Ratings and reviews

Edited to update that it now works again. One star removed from previous review for pushing out a broken update however as that should have never happened. It created a lot of frustration for me (and many others) over a couple of days in mid-July when I really needed my sprinkler system working. Please test updates better to avoid such outages in the future. I will also likely keep this version indefinitely as it works for my needs and I'm afraid to have it break again.

Edit: Latest update corrected my problem. Really excellent turn-around! The app is back to being really awesome. Today's update broke all capability to connect to my open sprinkler. I can use a browser with the IP just fine. The app consistently fails to connect.

I doubt I would buy from this company again. Very unreliable products. I went to make an adjustment to my sprinkler programs today and it acts like I don't have any on my system. My mesh network is fine. My sprinkler controllers still have the same IP addresses. Scanning fails, showing no controllers. Luckily the current program seems to still run, but I want to make adjustments since it got to 111 today. I don't want to have to troubleshoot this system on a regular basis just to get it to work.
