Pool Buddy

Optional, more possibilities

Pool Buddy
Premium

The free core already helps with everyday pool care. Premium adds forward-looking forecasts, an inventory manager for your chemicals and more – for anyone who wants to keep even less in their own head.

Unlock Premium directly in the app under Settings.

What Premium adds

Nine features, one goal: less guesswork

Pool Intelligence

Learns your personal chlorine consumption, flags unusual deviations and suggests an overnight chlorine test when useful.

7-day forecast

Predicts when chlorine will run low, pH will drift, or algae/scale risk will rise – with a date.

Inventory management

Quantity & shelf life of your chemicals – a warning before something runs out or expires.

Annual costs

Electricity, chemicals, water and heating for your season – the chemical costs come from the doses you actually logged, not from a flat estimate.

Weather-corrected forecast

Heat and rain automatically factor into your chlorine and pH forecast.

Multiple pools

Its own setup, readings, history and inventory per pool – switch with one tap.

Photo analysis history BETA

Estimate water colour from a photo and see how it changes over time. Photos are analysed exclusively on your own device.

Test-strip scan BETA

Read test-strip fields from a photo and add them as a reading automatically – also processed entirely on your device.

PoolLab import

Pool Buddy supports PoolLab 1.0 and PoolLab 2.0 over Bluetooth. Readings are taken straight from the photometer – no retyping. Access is strictly read-only.
