HiCoffee Reviews

i like the whole design and look of HiCoffee honestly. The animation that plays when you add a cup of coffee to the "caffeine intake" chart is pretty cool, but i'm just confused as to what i'm suppose to do with the information that i'm inputting into the daily logs? i guess if you want to become more "concious" on how much caffeine you're intaking on a daily basis, then its a neat app? I usually drink about the same amount of coffee on a daily basis so i don't really need an app to tell me how much i'm consuming, but its nice to know the exact number though.

Clean interface, easy to log. I’d like to see more non-coffee caffeine brands, but creating your own beverage isn’t much of a hassle and only has to be done once. For 5 stars would need an explanation of the watch dials; they’re beautiful but not particularly intuitive. The “comprehensive” dial, for example, has nice colors and probably conveys quite a bit of useful info… to someone. A page in the faq would be nice. I’ll update to 5 if I ever figure it out.

Very pleased with HiCoffee , bought the premium right away. I love that it has Apple Health and Apple Watch integrations. Fast to set up and use.

It’s way too coffee centric. I was disappointed (especially being a premium member) that there are no pre-defined soda and energy drink beverages.

I know “coffee” is in HiCoffee name, but this is a huge gap in my opinion. Caffeine varies even more wildly in sodas. There is a big user base of soda-only drinkers. Caffeine addiction is a problem with us soda heathens too :)

There is also an opportunity to track other stimulants such as taurine and creatine (shudder).

It’s easy to add my own beverage but I could see this being a “drop out” moment for your users.

It been a wonderful app designed for coffins intolerant people. Really love it. I only give it a four star because for me it has one possible improvement. It would be better if it could also provide a caffeine calculator for the aero press method. I alway use aeropress to prepare my coffee. For now I have to assume that caffeine from the aeropress is similar with the French press, which I am not sure.

HiCoffee has helped me track caffeine intake and how long it stays in my system. The two things that would make HiCoffee even better would be the ability to generate an apple shortcut to register a tasty beverage or variable caffeine intake and a way to adjust the rate of caffeine intake-I don’t usually drink a 20oz beverage at once like HiCoffee currently applies caffeine intake. If there was an additional setting for ‘how long it takes to drink’ and then factor caffeine intake over that time; I think we might have a 5 star app here.

Great for Starbucks and Nespresso users. Had to program in Coke Zero and other basic sodas. Also doesn’t include major regional bands like Wawa, non-McDonalds fast, and other major chains. Bought $8.99 app (bc I don’t tend to like subscriptions) and probably wouldn’t have once I realized that it doesn’t fit my lifestyle. Like the watch face option which is a great feature. Would recommend to folks whose lifestyle it fits.

This is a great app for tracking caffeine intake. I'm trying to cut down on diet soda and having actionable data in front of me seems to be helping. The sleep feature is pretty interesting. My sleep patterns aren't really impacted by caffeine but I imagine for someone more sensitive the sleep threshold would be very useful. Love that it syncs data to the Health app. Highly recommended app!

-I would love be able to touch and hold on the metabolism graph and get an exact number for each hour.

-more icons like powder (pre-workout) for custom drinks and pill icons

Otherwise the design is beautiful and has great widgets. Props for offering a one time payment rather than subscription system.

I love HiCoffee, I use it during the chill year to keep track of my intake so I know not to take too much. However I workout a lot, and pre workout has delay release caffeine, so 100mg of regular caffeine and 300mg of delayed release. I think this would be a good idea to add as an option for custom drinks.

HiCoffee makes it easy to define your own drinks and brands. Intake logging is easy and after a few weeks you can get some amazing charts and stats on how intake relates to heart rate and sleep. The free plan does everything I need and there are no adds at all. I went ahead and bought the one-time premium to support the author.

HiCoffee is so helpful and has a beautiful interface on my phone and watch. It sounds cheesy but it’s really making it fun to do something I don’t especially want to do (track and limit my caffeine intake). I’ve only been using the free version, but it looks like the premium would be even more convenient and worth paying!

I love the graphs and the watch complications. Solid caffeine tracker.

There are metabolism inputs, but if there is info out there on how to calculate the caffeine half-life and limits by weight, that’d be nice to include or teach me about.

I used Recaf for a year or so and was frustrated with the functional inconsistencies and difficult UX. HiCoffee is a really nice replacement and I bought it right away, but there are some things I miss like reminder notifications. Some additional icons would be nice, and the ability to make better adjustments for intake after selecting a preset (e.g. 215mg in a 5 Hour Energy shot... I can say I had 4 of them but not half of one.)

I’m tracking my caffeine to cut down using the free stuff for now. I often forget about how caffeine has a half love while breaking down and so it is good to get an understanding of what my caffeine content is some logging my intake, to how long it’s been. What I thought was anxiety/mental health stuff has been way too much caffeine, also way too late in the day. Love HiCoffee.

I generally really like HiCoffee . The UI is very well done and provides useful insights into how caffeine is processed in your body. The widgets are perfect. One feature request - can HiCoffee show what drinks I can still take now to meet the sleep line at 10pm? Eg today it says I have 150mg budget left but clearly if I drink a large latte at 9:30pm, I won’t sleep well even though it’d still be within the budget. The metabolism chart is only updated after I add the drink (I understand I can add the drink before actually drinking it and then undo, but that’s more cumbersome)

I remember the old Jawbone UP caffeine tracker, it was great and simple and had the fun bubble UI. It went away and I had been searching ever since for a viable replacement. I gave up and used a complex Siri shortcut until I found this app. Gladly paid the price for the premium because the dev has gone above and beyond here. Rich interface, easy tracking and wonderful integration with watch and health. Great work.

You are doing a good job of updating the software in a timely manner which make a difference. I love the software and use it daily if I have any negative to say about the software is add more if it doesn’t take away resources from the software of the program is to add more to the database of the caffeinated drinks so it would be easier for people

I’ve had HiCoffee for a few days and I love it. I paid in full on the first day and it’s incredibly worth it. I saw someone on r/applewatchfaces with it as a complication and figured it would be a handy app.

In combination with a Hidrate Spark water bottle, I have a good idea of my water to caffeine intake all day. this app offers a lot of customization too. The options in HiCoffee and the widgets make it feel like part of iOS, and it just works so well. Kudos to the creator!

HiCoffee is great and very well made. Unfortunately I bought the premium version without testing out the Apple Watch app. I have the Apple Watch ultra and I can’t get HiCoffee to sync with the phone app. It doesn’t display any of my data. Already re-installed both apps and made sure that ICloud was enabled. Can’t contact via email because it wants to automatically load up the Apple mail app and I don’t use that to email.

Don’t usually leave reviews but HiCoffee is really good! I use it every day to track my caffeine intake I bought the pro version on the first day lol. It’s easy to use and you can add custom drinks so as long as you know roughly the amount of caffeine is in your drink as soon as you plug it in the graph will show you how long it will take for you to burn it off. Really good if you’re trying to get a better nights sleep because you can plan how much caffeine you want in your body at bed time which is why I started using it

I bought the premium features on HiCoffee solely because the developer released a quality caffeine tracker whose free version is very feature rich. The developer deserves to be rewarded for this.

The interface is beautiful and HiCoffee does exactly what you want it to: monitoring your current levels of caffeine in your body.
