Tracking Custom Data Points

Hello! I'm looking to create a basic app to track how much water you've drank for the day (allowing you to specify how much water you just drank via a watch widget, and having that info get synced to my phone or as a data point). Is this possible with the current Connect IQ SDK? If not, can I make a feature request to have the API allow the tracking of custom data points (calories eaten, water drank, beer cans crushed against head, etc)?
  • You could use the FitContributor API to do this. It allows you to record custom data to a FIT file (which typically stores activity data, such as speed, heart rate, etc), so you could write an app that writes data with a button press or based on some other trigger to count items like you're wanting to do.
