Review Summary
Users appreciate 'Water Reminder' for its simplicity, effectiveness, and helpfulness in maintaining hydration during computer work. The app offers both audio and visual notifications with adjustable intervals and is free of ads. However, multiple users report issues with volume control (too loud with no slider), inconsistency or absence of visual alerts, and lack of time-based scheduling, resulting in reminders through the night. Some users desire better interaction with the stop function and more customization options for notifications. Despite minor flaws, it remains a favored tool for hydration reminders.

Cons
- Notification sounds can be too loud without an option to adjust volume.
- Visual notifications sometimes fail to appear, diminishing accessibility and effectiveness.
- Reminders continue throughout all hours without scheduling options, causing disturbances especially at night.
- Interaction issues like clicking 'stop' sometimes removes or resets the timer instead of pausing reminders.
- Lack of customizable messages or ability to upload personal audio notifications. (mentioned by a few users)
