PoolMath app feature request -- individual measurement history

[jmastron]

Please let me know if there's already a way to do this, or move this thread if there's a better place.

It would be really nice to be able to look at the logs for an individual measurement -- for example, to click on "CH" and see just the logs of CH measurements. I measure FC and pH often, of course, but I usually only measure TA, CH, CYA, and Salt levels 3-4 times a year because in my pool they basically never change so no need (CYA and Salt need topping up every year). But when I do, it's nice to look back and see how it compares to the last times I tested them, but they're hard to find scrolling back and back through the full log.

I saw a request for graphs, but just a simple list of measurements and dates seems sufficient. It could basically look like a filtered version of the "Logs" screen, with just the selected parameter being shown (or, perhaps, all parameters shown but only for log entries that include the selected one). I resorted to exporting the logs and skimming through the spreadsheet, but it would be nice to just click in the app and see how what I just measured compares.

Anyway, tossing that out there in case others do similar with some tests daily, some tests much much less often and would find this useful.

If you go to Summary from the menu on top left - you can pick a timeframe and get close to what you want. It will tell you how many tests you did, the High and Low value and the average for that time period. It will also tell you what chemical additions you did and the effect of adding it. Check it out.

That is a good start, thanks for the pointer. Having the high/low/average is nice -- a couple enhancements would give all the info I was looking for:

- An "All" (or "All Time") button for the timeframe would be nice.
- Clicking on an item could give the details of the test logs (just a list of test dates/values)

Again, just a suggestion, if others would find it useful too, great; if not I'll continue to export and skim.

If you only need to see the most recent test result (i.e., you don't also need to see multiple earlier results), that info is already visible as you're entering new test results (at least on Android):
