đż Where Is My Water Going? (Beta Feature)
Ever wondered which fixtures in your home are using the most water? The new "Where is my water going?" feature in the Droplet mobile app gives you a daily breakdown of your water usage by fixture type.
This feature is currently only available in the Droplet mobile app, and is in Beta phaseâwe're improving it every day with your help.
đ What Youâll See
In your Usage tab (at the bottom of the app), youâll now find a section labeled âWhere is my water going?â. It displays the amount of water used today by:
đż Showers
đ˝ Toilets
đ° Faucets
These categories represent the most common sources of residential water use, and are prioritized in this early version of the feature.
đ§ Powered by Your Tags
Droplet uses machine learning and tagging feedback to identify which fixture was likely used. Every time you tag an event, it helps us:
Train and improve detection models
Increase accuracy
Add more fixture categories in the future (e.g. washing machines, irrigation, dishwashers)
Even tagging each fixture a couple of times goes a long way!
đ§ Still in Beta â What That Means
This is an early-stage feature. You may notice:
Some usage events aren't categorized yet
Totals may not add up to your full daily usage (uncategorized usage isnât lostâjust not yet labeled)
Weâre actively working on:
Adding more fixture types
Improving the breakdownâs accuracy
Making results more personalized to your home
