Development of a water drinking schedule for athlete using an android mobile application

Abstract

Water has an important role for human health because human body parts are in the form of liquids, so humans are required to consume drinking water regularly. This study aimed to develop a schedule for drinking water to meet the fluid needs of athletes based on an Android mobile application. This study used the 10-step development research model developed by Borg and Gall. The product developed in this study was validated first by material and media experts. The results showed that the percentage of the material expert's assessment was 79%, which was in the feasible category, and the media expert's assessment was 96%, which was in the appropriate category. After it was declared feasible, this product was tested on large and small groups based on trials that had been carried out showing that it was feasible. The final product in this study is the Minum Kuy application, which is a reminder application to drink water and controls the amount of water that is drunk every day.
