Pool journal
Pool Free Chlorine Journal
A private, on-device journal for pool readings and maintenance history.
Free to download. Pro is optional.
The app is a journal for recording observations. It does not prescribe chemical treatment or replace product labels, testing, or qualified pool-care advice.
Optional Pro
On iOS 16 or later, an optional one-time Lifetime purchase unlocks Journal Pro. Compare the count, average and range of free-chlorine readings across two consecutive 7- or 30-day periods. Logging, history, basic trends, archiving and JSON backup and recovery stay free.
A practical workflow
When to use Pool Free Chlorine Journal
- Record a tested free-chlorine value with its date.
- Revisit the reading beside maintenance notes.
- Keep pool observations in a private local journal.
Choose this app when its documented scope fits the task you want to keep on your iPhone. The free web resources below are independent alternatives for a single worksheet or calculation.

Before you choose
Does it tell me how much chemical to add?
No. It records observations and history; it does not calculate a target, chemical dose, treatment or water-safety decision.
Can I use the web worksheet without installing?
Yes. The printable sheet and browser chart work separately. Their CSV files are not app-import files.
How can I keep an extra copy of app data?
Use the app’s own JSON export through Apple’s file interface. A saved worksheet is a separate record, not that JSON backup.
