You have to sign up for extra services to get any notifications (unless you are constantly watching the app). They also don't have any other options, like humidity or temperature. I returned them.

  Hello pschaefer121,
  
  Thank you for sharing your feedback. We apologize if there was any confusing regarding the functionality of the Wireless Leak Alert Sensor. You can use this product free of charge right out of the box. Please note, there is no required subscription to get notifications from your Leak Alert Sensor when liquid is detected. This products is advertised specifically as a Leak Alert Sensor and we do not claim it senses humidity or temperature. Please check the link below for instructions on how to set up your sensor.

Best design leak sensor, but have limited coverage

These sensors are very sensitive to moisture, which is perfect to detect leak. Wireless transmitters are separated from water sensor, so electronics part will never get wet, and has better WiFi signal. However, one keeps dropping offline, and other ones are fine.

  Hi Alexander. If you believe the problem unit has a hardware fault rather than it just being out of Wi-Fi range, please reach out to our support team and we can help arrange a replacement. support.swann.com. Thankyou. -SD, Swann Team.
