Buying guide
The genuinely useful thing a connected purifier does is tell you the truth about your filters. A blinking LED is easy to ignore for a year; a phone notification telling you the RO membrane has 8% of its rated life left, with a service booking button underneath, is not.
Look for three features specifically: a live output TDS readout so you can verify purification rather than trust it, per-filter life tracking rather than a single generic countdown, and in-app service booking. Everything else — voice assistants, usage graphs — is pleasant but not the reason to buy.
Native by Urban Company deserves particular mention here, because it closes the loop: the app that tells you a filter is due is operated by the company that will send the technician, at a published fixed price.
