Ratings and reviews

The mower is great but the app could use some updates. For example, you walk the perimeter of your zone to set it with the mower, and then it automatically adds a buffer that ranges from 6 inches to 3 feet with no ability to adjust except manually adjusting every point on the map. This makes narrow pathways impassable by the mower even when there's plenty of space. If you make an edit, even to a zone the mower isn't working on, it resets and starts all over again.

What happened to this app? How did it go from working great 99% of the time to all of the sudden completely useless? Seriously, the app is useless right now. My mower is connected, then it's not cause of a firmware install, then it is again, then it's not. Notifications are also just gone? Just go back to the old app please and revise your dev/op practices before launching a version that is clearly still in beta.

The interface on the mower is pretty clunky, not 'back friendly'. The app, which we mostly use, is great! Only used a few weeks so far. Rarely unresponsive, or unable to send commands to the mower. Really love the details. The push notifications are audible on our old LGs, and have gotten us out of bed to handle problems. GPS is only about a min delayed, so it's easy in the dark to know the general direction to head when finding the mower. Usually exactly the last know position.
