SplashMate vs PoolVault

SplashMate is the pool water tester that won't guess. Scan a test strip or enter your readings by hand, and get clear, on-device results and exact dosing for your pool — no lab, no account required, and no made-up numbers. WON'T GUESS — BY DESIGN If a strip photo is unclear or a pad can't be read reliably, SplashMate tells you instead of inventing a result. You're never handed a chemical dose based on a reading it wasn't sure about. Anything you didn't test shows as "not tested," never as a placeholder number. WORKS WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Testing, dosing, and your water history run locally on your device. No sign-up is required to test your water. Create an optional account only if you want iCloud sync across your devices.
