Works OK, but needs polish. Specifically, the graphs and charts that the app draws are hard to view. There's too much space between the bars requiring you to scroll back and forth a lot. It's difficult to view trends, etc. EDIT: The app has never had any real updates. The only thing this app has ever done is warn me once of a leak. Aside from that, it is very hard to use. Edited

Great monitoring. Its a little clunky with the way it shows the daily/weekly usage and their AI is certainly not all there yet regarding its estimation of what used water when. It would be cool if you could go into the app and start a session to monitor how much water you use for various tasks (like before jumping in a shower or starting dishes) to be able to gamify your usage and reduce things even more. Had to adjust the default alert because our sprinklers blow past the leak threshold.

Their main feature is the "intelligent" categorization of water usage (e.g. dishwasher, outdoor, etc) yet I'd say the accuracy is close to 50%. My main issue with this is that they don't have a way for the user to correct the category labels (which would improve their model) . So until then, its great to see overall usage, and detect leaks, but don't trust the detailed usage categories.

It's nice to have a rough estimate of what you use in a month. But their anomaly algorithms are the worst I have ever seen. I get an alert for usage every day when the sprinklers go on and I get an "suspected leak" alert once or twice a week. It's totally useless. Meant today when I actually did have a leak I just ignored the app. The developers really need to look into a better heuristic for anomalies. An LSTM would easily learn my patterns, it's just a damn sprinkler system.

Lots of false positives, and the interface could be improved. It took me awhile to realize that, while viewing hourly usage, it was showing per minute usage and that I needed to swipe left and right to view more. There's no clear indication more data is available this way. Also I keep getting notifications of leak detection like "water has been running for 2 hours at average of .2 gpm", but when I go to check the hourly usage it shows that someone took a shower for 10 minutes. Makes no sense.
