WaterMinder app has three default cup sizes but you can add Custom Cups. You can set the size of the cup as well as the type of drink (water, coffee, sports drink, etc). This will give you a more accurate measurement of your hydration levels and whether you are meeting your daily water intake goal. You can also customize the icon to make the cup easier to find.
Adding Custom Cups
1. To add a Custom Cup, go to Settings, scroll down to Cups, and tap the + icon. If you have more than four cups, you can scroll horizontally to get the + icon.
2. This brings you to the customization options for your new cup.
3. Start by giving the cup a name so you can easily identify it. Tap Name, enter a name, and tap Done. In this example, we've called it My Cup.

Each drink has a different impact on your hydration. For example, the hydration impact of water is 1. Coffee is 0.9 as it is not as hydrating as water, while milk is 1.2 because it is more hydrating than water.
