Pooli

This is an excellent app for any pool or spa owner!

Easy way to track your pool trends and insightful instructions how to resolve issues

I would have completely flunked and screwed up my beautiful new pool if it wasn’t for this app. I get reminders to get out and empty the skimmer basket, it tells me what to add to fix my problems (tip from locally owned pool store, regardless of calculations always start by adding 1/3 to 1/2 recommended doses), and this app lets you add partial doses and then reminds me to add the rest. That said, if you retest and the problem is fixed the reminder goes away. Also, tap the color cube on the right when entering the test results if you need a decimal, it took me two months to figure that out. I find the inventory storage somewhat helpful too, the app also tells me how much I’ve been using. This is a brand new concrete and pebble salt filtration pool so my ph problems will eventually subside, so I’ve been told, and I expect the reminders to adjust because I’ll be using less over time. This app takes all the worry and stress out of new pool management. I was overwhelmed when the pool company handed over control but this app has really educated me on how to handle. I may in like 5 years not need it beyond the reminders but I can’t think that far ahead.

Very helpful with getting your water chemistry correct.

Question/Suggestion: My only question/suggestion for Pooli (and it seems there is inconsistency across the industry on this) is the chlorine levels based on CYA. I really like to have that turned on, but even with it on, the numbers are just a little low based on the experts at Trouble Free Pool. I realize I can turn that off and set my own, but I like that it automatically calculates based on CYA, just with they were a little higher. Decided to try taking on my pool myself, and download a few apps, including this one. Overall, this one is by far the best so far. The Pool Math app by Trouble Free Pool is a good choice as well, but Pooli is completely free (thanks developer(s)) if you are doing your own tests and entering them yourself. The Trouble Free Pool website is also an awesome community, and I have been relying on that community a lot recently. Also, I don’t want to use the adjusted Alkalinity. I have that off, but it continue to shows the adjusted number and is putting recommendations and tasks based on the adjusted number. ***Edit*** Developer is awesome. Responded to an email super fast (which I wasn’t sure a response would even come), and mentioned an adjustment for this would be coming. Thanks again! Super awesome.

Had sooo many issues with balancing my hottub until this app came along. Absolutely amazing, love the product recommendations as well. Where have you been all my life!!!!! ☺️

and I’ve tried a bunch. Just get it!

I like that it would tell you what to add if the chemistry was off in your pool. But if you do multiple scans, you will get huge swings in between each scan never consistent at all. One minute you will be adding 2 pounds of baking soda, and the next scan will tell you not to.. I had two months left of my membership and did not need it to renew because of wintertime coming up so I canceled it. Now I lost lost the last two months that I paid for. You’re better off calculating what needs to be added by yourself. Just compare the strip to the bottle and you will have much better accuracy. The app is very clunky and confusing at times. Adding stuff to your inventory doesn’t work very well. I was told to fix certain issues with chemicals that I don’t have before it tells me to use what is in my inventory.

Finally able to balance my pool chemicals for the first time ever.

This apps free version walks you through everything you need to do for your pool. It does the math for you. This thing rocks.
