Troubleshooting
My bottle is not tracking
- Make sure to download the latest app update.
- Calibrate your 8bottle: Go to the app settings, then click on 'calibrate' and follow the prompts in the app.
- After calibrating, check that the icon at the bottom of the app home screen displays the correct amount of water inside the bottle. Refresh the main app screen by pulling down.
- If the icon doesn’t display the right amount of water, repeat step 3.
- To ensure every sip is tracked, please make sure your bottle is awake. The bottle enters a power-saving mode after a few minutes of inactivity to conserve energy. Also, ensure you drink at a natural angle (between 30 to 120 degrees). After each sip, place the bottle on a flat surface, wait for 5 seconds, and refresh the home page by pulling down to see the sips logged.

1. Use a USB-C Compatible Wall Brick:
Ensure you are using a USB-C compatible wall charger to power your wireless charging pad. Other chargers may not provide sufficient power.

Place the bottle directly on the charging pad, ensuring that the bottom of the bottle is aligned with the center of the charging area.
4. Press Firmly on Top of the Bottle:
Gently press down firmly on the top of the bottle to ensure connectivity with the wireless charger. This helps establish a secure connection for charging.
5. Inspect for Obstructions:
Ensure there are no objects or debris between the bottle and the charging pad that could interfere with the charging process.
6. Check for LED Indicators:
Look for any LED indicators on the charging pad or the bottle to confirm that charging is in progress. If no lights appear, try repositioning the bottle.
