Toowoomba Region smart water meter app hits 10,000 downloads
Published on 06 November 2025
Toowoomba Regional Council’s smart water meter project has hit another milestone recently with 10,000 downloads of the app which assists residents to track their household water consumption.
TRC’s Strategic Water Planning and Capital Delivery portfolio spokesperson Deputy Mayor Councillor Rebecca Vonhoff said the project was yet another example of TRC’s commitment to investing in technology which benefits the community.
“The smart water meter project is revolutionising the way residents can track their water usage each and every day.
“We recently reached the milestone of 50,000 installations of the smart meters to properties and on the back of that achievement, we now have more than 10,000 households tracking their water usage using the app,” Cr Vonhoff said.
“Being able to see how much water you used yesterday compared with the day before, or how you’re tracking against daily targets takes the guess work out of saving water. The app gives people more control of how we all use our most precious resource instead of waiting months and wondering.
“This project is another example of TRC’s commitment to harnessing technology to assist our residents across the region.
“I encourage anyone who hasn’t yet downloaded the app to do so, to ensure you’re utilising all the benefits of this new technology. You can download the Toowoomba Water app from the App Store or Google Play store or access it online at water.tr.qld.gov.au.”
TRC are working alongside Optus, ETS, Iota and GreenBe to deliver this project.
“Thank you to our partners for their role in providing our Region a solution to digitally monitoring our water usage.
“This project is an investment into our Region’s future, by assisting residents to actively save water which in turn improves our water security,” Cr Vonhoff said.
