Setting up your LeakBot using the LeakBot app is a simple process. Scroll down for a step-by-step guide.

Step one – Software requirements to use the LeakBot App:

If this is your first time setting up a LeakBot device, you will receive a request from your phone informing you that the LeakBot app wishes to use your phone’s location services to pinpoint your location.
