Need to Fix Phantom Water Useage

Has the potential to be a great product but the Phantom water usage issue needs to be fixed if they want it to be a product that consumers can rely upon for leak detection. Thats the main reason I bought it and until now it hasn’t been reliable enough for that because it shows water usage that doesn’t exist even when shutting the water main.

Pretty good

I just switch to Droplet after trying out a Kickstarter competitor.

The Droplet app is much nicer and generally works well. It connected to Home Assistant very easily!

Some areas for improvement:
- tagging is now broken in latest app version, please fix
- it’d be nice to send alerts to multiple phones as txt messages

Useless & not working

Worked a few days then threw me out and doesn’t recognize my credentials. Also kind of useless because it’s not really learning anything or maybe it just takes a lot of time to learn. Will probably send it back and ask for my money.

Pretty Good, but needs revision

I have no real complaints about the device or the app. The only thing I suggest is they allow people to tag previous events. For instance, the device takes a few seconds to notify you that water is being used. However, in that time, the usage can stop and it’s too late to tag it in the app.

5 stars once you fix a tiny thing

Your app registers as a browser on iPhone, so every time I scan a QR code or click a link it opens in Droplet. This is true even after I confirm Chrome is my default browser app in iOS settings. Somehow your app is capturing all links and QR codes. Just ask ChatGPT how to fix this and do it in Xcode. It won’t be hard, then I’ll give you 5 stars here and on Amazon.
