• Monitors and logs when power is cut or restored • Can automatically turn on torch (use as an emergency light!) • Adjust minimum outage duration sensitivity to avoid detecting micro cuts HOW TO USE: • Connect your device to a power adapter and arm the alarm. That's it! If the power goes out, an alarm will go off. The alarm can be used in the background and with the device locked, just keep in mind these tips: • Do not terminate the app from "recently opened apps"! • Try not to use any apps that are demanding of your phone's resources while the alarm is armed, such as music, video, and games. If there is a flood or a storm coming, or if you have delicate electrical equipment, this app comes in handy. You can go to sleep with a peace of mind, knowing that if there is an outage, the app will wake you up! Control the alarm sensitivity to choose how long an outage takes before the alarm goes off to avoid detecting power blips. You can also set up email alerts for remote monitoring, and keep an eye on your power when you're at work. The app monitors both power cuts and restorations, and provides comprehensive logs which you can sort and filter, so you can avoid unpleasant surprises and take control. You can also use this app as a handy anti-theft alarm if you are charging your device in a public space (like an airport)! If somebody disconnects your device from the charging cable, the alarm will sound.
Not dependable
Maybe it’s me but can’t get it to work properly. Sounds the alarm when activated, being charged, every few minutes. I have an iPhone and am not using the low power feature. Any suggestions, like the idea.
Peace of mind
In a heavy rain our basement stays dry only when our sump pump is working. When power goes out we have a battery backup pump that should activate. However, one time the backup system failed and our basement flooded. If necessary we have a generator. However I need to be aware that power has gone out, which might not be the case if it happens overnight while I’m sleeping. Knowing this product will alert me so I can check the pumps and basement lets me sleep without stressing.
Great App
I’ve used this App during several times very cold temperatures, when the possibility of power loss is great. If the power goes out during the night I need to know so I can take action of draining the pumps for our pool. One small question. Recently the app shows a message by displaying the number 1. I see a restore purchases button and it has removed the notification. Now the number 1 just stays on the screen. I don’t see a way to contact the developer. Over all a great app. Thanks.

Nice!
Worth it! One time purchase for the outage alerts. Money well spent. Any plans to support Macs? Would love to get alerts from MacBooks. Thanks!
Thank Goodness!!
I own a small adult family home and CANNOT be without power! I have a gas generator but need to know when power is out so I can start it up. This app saves me all the worry of not knowing if the power is out or not! So happy with this app!! I won’t lose another nights sleep due to checking power!
Great for monitoring fish tanks or for caregivers
Pros -I can lock my phone, and the alarm still goes off (during tests, at least); no need to keep the screen unlocked with the screensaver the app just needs to armed and left running in the background (testing while writing this review) -programmable alarm delay in case power is restored quickly Cons -can’t change the sound of the alarm; typical panic alarm sound. But it gets the job done if power supply is critical. -only has an email option; an SMS option might be critical for when the app is setup to notify a caregiver of a power outage Suggestions -alternate alarm sounds -Home Screen arm-alarm widget (nothing fancy) -Data network disconnect detection/alarm (if the power goes out, the WIFI will likely disconnect). This might be an alternate solution for someone who doesn’t have a charger on-hand, or beside the bed. All-in-all, this app serves my need and will let me know if there’s an outage. I care for two saltwater fish tanks, one 30g and one 140. The power can be off for Andre hours without much harm to tanks, but the real fear here is the skimmer pump turning back on when the power does, and it could overflow if the sump’s water level hasn’t equalized, which would dump skimmate into the water and nuke my tank. I’ll be paying for the 99¢ app even tho I don’t need the additional functions, it would be nice to support a developer that might be willing to support added features!
