Ratings and reviews

This used to be a great controller until recently. Weather adjust would automatically skip your scheduled watering if rain was expected. It was an included feature. Now you have to pay $30 for that feature. It's ridiculous to have to now pay for a feature I've been used to having for 3 years now!

I love being able to test my system while walking around my property and being able to stop & start it from my phone to make adjustments. As well as being tied into my local weather to stop or run depending on my actual weather. Also being able to run the system even when you aren't home, for example if you're traveling and you see your home area may need more watering, you can activate your system from anywhere!

This app is a disaster. I can't schedule the sprinklers to run once without creating a whole schedule for one day. Their "smart" schedules don't work for me here and it's very inflexible when you have to water on specific days. You can finally set a schedule to run on specific days that repeats annually, but the date picker doesn't work quite right. There are two or three different settings for how long to water for a zone and it's is really confusing. Needs lots of work
