About this app

CMS Monitor is a smart water cistern monitoring app that keeps you informed about your water supply in real time — whether you're home or away.

Connect your CMS device to your home WiFi using the in-app setup wizard, then monitor water levels, receive alerts, and track usage trends from your phone.

Dashboard
View a live tank gauge with color-coded fill levels, current gallons, capacity, and water depth. An animated heartbeat icon shows when your device is actively connected.

Trend History
Explore time-series charts for water level percentage, gallons, and depth across 1-hour to 24-hour windows. See averages, minimums, and maximums at a glance.

Alerts
Get push notifications for low water, sensor failures, and device offline events. Review and acknowledge alerts individually or all at once.

Leak & Usage Protection
Set custom thresholds for net water loss, high hourly consumption, and leak detection percentage to catch problems early.

Device Management
Configure tank dimensions, alarm thresholds, sensor type, overflow detection, and LED settings. Run diagnostics to view raw sensor data, WiFi signal strength, uptime, and firmware version. Deploy over-the-air firmware updates directly from the app.

Sharing
Share device access with a property manager or caretaker, with Viewer or Manager permission levels.
