Oi vey

This new app update is not user-friendly. Trying to get into certifications is definitely not easy. The instructions should probably be more detail.

Better

I was already using it on a daily basis. Now the updated app is more useful and even more of a pleasure to use.

An idea who’s time has come

The idea that a simple device can detect a faulty wire, connection, or receptacle is reason enough to use a Ting monitor. While I have not yet found any problems with my electrical system,I am convinced that the device is capable of detection and notification. The ideal scenario is that a problem never occurs however I feel that it’s a great way to stay on top of problems.
