Useless in the developed world

No ability to use metric, does not work on iPhone 14 or newer cameras. Waste of time and money.

Metric!!!

Apps not bad, but countries like Canada exist that use the metric system how about a simple switch in settings like most other apps

Did work but now it’s garbage

I saw some reviews on how the app wasn’t working for people but I found a way to make it work. That was until they updated it. Now the new version doesn’t work and I can’t make it scan the stick at all. I wish they left it alone because what did work for some doesn’t seem to work for any. I guess I’ll go back to the old way of water testing and avoid this company. Download an app called Test Strip Scanner. Well worth the buck and it does read your left over Aquachek strips. Then you can purchase one of the other brands it supports so maybe this company may realize it needs to listen to its customers.

Complete garbage

Why is this app even on the App Store? It doesn’t even work, I can’t get passed the manual input as it keeps taking me right back to the first question. Please remove or fix. Not happy, junk app and products.

Need to update the camera settings in the app to actually work

Can rarely get the camera to focus correctly. Not user error. Can focus just fine until you get as close as required to get a picture. Wish there was a better way to chose which lens the camera was using to get the picture. That or allow for pictures to be taken at a greater distance and then cropped down and sized as needed. Not worth the money (product) if you can’t actually use it.

Manual Entry Broken

Please fix or pull this from the App Store.

Updated**Update broke app

** bumping this up to four stars. Tech support responded and advised to delete and reinstall app which fixed the issue.

App worked great last year but the recent update makes its best feature useless. The new update doesn’t focus on the strip. Even when strip is held far away and in focus the app will not read the strip. I’ve tried taking a manual image following the instructions and it will still not read the strip.

Nice App but fix the Auto capture function

Great Idea for an app to help you track pool quality. It tells you a guess at what chemical to put in the pool to bring it into stabilization. The camera strip function is basically useless. The camera will not focus at all and to align the test strip it IS SO SENSITIVE. What is the point of having an app if it’s not easy to use ?? I can already guess by eyeballing the test strip. Fix the camera macro function and make the aiming function a little easier to auto capture and you will have 5 stars.

Camera won’t focus

Bought this to help as I am color challenged. Have been using the digital version which seems to work great. On advice from spa tech, was told to try this as it is supposed to be more accurate. Set up the app, put the test strip n the water and the camera will not focus. Tried my wife’s camera and same problem. Went to my actual camera app and it took a very clear picture. Unfortunately, this app would not import that picture and the camera is still fuzzy.

Photo capture stopped working

Used it last year and it was fine but this year it does not work at all. No matter what I do the app refuses to read the strip. Then to do manually totally defeats the purpose of these expensive strips. Something must have changed in their server or app that now can’t read the strips at all. A total waste of money. Sad. It would not focus when trying to put the strip in the right place of the app photo space as it super blurry and no way to correctly focus. Total waste
