What is Stay Hydrated?
Stay Hydrated is a user-friendly Chrome extension aimed at promoting a healthy in-house lifestyle by reminding you to drink water regularly. The application allows you to set timers from 1 to 60 minutes, with pre-configured settings at 30 minutes. With options to show notification messages, play a sound at the end of the timer, and even auto-restart after a timer ends, this extension ensures that you form a regular and healthy hydration habit. It automatically begins each time Chrome is opened, displaying the remaining time in the extension's badge. However, it doesn't work in incognito mode.

It's a great extension and helped me a lot. However, the extension somehow breaks or stops working and it annoys me because it glitches my laptop. I would hear the sound go off simultaneously. It had also stopped the timer at certain moments of the day and resetting the timer would not work. I would have to go to its options and restart the extension to fix it.
