SensorPush

I bought this because I wanted to have a record of the room temp through the night. I know what the a/c is supposed to be doing, but I wanted to see what it actually does. Now I know — the temp in my room stays pretty close to the set temp.

I recently got ☝🏻 of these & I love it improved my growing conditions in the first hour, being able to see on a chart and adjusting from there is a big improvement for me. Recommendations. Add another color to the chart for high points & Co2 readings.

Love the technology and ability to monitor my store freezers. Just need negative numbers on the scale.

Super hard to see. There needs to be a preference to use a larger, thicker font but only for this app. For too long, I was looking at the UI wondering if it was reporting, but it simply was that the font used is too small and too thin to read easily. Simply making the value reporting font bold would do a million percent in readability and letting us make it larger too would move this to a 5 star review for me. Great product. Hampered by the super small and super skinny font used in reporting the values it measures.

I have a sensor in my crawlspace to monitor temperature and relative humidity so I can adjust the dehumidifier. The sensor and app work perfectly. The app especially is thoughtful and gives me the information that guy want and need in a very usable fashion. A+++

I had initially written a single digit number on the back of all 8 of my sensors. This way if they are moved by my house keeper, I know which is which. I did this in the order of my priority thinking it would also sort them in this list from an alphabetical order standpoint. It did not. I then tried letters A-Z, again by priority, and also tried re-adding the sensors in the reverse order of how I wanted to see them listed but there seems to be no way to predict which order the app will add them into the list. Can we just get a basic, predictable pattern on how things are added? It doesn’t have to be a particular system just anything.

Could you please add the option to add notes at a time point for each sensor? So if I move the sensor, I can make a note that I can refer back to later. Also, could you please consider adding a limit that is a comparison to another sensor? Something like “temperature of sensor 1 is higher than sensor 2” Great app otherwise!

Together with the gateway, the sensors and app work well, with some room for improvement: If a sensor stops reporting, the gateway should detect the problem, triggering the app to notify the user with an alert. As it is, you have to launch the app to see a red warning message. There’s no way to see current temperature/humidity/pressure or history on home screens or lock screens. Both types of widgets are sorely needed.

It’s a nice looking app and the data collection from the sensors is exemplary. However, the app constantly runs in the background unless you force quit it and uses quite a bit of battery while doing nothing. This would be understandable if you had alerts on (otherwise, how would it know to alert you to new values?), but this happens even when all alerts are turned off. There is no way to disable this behavior besides them suggesting turning Bluetooth off, which is ridiculous since the sensors are Bluetooth. Other Bluetooth apps do not constantly drain battery in the background, so this can only be laziness on the developer’s part to disable this backgrounding behavior when all alerts are turned off.

My only complaint is that to truly utilize the sensors true potential, you have to add another item with the gateway for Wi-Fi access. With that being said, I have my sensor in my detached garage, and I can still get a reading from inside my house 50’ feet away, through walls and air…..that’s pretty dang good for a Bluetooth device! Also, anybody complaining about their phone dying because they have to have their Bluetooth on? Well, you should probably get a new phone……it’s not going to drain your battery by opening the app every once in awhile to check your conditions with the sensor, and there’s really no need to be staring at any monitor 24/7 if you have a correct setup to control whatever environment you’re monitoring…….
