Storm on the way?? Power Outage Toolkit has all you need before and after the next power outage.
* Power Alert lets you know when power is cut to your iPhone or iPod Touch. Dont get caught sleeping while your basement floods and your generator sits idle in the garage. It can be configured to set off an audible alarm, flash your camera LED, or flash your screen. This has all the functionality of those $15 devices sold in home improvement stores!
* Okay with a few minutes of lost power? Outage Toolkit now lets you control how long an outage takes to trip the alert feature.
* Once youve lost power, use Power Outage Toolkits built in flashlight to navigate around your home, start your generator, and get your sump pump running.
* Not sure what else to do during a power loss? Power Outage Toolkit has a list of tips that you should be aware of during a power loss event.
Note: Continued use of the flash may dramatically decrease battery life.
Latest reviews of Power Outage Toolkit app for iPhone and iPad
The app doesnt work with the screen locked and possibly because of this, it was disabled when I checked it in the morning. One of my reminder alerts that came on may have disabled it.
I just wasted my time and money on an app that does not work when the screen lock is on. This is a real weekends of this software.
I highly recommend this app. When a storm hits, its a lifesaver!
Unlike most apps, this is truly useful. It will get you through a power outage.
This is a well thought out app by the developer of Tapulator. I hope I wont need to use it, but its good to have on hand. The alarm is a bit quiet, a volume control would be nice (although the screen and LED flashing is very effective and attention getting). Also: pressing the lightbulb really aught to turn on the LED directly, the way it does in Tapulator. Not a deal breaker. Good stuff, and Im glad to support a good developer. PS: how about a speed dial feature for emergency numbers, like the power company report-an-outage number?
