
How is my daily goal calculated?
Roughly 35 ml per kilogram of body weight, plus an allowance for your activity level, rounded to a sensible number. You can override it entirely in Settings → Daily goal → Set it myself.
Why does my coffee not count as a full cup?
Different drinks hydrate you differently. Coffee counts 90%, juice 85%, beer 50%, and spirits actually count against your total. Water and herbal tea count fully. The picker shows you the exact maths before you log anything.
Can I change the quick-add buttons?
Yes. Settings → Your cups. Adjust the amount, change the drink type, remove one or add up to five. Set them to the bottle and mug you actually use.
How does the island work?
It has two separate parts. Stage is permanent progress and grows as you complete more days; it never goes backwards. Health reflects recent consistency, so it drops if you miss days and recovers quickly once you start again. Challenges add permanent decorations on top.
I changed phone. Can I move my data?
Not currently. Everything is stored on-device with no account and no cloud, which is why we can promise your data never leaves your phone. The trade-off is that there is nothing to restore from. Export and backup are on the list.
How do I delete everything?
Settings → Erase all data. It is immediate and permanent, or you can simply uninstall the app.
