Watson TUTORIAL
Intro
Launch Watson & press the Start session button when you're ready to start tracking your blood alcohol level.
Default Profile
The first time you're using Watson, you will need to create your default profile in order to have a base for estimations.
Enter your name, birth year, weight, height and your blood alcohol consumption (BAC) target.
When you have filled all the parameters, press Save to store the data.
BAC tab
The BAC tab will always show you, in real time, your current blood alcohol level (indicated at the top of the screen).
As soon as your BAC will go above the target you've set (in the Profile tab), it will notify that your BAC has been busted and precisely indicate at what time your alcohol blood level will reach the target (Time to Target).
At the bottom of the screen, a quick list of your favorites drinks is displayed for a quick "punch in" when you drink one of these.
The graph page will show you how the alcohol will be eliminated by your system over time.
To access it, press the graph button in the BAC page. ![]()
The thin dotted red line in the graph represents your BAC target.
You can scroll the graph with your finger to move in time.
To go back to the current time, double click in the graph.
You have to tell Watson when you are starting to have a drink. To do this, simply press the + sign in your corresponding line.![]()
A complete list of drink categories and formats will be presented so you can mark your selection.
This list can be customized in the Drinks tab.
As you can see, in the Drink list, you also have the option to mark some food.
You'll be presented with 3 choices: Finger Food, Light Meal or Full Meal.
Keep in mind the important thing to know is the calculations are based on the amount of food (quantity) rather than the type of food.
Select the food category matching the quantity described and mark you meal when you are starting to eat.
At any time, you can add (or remove) a new buddy to your current session (if a friend is joining you for instance).
First, make sure a corresponding profile to your friend is created and saved.
* If you create a new profile, it will be added to the current session as soon as you save it (v1.1).
Secondly, simply press the top right icon in the Bac tab. ![]()
You'll be presented with a list of available profiles.
Click in the empty square on the left side of the name to add this profile to the current session and press Done.
You are now ready to add drinks in your friend's name and see its BAC independently of yours.
To remove someone from your current session, press the top right icon in the Bac tab. ![]()
Uncheck its name from the list of active profiles and press Done button.
Don't worry, if you do this by mistake, just proceed backward. We are keeping your friend's data just in case!
History tab
View in details the complete history of the drinks you had or edit this list (if you forgot to mark a drink or didn't drink it).
You can also use the History to perfom a drink session simulation.
To do this, start a new Watson session and mark a few drinks (one after the other).
When you are satisfied with the number of drinks you want to simulate in your session, click on the History tab.
Click on the Edit button and press the blue circle arrow button on the right side of the drink you want to modify.
Change the Time for instance and Save. Repeat these operations for the drinks you want to affect.
When you're finished, you can go back to the BAC tab to have your Time to Target (if going over your target) and click on the Graph button to see the curve of your drink session.
Profiles tab
This is where you can modify the parameters of your default profile.
You can also create new profiles on your device for other persons (like friends having a drink with you) and take advantage of the multi-user feature. This will give you the possibility to follow many person's BAC at the same time in the same session.
Drinks tab
Watson comes with a preconfigured list of drinks for your ease of use.
You can modify (Edit) the current list or create/delete drinks.
You can also have your favorite drinks to appear under the same category.
To add or remove a drink from the starred category, simply click on the star icon
on the right side of the drink name.
The round of drinks option lets you add simultaneously the same consumptions to all users in the active session.
To access it, click on the Drinks tab (in a multi-user session) and select the drink normally, you'll be prompted with the user's selection screen as the last step.
End Session
To end your current session, press the trash icon on the top left side of the BAC tab.
