ALABAMA – Just in time for Labor Day on the lake Alabama Power has reworked their popular Shoreline app and relaunched it as Smart Lakes. The new features include a more interactive interface specifically designed to make the user’s lake experience even better, as reported by Market Screener.
“The new, Smart Lakes app will be even more useful to those enjoying our lakes,” said Herbie Johnson, Alabama Power Hydro general manager.
The app will also provide lake-specific data about water levels and generation schedules and provides a single resource for lake related information. With the new app, users can now:
• Find the best fishing spots, restaurants and marinas via an improved map
• View weather forecasts localized to your favorite lake, including predicted high and low temperatures
• Report invasive plants
• Request a lakeshore permit
• Control their lake home’s smart thermostat from their smart phone, so they can set it before they arrive and save energy while they’re away
• Get the latest news about what’s happening on Alabama Power’s lakes and rivers.
The new Smart Lakes app can be downloaded, or upgraded, from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
