BrinePulse: Salt Level Monitor

Never be caught off guard by an empty water softener again. BrinePulse turns your water softener into a smart, connected appliance — giving you real-time salt level readings right on your phone, wherever you are.

🔬 LASER-PRECISE MEASUREMENTS
BrinePulse uses a VL53L1X time-of-flight laser sensor to measure your salt level with millimeter accuracy. No floats, no guesswork — just precise depth readings converted to a clean percentage reading you can understand at a glance.

📱 MONITOR FROM ANYWHERE
• LOCAL MODE: When you're home on the same WiFi, the app connects directly to your device for instant 5-second live updates.
• REMOTE MODE: When you're away, your readings sync to the cloud so you can check your salt level from anywhere in the world.
• AUTOMATIC SWITCHING: The app seamlessly switches between local and remote mode without any manual input.

🔔 SMART SALT ALERTS
Set custom warning and critical thresholds. BrinePulse sends you a push notification when your salt drops below your set levels — so you can plan a refill before it becomes a problem. Alerts are rate-limited to avoid notification fatigue.
