Dropcountr

Dropout did a great job keeping me apprised on water usage when I lived in Austin and helped point out potential problems before they became big ones. Only reduced bc the app asks for a lot of privileges (ability to write over other apps, for example) that seem unnecessary for the task.

I find this a very useful app. Recently I had the city I live in change their water meter, so I could see hourly usage. This gave me a more accurate understanding of how I was using water. I can now see how much we used to take showers etc. in the morning, as well as water used for watering my landscape at different times of the day (meaning I can see the usage based upon how I have my automatic sprinkler timer set up, for example the drip watering versus the lawn sprinklers in the front and rear of the home). This added detail really helps focus on where I might be able to save water and money. When I moved in my home a year ago I didn't have any history for a week to week or month to month comparison. Now that I have built up this history from my usage, to determine if I am making progress in reducing water use. The feature that shows my usage versus "similar" or "efficient" customers may have value, however, it is hard to figure out what an home might be included in each category. Getting the median average as well as mean average might give these reference data more value. Overall, a very good and useful app. Pretty critical given that droughts will return.

Very professional company with good follow through. I now have comfort in knowing if there is a major leak I will be notified. Lanny S.

I supposedly have leak detection alerts turned on. Yesterday I accidentally left a hose on. It was on for almost 24 hours before I noticed it. I got no leak alerts. No notification, no email, no SMS. Nothing. The entire reason I wanted this app was for leak alerts. So basically it's no good

Have had water service for less than 6 months. App opens in the 6-month view and bc I don't have data that far back, the app crashes. I can sometimes quickly select a different time period before it crashes to view my data. Developers, set the default view to open on day rather than 6mo to solve the problem!

Crashes as soon as I try to view water usage. Does not work at all.
