Cabin Watcher

Cabin Watcher monitors your house, cottage, cabin or any other building. The app consists of two parts: - Recorder: An android service that uploads temperatures to the cloud. Can be run on any android phone (android 5.0, lollipop and above) - Viewer: - An android widget with the current temperature. It uses push which means optimized battery consumption and that the latest measurement is viewable instantly. - A view containing list with the messages from the recorder devices Functionality: - If the temperature drops below a user defined threshold (e.g. a broken window) it will send a message to the viewer - If the power is lost it will send a message to the viewer - It pushes the current temperature to viewer for real-time temperature viewing on your phone - Webpage with graphs and export possibility The temperature cloud data is accessible from https://cabinwatcher-f2c45.web.app or by clicking on the widget. From there you can see temperature history (as a graph) and download all temperatures into a csv (excel compatible) format The normal first-time installation looks like this: 1. INSTALL RECORDER Install Cabin Watcher into any device (that should be in the cabin).

For the next recorder you install choose "SIGN IN" instead of "REGISTER" - You can have as many viewer widgets you like on the same phone (nice if you have several recorders) - You can install viewers on as many phones you like and connect them to the same recorder (share the temperature recorders with friends and family)
