Creating an account unlocks personalization, devices, history, alerts, and optional paid features. The dashboard groups tools so you can watch live sensors, manage hardware, invite household members, and—when permitted—administer users or contact submissions.
Account creation
Registration uses email and password via Supabase Auth. Password reset and (when enabled in Supabase) OAuth providers such as Google, GitHub, or Discord are available from the sign-in page. New users start on the Free plan with a default household.
Getting started checklist
The overview dashboard shows a short checklist: create a device or feed, confirm live readings, then optional steps for alerts and household invites. When core and optional steps are done—or you dismiss it—the checklist hides; use Show checklist to bring it back.
Devices & sensors
Under Devices you can:
- Push devices — ESP/Arduino POSTs JSON to a unique ingest URL. Save the one-time key, add sensor keys that match your payload, rename devices without rotating keys, and rotate keys when needed.
- Pull feeds — HTTPS JSON URLs we fetch on a schedule, with probe labels and feed health.
After sensors are added, verify ingest (or wait for the next pull), then open Home to confirm live values. See ingest & webhooks for payload examples.
Display preferences
Choose whether Home shows garage sensors, outdoor weather, or both. Preferences live in your profile metadata and apply immediately after saving.
History
Paginated history lists temperature/humidity snapshots for your household. Filter by feed, probe, and date range; clear filters if a query returns no rows. Browsing is included for all signed-in users; CSV download requires Member/Pro (or admin). Background collection runs hourly; refreshing Home while signed in can also record snapshots.
Alerts
Configure freeze, humidity, rate-of-change, and outage thresholds on Alerts. Free plans include email and Discord; Pro unlocks SMS, browser push, and outbound webhooks. Enable a channel only when its destination is filled in—incomplete channels are skipped. Use Send test now to see which channels actually fired.
Households & share links
Invite family by email from Household. Members share devices and history for that household. Pro users can create read-only share links for people without accounts; revoke or remove expired links anytime.
