Hydration tracking best practices

In this article we would like to share some tips for accurate hydration tracking for your PureVis 2 Bottle:

1. Make sure that a measurement is taken immediately after filling the bottle. The best way to ensure your bottle takes a measurement is to place it on a flat surface and then open and close the spout cover. Wait several seconds to allow the measurement to finish. If it is not during the quiet hours set through the app, then your bottle will display a single pulse of white light on the LED ring to indicate a successful measurement.

2. Small sips will not always be counted as they happen. The application will wait for a minimum change in volume before adding the amount to your hydration tracking total. If a single drink does not show up, don’t worry– the volume will still be counted in your next drinks once the total change surpasses the threshold.

3. When replacing the cap on the bottle after a fill or cleaning, check to make sure there are no particles or debris on the quartz window that could affect the measurement. During use, it can help to occasionally tip the bottle upside down for a moment with the flap closed to allow the water in the bottle to clear any particles, condensation, or large droplets from the window that may be affecting the accuracy of the measurements.

4. Make sure that a measurement is taken when the bottle is empty or before you refill. Small refills will not always be counted so it is best only to refill when the bottle is empty or when less than half full. Again, the best way to ensure your bottle takes a measurement is to place it on a flat surface and then open and close the spout cover.
