Set the frequency to Daily.
Turn on a reminder for mid-afternoon, when it is easiest to forget.

Mark each scheduled day as done, skipped or failed, and watch the streak in Statistics.

Why track drinking water?

Drinking water is a small habit that is easy to forget during focused work. A reminder on the PC you are working at catches you when you need it.

Tips that help

Define "done" as a rule (for example, finishing a refillable bottle twice) so the check-in is clear.
Keep the bottle in view of your screen.
Pair it with existing breaks: a glass at every meal.
Follow your doctor’s guidance on how much is right for you.

Log it in one press

Put the habit on a key with the HabitLine Stream Deck plugin to mark it done without opening the app. The free plan covers up to 5 habits; Premium is unlimited.

Common questions

Can HabitLine count glasses of water?

HabitLine records each day as done, skipped or failed. Write your target as a rule on the habit and mark it done when you reach it.

Can it remind me during the workday?

Yes. Set a reminder time on the habit; HabitLine can stay in the Windows tray all day.

Is HabitLine free?

Yes. The free plan never expires and includes 5 habits, 3 goals, 3 tasks, 5 journal entries and 1 project. Premium removes those limits and adds the full calendar view for $4.99/month, $49.90/year or $149 once.

No. HabitLine runs in guest mode with your data stored locally on your PC. Signing in is optional and syncs your habits, goals, tasks and settings across your Windows PCs.
