These water conservation apps range from sustainability tracking platforms to mobile games that feature an eco awareness component. With the need for environmental responsibility at an all-time high, energy brands and appliance companies aren't the only ones introducing sustainable home solutions.
These water conservation apps also encourage ecological responsibility and don't only reduce one's energy bills but also track water consumption in a myriad of ways. In addition to calculating daily and monthly usage, these mobile platforms also track water waste within one's neighbourhood and are even equipped with informative features that chronicle the ecologic footprint of different food and drink items.
Other standouts from this list include sustainability-focused tech accessories that are phone and tablet compatible and equipped with an accompanying app.
