Voice-Powered Hydration Tracking
Say it and it is logged. Track water with Siri Shortcuts and Google Assistant without touching your phone.
Opening an app every time you take a sip is tedious, and tedious habits do not last. Vari integrates with Siri Shortcuts on iOS and Google Assistant on Android so you can log water with a simple voice command. Whether you are driving, cooking, at the gym, or in a meeting, just say the phrase and your intake is recorded instantly. Studies show that reducing friction in habit tracking increases long-term adherence by up to 60 percent.
Voice Commands You Can Use
Quick Log
Say 'Hey Siri, log water' or 'OK Google, log water with Vari' to instantly record one glass (250 ml) of water.
Custom Amounts
Say 'Hey Siri, log 500 ml of water' to record a specific volume. Works with milliliters, ounces, cups, or bottles.
Beverage Types
Say 'Hey Siri, log a coffee with Vari' to track different beverages with their correct hydration coefficients.
Status Check
Say 'Hey Siri, how much water have I had today?' to hear your current intake and remaining target without opening the app.
Getting the Most from Voice Logging
- Set up your Siri Shortcut once in the Vari app under Settings > Integrations > Siri Shortcuts.
- Create a custom trigger phrase that feels natural like 'I drank water' or 'hydrate me.'
- Use voice logging on your Apple Watch or WearOS device for even faster tracking.
- Pair voice commands with existing habits: log water right after saying good morning to your smart speaker.
- Enable the confirmation sound so you know the log was recorded without checking your screen.

Calculate My Water IntakeFrequently Asked Questions
Which voice assistants does Vari support?
Vari supports Siri Shortcuts on iOS and iPadOS, Google Assistant on Android, and voice commands through Apple Watch and WearOS smartwatches.
Do I need an internet connection for voice logging?
The voice command itself requires an internet connection since it goes through Siri or Google Assistant servers. However, if you are offline, the log is queued and synced automatically when you reconnect.
Can I customize the default amount logged by voice?
Yes. In Vari settings, you can set your default glass size to any amount (e.g., 300 ml, 12 oz). When you say 'log water' without specifying a volume, it uses your default.
Does voice logging work with the Apple Watch?
Absolutely. Raise your wrist and say 'Hey Siri, log water with Vari.' The entry syncs to your phone and updates your Hydration Score in real time.
Is my voice data stored by Vari?
No. Vari never records or stores your voice. The voice assistant processes your command and sends only the structured data (amount and beverage type) to Vari.
