Balboa Worldwide - Spa Control

Balboa Water Group

About this app

The Balboa Worldwide App (bwa™), is an app for your Android® device that allows you to access your hot tub via a direct connection anywhere in the local proximity of your tub, anywhere in your house that you can connect to your local WiFi network, or anywhere in the World you have an internet connection to your smart device via 3G, 4G, or WiFi hot spots.

With the bwa™ app, you can ensure that your hot tub will be ready whenever you want to take a dip. Instead of going outside and pressing buttons on the topside panel, the app lets you start the tub and change settings from your smartphone or tablet.

The App provides full interface control so you can set the temperature, turn pumps on and off and even set filtration cycles.

Ratings and reviews

It was actually really easy to connect to and get set u on the home wifi. App is fairly intuitive and easy to use. The trailer video is actually a user guide that is very helpful but needs to be updated to the latest software version. I'm assuming people are having issues don't understand they need to turn off mobile data on their phone and connect to the Balboa wifi first, to then set up connectin to home wifi. Videos or video links on your website would be good. Overall very happy with this

The app is refusing to connect if other phone is connected. It doesn't connect automatically - need to go through menu each time. To see the current setting it needs touch screen each time - which is stupid. To set global access I need to open actual hot tub to get to the wi-fi module to see the #. All items above should be obvious showstoppers when the app was tested. Cloud connect refuses to login. Security questions don't match ones for setup.

Unable to connect via cellular data, although the UI seems to be much better then previous versions; still have an issue with this product. I can now connect via WiFi, but if I'm off WiFi, I'm unable to access the spa. Doesn't make much sense to only be able to access this via WiFi. And now the app drops/crashes for no reason and says it can't connect, the WiFi strength is "full strength" at the spa. Our WiFi tv has no issue maintaining its connection yet this app can't. T..R..A..S..H!
