### 1/5 — Starting Charging Subscription for Previously Included Features

*2025-09-02*

I can’t recommend this now that there is now a subscription.  I paid nearly $500 for the meters and now features are limited.

### 3/5 — Below 0.5 gpm is useless

*2024-08-27*

Followed the installation and calibration steps. I still cannot accurately track any leaks below 0.5 gallons per minute  - and that is quite a lot of water usage. So this is effectively useless to me as a diagnostic tool to catch leaks. It works fine for anything above 0.5 gpm. But I don't care when a toilet flushes or a shower is running.

### 5/5 — Bluebot

*2023-11-09*

Bluebot is a money saving product and I love the app. I have one now installed on my home and am going to install another for  my guest house. Great  product, great savings, great app.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate; discrepancies

*2023-08-05*

If I “go live” I see a flow rate of 1.8gpm for my irrigation zone that runs for 2 hours. Ok, so 1.8 gallons / minute multiplied by 120 minutes is 216 gallons. Now if I switch to usage in that 2 hours it says

### 5/5 — Best water meter on the market

*2023-06-16*

There are many options but bluebot worked great for my irrigation and home water metering. Easy to install and the flow alerts keeps me knowing my water and I was able to save in overuse immediately.  Great unit

### 3/5 — Really great product held back by app

*2023-01-19*

Really useful product but the app is just so buggy: lots of crashing, items (e.g. budgets) disappear, and clunky setup wizard.  Serves a very important purpose but they need a new developer

### 3/5 — Technology Seems Sound, App Needs Work

*2022-11-17*

Have had the product now about two months. Once i installed my two devices i did a QC on rates, and both were very close to actual, no special correction factor needed. 
My issue is with the app, when i view the weekly, the days tallies seem incorrect. I can go back to the individual days and the figures are different. For example, my weekly chart shows a usage today when in fact the system is turned off. If i look under the day tab for today, it show the correct 0 by hour. Please work on the app.

### 5/5 — Love bluebot

*2022-08-06*

I am giving the app 5 stars because it just works. I do agree with other reviewers that it sometimes shows missing readings -especially if you are trying real time readings.  But what I have noticed is that after a few minutes it does show an accurate reading. Overall very satisfied. Would be nice to include option for metric system units.

### 2/5 — Great product, buggy app

*2022-08-04*

The water sensor os great!  Eqsy to install and works flawlessly. 

Unfortunately, the app drops the stars in my review. Installed a month ago and immediately found issues with an app.  It crashes often in different areas (poor quality control), there is no context-sensitive help, which is much needed as features are complicated (it’s feature-rich though).  Was planning to buy few more units for my rental properties. But decided to wait and see how quickly they will address app deficiency.  I know it’s a young company so i will give them a benefit of the doubt

### 4/5 — Nice hardware, graphs flaky

*2022-03-15*

The graphing part of the app is confusing and hard to use, and also randomly shows no data for some graphs and shows data for the same time span after browsing around and changing from hour to day etc. The real-time data being collected seems accurate, but it’s hard to browse and I’m having trouble figuring out the water use of my irrigation system. It should look more like the Tesla Powerwall app’s graphs.
