ClearPool helps you keep a private, structured record of pool care. Log a water test, compare each reading with the target range you set, and keep maintenance from slipping. TEST WITH CONTEXT - Log free chlorine, pH, total alkalinity, stabilizer, water temperature, time, and a note - See balanced, watch, or needs attention status from the readings that are actually present - Edit target ranges to match your pool and test method - Reopen and edit every saved test, including records created before this update - Use the 30 day balance score to see how often measured values sat in range - Review chlorine and stabilizer trends with your own history PRODUCT-LABEL SCALING - Copy one treatment amount and its reference pool volume from the exact product-label instructions - Scale that copied amount by the ratio between your pool volume and the label reference volume - Use practical mass and liquid units plus litres or US gallons - Use the same label-only workflow for regular and shock instructions - Confirm that you copied both values and will follow every label direction before logging - Keep a local log of label-confirmed treatments CARE AND RECORDS - Schedule recurring care such as skimming, brushing, vacuuming, backwashing, and filter cleaning - Work through pool opening and closing checklists - Track chemical inventory and low stock flags - See water-test freshness and maintenance priorities together in Poolside Plan - Build and share a Restock List from the thresholds you set - Export a pool report PDF or water test CSV - Import prior water tests with duplicate detection - Create a private backup, restore missing records, or delete all local data from Settings - Set a weekly test reminder FREE AND PRO Fresh installs can save three water tests and use one complete label-scaling preview. People who used an earlier version keep their existing allowance of ten free tests. Existing records remain visible and editable. Backup, restore, and Delete All Data remain free. Pro adds unlimited new tests, continued product-label scaling, the full trend and balance detail, PDF and CSV exports, and CSV import. INFORMATIONAL, ON PURPOSE ClearPool does not calculate a chemical treatment, target, product strength, frequency, or maximum amount. It scales one amount copied from a product label solely by the pool-volume ratio. Read and follow the complete manufacturer label for how much and how often to apply, protective equipment, circulation, retesting, and swimming. Never mix pool chemicals. Consult a qualified pool professional when needed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Pool records are stored locally on your device. ClearPool has no account, advertising, analytics, or tracking. The support form sends the fields you enter plus the app, version, build, and device details shown before you tap Send. Exports and backups leave the app only when you select a destination. PURCHASE DETAILS ClearPool Pro offers subscription and lifetime purchase options. The App Store shows the options available in your region before confirmation. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple Account > Subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period.
