Away Mode is a feature that can be enabled on Phyn App v. 4.6.1 or higher. Away Mode makes the Phyn Smart Water Assistant very sensitive and it will alert you much sooner if it notices any unexpected water usage activity.
It’s perfect for when you are out of town and there should be no ongoing water usage at your home. When Away Mode is enabled, an alert will be triggered if the algorithm detects continuous flow, at any flow rate, for 1 minute or longer.
Note: If you enable Away Mode, be aware that if you have any appliances or fixtures that use water continuously for 1 minute or longer while you are away, the Phyn Plus will detect that water usage and send you an alert.
