Ratings and reviews

App seems to work okay; I don't generally have issues with it not connecting. My main complaint is that when your selected/running program has built in "soak" periods, it doesn't necessarily tell you in the notifications - it just says it completed. So I get 14 notifications because it will water, then soak, then water, then soak, then water each zone. Otherwise, it seems to be okay.

I hate this app. Rain Bird 1.0 was slow but worked GREAT when it worked. I really like it. Rain Bird 2.0 is very much more reliable but the navigation is just not good. What I really dislike about it is it logs you out at the most important times. It's raining and I just want to check the settings and I've been logged out again! Such a waste of time and a real pain. Seriously...

I spent a lot of time and effort with the Rainbird support to make this app (v1.3.1) work. It may fail miserably to update the firmware of the LINK2 wifi module of the ESP-ME3 controller and, as a result, fail to connect the module to the local wifi network unless the cellular network is disabled. I have a lot of IoT devices and do not remember that I ever was required to disable cellular network to connect a device to my wifi network.
