Smart Water Tech

Clean logical UI, but missing a lot of functionality. Currently will not allow me to set an accurate location so rainfall forecast is inaccurate. Wildly inaccurate usage statistics as well. Pump management in the app only allows for on and off (threshold and timer settings are ignored) and pump will only run for 3 minutes (it runs indefinitely from the on-site controller). This could be a really useful functional app addressing and increasing need for water management but it need a lot of work..

Randomly resets water tank level history which is pretty annoying, the wifi display still has history but app doesn’t. Also, app would be better if the average daily usage doesn’t take into account when tank is filling when it rains i.e. calculates usage from amount of water being taken from tank and not include when it fills. Don’t waste your money on the subscription either, unless you have multiple transmitters, where i believe you do need the subscription. I purchased the subscription for the forecast feature, however this is useless as it just tells you what the weather forecast is and does nothing towards estimating water tank levels. Time for version 2.0 i think

App loses all historical data; has done this 3-4 times in 2 1/2 years since installing. Very frustrating :(

The app has some serious bugs. The LCD loses connectivity to wifi and upon reconnecting, it loses all stored site info. After which all devices have to be brought back within bluetooth range to reconnect. The app needs to be updated so that wifi configuration is easy and straightforward. The range of tank monitor and pump controller is good. This unit is not at a professional level for pump control. There is no way to know if the pump is running. If the wifi issue is fixed and made easy to configure, it may be worth investing in. I have already purchased the hardware so I will continue testing.
