Starting Charging Subscription for Previously Included Features
I can’t recommend this now that there is now a subscription. I paid nearly $500 for the meters and now features are limited.
Below 0.5 gpm is useless
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.

Bluebot
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.
Inaccurate; discrepancies
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
Best water meter on the market
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
Really great product held back by app
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
Technology Seems Sound, App Needs Work
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.

Love bluebot
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.

Great product, buggy app
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

Nice hardware, graphs flaky
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.

Awesome product
This is a product that goes far beyond the other products on the market that Measure water usage. As a landlord of three different tenants, I needed to be able to measure water usage without interrupting my tenants and doing so. Not only has this product proven to be amazingly accurate but Also non-intrusive to my tenants, gives us the ability to print out where in usage amounts and bill accordingly, do you know if he web based and app based access allow great usage and monitoring what’s happening. I will mention it is imperative that you follow directions when installing. Once installed properly we have experienced zero problems. Awesome product!!!!

Great hardware. Software unusable
The hardware is amazing:easy to install and quite accurate. But the software has always been bad and the recent update is basically terrible. I can’t get it to load/it’s incredibly buggy/crashes consistently/ and require reinstalling the app. Some basic UI concepts like a load status indicator are totally lacking. My guess is the business is contacting with some offshore development shop that has no idea how to build software. Hope the company can fix this soon / it’s really unfortunate to see a great idea suffer so much from a bad choice in software vendor.

Great hardware, hobby-grade software
The software at every generation is consistently buggy and generates crashes, fails to load data, etc. Hardware is marvelous and simple to install. Will be a great system when they fix the user experience.
Demystifies water usage!
Living in a building with six other units sharing a single meter, the water bill can be a point of contention, particularly during a drought. Bluebot has given me such insight into how we use water, it’s just automatically made us much more conscious of how we use it. How much does a 5 minute shower use? How much does running the dishwasher use? You can figure it all out with this. I love it and would and have recommended it to friends and family.

Great way to track water usage
I have been using this device for about 3 months and it is a peace of mind to track water usage through this user friendly app. After having a major water leakage in my home last year, I really needed something to make sure I don’t have leaks or other water usage that I am unaware of. This really solves that problem for me. I also love the ability to check the water usage when I am on vacation as I know the only water used should be for my garden. Would recommend this .

Widget good, app bad :-(
As an early backer I received the widget about a month ago. It installed easily, but using the app on my iPhone 6S or iPad makes it nearly impossible to input the phone number and password. The app now wants me to sign in again, but it won’t actually let me get to the password entry field. I can *almost* get there on my iPad, it seems I’ve forgotten it and can’t reach the “I’ve Forgotten” button at the bottom of the form.
Please fix this ASAP!

Awesome App!
This is a great app for learning where you use water and how to save money. I like the alerts to help me identify leaks and the ability to share with others. It is also great that the device works on any pipe type and size and doesn’t require any tools or cutting pipe. I highly recommend bluebot.
