3.10.0 4 days ago
NEW
- Installer Mode: plumbers can accept an install job by code or link, pair devices directly into building units, run per-device diagnostics with a guided valve test, move devices between units, and finish the job.
- Install Documentation: capture photos and notes into tamper-evident install reports with installer sign-off. View, export (PDF) and manage your install reports from Account and from each device's install record.
- Device MAC address now shown in Additional Configurations, with tap-to-copy (sensors now show their device information too).
- Clearer sign-in errors: if your account is temporarily locked you see when you can try again, with "Email me a code" offered as the way in; requesting login codes too quickly now explains the wait.
IMPROVEMENTS AND FIXES
- Pairing: more accurate troubleshooting when a device can't join your WiFi, times out, or is already registered; Try Again and Contact Support are always reachable.
- Smart-home connection now recovers on its own when its session expires, instead of pairing failing until the app is restarted.
- Firmware: the auto-update switch now tells you if the device refuses the change; update checks stop for devices removed from your account.
- "Add Device" from an empty property now opens the correct setup flow.
- Notification settings: fixed an error when saving email preferences on some notification types.
- Contact Partner: "Email Partner" is hidden when your partner has no email on file; calling stays available.
- Email links now offer Gmail and Outlook and no longer fail when Apple Mail isn't installed.
- Information dialogs are easier to read, and messages no longer appear dimmed behind open menus.
- Fixed unreadable text on the Nearby Devices card during setup.
- iPad: no more errors when notifications are turned off.
ALSO IN THIS UPDATE
- Sharing improvements, including the correct default-property badge for shared properties.
- Device thresholds no longer silently revert after a mode change, and a new 3-second undo window when switching modes.
- The device menu scrolls correctly at large text sizes.
- More reliable keyboard on the login-code screen.

- Expected Water Use (in Property Settings): set recurring schedules for sprinklers, RO flushes, or water softener regen, and we'll temporarily relax leak alerts during those windows so you don't get false alarms.
- The app icon badge now matches your number of unacknowledged alerts and clears properly. It clears when you Acknowledge an alert (or it's resolved on its own), not just by dismissing the popup.
Bug fixes
- Devices no longer briefly show "Offline" during short connection blips. A device now only shows offline after a sustained outage, and returns to online the moment it reconnects.
