Popis: We present a simple and efficient tensor network method to accurately locate phase boundaries of two-dimensional classical lattice models. The method utilizes only the information-theoretic (von Neumann) entropy of quantities that automatically arise along tensor renormalization group [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{12}, 120601 (2007)] flows of partition functions. We benchmark the method against theoretically known results for the square-lattice $q$-state Potts models, which includes first-order, weakly first-order, and continuous phase transitions, and find good agreement in all cases. We also compare against previous Monte Carlo results for the frustrated square lattice $J_1-J_2$ Ising model and find good agreement.
