Scam
Do not I mean do not give your credit card information especially from your apple wallet!!!!!! This has no contact information
Super useful
A pool mai te ande essential for me.
Great app
Has been a great teaching tool for me
Don’t have the chemicals I use.
Bummer. I really loved this app at first, but now I’m confused and cannot find a way to contact the company to ask for help. Doesn’t feel good to pay for an app and then not be able to get support. When using the calculator, it has certain options in a drop down menu to choose from so you know what amounts to add. But my chemicals aren’t in the list and there’s no help I can see to convert. One example: my ph up is liquid potassium carbonate. But what is on the list for raising ph is washing soda, soda ash, and borax. I google and can’t find any link between what I have and what they’re listing. So I’m stuck. Not cool.

App suggestion
App is great but I have a suggestion. Can you put a page in that allows us to change our tested amounts all at once without having to back in and out of each item?
When I’m testing I do all my tests and then go back to read results so it’s a pain to have to constantly switch pages
Otherwise the app is great!

Sad Trombone
As I recall this app used to be da bomb. But now it doesn’t work well on iPad or iPhone. Same failure scenario, can’t do a test without it crashing, or can set a parameter and then not be able to change it. Using the back button brings you to a blank page and have to force quit if you have any suggestions I’d be happy to try it, but I’ve had to resort to one of those other offerings that are simply not as user friendly (well, crashing is not user friendly but I remember when it used to work. I think it was a web app at the time )

Works Well and now saves settings
The app did the job for me. Pool type volume etc are saved and loaded each time I restart the app. Would be good to be able to enable/display and disable/hide the chemical settings that are not of interest. Also name them at full name rather than the abbreviation I.e Total Alkalinity rather than TA.
It works well and now saves the settings from one session to the next even across devices if you create an account.
Thanks for a very useful app.

DO NOT BUY!
Waste of money. Company is in Nigeria. Wonder how much experience they have with pools - and with pools in our latitude.
Paid $5 for this app.
- It does not allow addition of a second pool or spa even though the one added is called “first pool.”
If you have two units, the size must be reentered for each one if a different one is tested next.
- And there is no tracking of history. Each test is entered separately with treatment suggestions given for that one instance.
No way to know what I did last week or last month.
-Have two stars because it does calculate pool size and gives suggestions based on the chemicals you buy (assuming “washing soda” is the same as sodium bicarbonate or baking soda).

Lifesaver
Moved to the country and built a pool. No one wants to come out and service it because the round trip is too long. This has been an incredible tool. First time pool owner. I have a sparkling blue pool all summer long!! Highly recommend!!!
Fair but lots of room for improvement
I am not sure how this app beats a piece of paper. I use an Excel spreadsheet to track my testing results and chemicals to be added to the pool. My objective is to develop charts to show the apparent interaction over time between chemical changes Ph, Cl, ALK etc. This app doesn’t appear to keep any records to compare one week vs the next. So I ask, why not us s piece of paper. This is junk.

Data entry
After entering data for FC I select done; it reveal a ; it takes me to the main data screen then show no data has been entered. Unless you enter 1-5 it doesn’t save the information you entered it instead shows invalid number entered error. I wish my free Chlorine was between 1 to 5 ppm but it’s not.

Water temperature missing
Are use this for a few years now, and I’d give it five stars however, this new version has deleted water temperature setting which affects balancing of chemicals.
Update Bleach Percentage
The only gripe I have is that it doesn’t have the new 7.5% Clorox Disinfecting Bleach as an option in the “Effects” tab. If this gets updated it’s an easy 5 Star App.
Covers All Bases
The App is great. It also me to use alternative chemistry in my pool. I don’t have to buy chemicals from a “pool” store. I mostly shop the grocery store and the local big box stores.
Not very good
The online version is better. I’d like a refund please. The app has a slow reaction time, does not store or chart results of tests. Critically the app does not give recommended dose amounts by weight unlike the online calculator.
Update is not good
All my old data got erased and the new app update simply does not work. I’m super disappointed.
Update Broke the Calculator
After the recent update, it seems impossible to update the volume calculation. The keyboard hides any of the other tabs at the bottom and there’s no way to dismiss the keyboard.
The app used to be a 5 star app
Since the recent updates the app has become harder to use, and they have taken away from the app the most important reading for pool pros - the “Borate” testing option is no longer available on the app.. but is on the website? Does not make sense. There is also no contact form on the website, and app support takes you to the same website where there is no contact option.
New look is not appealing or helpful in any way. Revert the app back to the way it was.

Response from developer
Hello TXHPS, We just updated the app and hopefully this addressed your issues. We fixed the issues related to the recent release and Borate is now in the app. Please email us at support@poolcalculator.com if you are still having issues.
Worthless
I paid for it and I get nothing a blank screen. Worthless app
Latest update made app useless
Loved this app until the recent update. Virtually nothing works with it. Horrible! Had to go find another app.
