Best Android Apps for Pool Maintenance


Pool maintenance remains something of a mystery to many due to it requiring a bit of expertise and know how. That’s why pool owners have to call the services of a pool guy who comes regularly to ensure that the pH levels of the water are properly balanced, and that the right amount of chlorine is being used. Luckily, with the breakthrough of modern technology, pool maintenance doesn’t need to be a mystery anymore because there is now an app for that! Now pool owners can learn more about what is going on with their pool when their pool guy isn’t around. This can help them to make informed decisions, and to just be generally a bit more knowledgeable about what, exactly, their pool guy is doing to their swimming pool. Let’s take a look at some popular Android apps for pool maintenance.

Insta Link Water Testing

This free app allows you to manage your pool’s chemistry by analyzing the photo that you take of a pool test strip. It analyzes the data, telling you exactly what kind and how much chemicals you need to be putting in your pool. Its an interesting app, but make sure you fully know what you’re doing if you decide to do this sort of thing yourself. Remember that handling chemicals can be dangerous, so take the proper precautions.
