Installing the app and creating your account
Everything you do with the Aquarino KH happens through the Aquarino app, available for Android and iPhone. It is how you add the equipment, follow the measurements and change settings — at home or anywhere else.
6.1 Installing the app
Search for Aquarino in your phone's app store and install it. The same app serves the whole product line — Aquarino KH, Controller and Display.
6.2 Creating your account
When you open the app for the first time, tap Create an account and fill in:
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Name and Surname | How you want to be identified in the app |
| Telephone | With the country code. Used by support to reach you |
| An address you actually check — this is where the activation PIN and every equipment alert will arrive | |
| Password and Confirm password | See the requirements below |
Password requirements
- 8 to 60 characters;
- at least one uppercase letter;
- at least one lowercase letter;
- at least one number;
- at least one special character.
The app shows the requirements on screen and ticks each one off as you type.
6.3 Activating the account
Once you have signed up, you receive a 6-digit activation PIN by e-mail. On the Activate account screen, type the code into the six boxes and tap Activate account.
6.4 First sign-in
On your first sign-in the app offers two optional features that are worth enabling:
| Feature | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Enable biometric lock | Requires your fingerprint or face to open the app. Recommended, since the app commands equipment on your aquarium |
| Enable push notifications | Alerts arrive straight on the phone, in addition to e-mail. It is the fastest way to learn about an off-target KH or an empty reservoir |
Once you have chosen, tap Start app.
