Paani Peelo

Every water app is easy to ignore. Paani Peelo isn’t.

When it’s time to drink, someone who loves you walks onto your screen with a glass of water, right over whatever you’re working on, and asks you to drink it. Say “Yes, I drank” and they beam. Say “Not now” and they walk off sulking — and come back after your snooze, a little more insistent each time: gentle, then pleading, then hands on hips.

Choose who reminds you: Amma, Appa, Dadi (with her walking stick), your wife, your husband, or your little boy or girl. Each has their own look and their own voice, and speaks English, Hindi, Telugu or Tamil — in their own script or in English letters.

• Set how often they come, how long “Not now” lasts, your active hours and days. • Keep count of your glasses against a daily goal, and get a celebration when you reach it. • Pause reminders, or tell them you just had a glass. • Answer from the keyboard: ⌘⇧Y for yes, ⌘⇧N for not now. • Change their skin tone, hair, clothes, glasses and extras.

Paani Peelo lives quietly in your menu bar. It needs no account and makes no network connections: your settings and your water log stay on your Mac.

One purchase, yours for good — no subscription, and every update included.

Paani Peelo is a friendly reminder, not medical advice.
