Timers don’t work
The only reason to use this app, to set up and program timers, doesn’t work. Set up a timer and it just doesn’t register. Turns the pump off when it’s supposed to run
Pump timer auto turns off
Timers are set and used to work. Now, when I check to why the pump isn’t turning on per timer the slide is off. Reverts to on and when I check right back it’s off to on - so forth and so on. Timer simply quit working. Otherwise, good app.
Awesome and will keep using it.
I think this is awesome I mean it’s so hard to find a pool pump that you can control wireless on it self and not spend the extra money on an accessories to control the system, so yes I can’t be away from my house when using the app But I can be in my house and or even sitting out on my back patio and use the application.. It wouldn’t be safe if I could just turn it on while I’m gone thats why there’s a control panel on the pump it self.. So For One We Love this app and The jacuzzi brand of products..

Awesome App - In-Ground Variable Speed Pool Pump.
The App works great. I just bought the JVX-300 Variable Speed Pool Pump (Bluetooth) and love it.
Pros on App - 4 customizable timers, customizable Priming settings, ability to change the RPMs to your likings, customizable RPM setting on preset buttons (low, medium, high). Option to switch from Automatic to manual mode. While in “Auto” mode, you can select the preset set speed (low, medium, high) and it will run until the next timer setting.
Cons on App - have to be with in proximity of the pump to access through Bluetooth. The timers configuration start and end time are within 12am to 12am. There is no bug issue it’s just app limitation/ configuration. There is a workaround when using multiple timers.
Even though you have to be close to the pool pump, I can still access within the house. This is better than going your pool equipment and trying to change any setting manually at the pump. Other reviews are forgetting what Bluetooth means and it’s limitations.
Suggestions: It would be awesome to have access to the pool pump remotely (wifi) without using an expensive external Automated system. I would like to have the option to turn off/on the pump during High Electricity Spikes in Houston when I’m away from home (currently using Griddy as my Electricity Provider). Another great feature that will blow the competition away is to provide the kWh usage per Hour, Day, Month and Year. Also have a month to month comparison graph chart.
And make this IFTTT compatible!!!!!!

Timer bug
As another review mentioned, the timer bug still exists. You can not start a timer in the PM and have end in the AM via the app. When you set it at the pump, and you connect via the app for any reason, it disables the invalid timer at the pump and you’ll have to go and manually rest the timer at the pump. We run our pump at night in the colder months, so this timer bug is a big issue. Emailed jacuzzi about it, and never received any response.

Beware of bug
This app mostly works, but there’s a nasty bug. You can’t set a timer that starts in the pm and ends in the am, e.g., 8pm - 12am. You can do this at the pump, but if you open the app after setting it at the pump, it will mark the timer “invalid” which disables it. This bug caused my pool to turn green per I wasn’t running the pump long enough. It cost me a lot of time and money to fix my pool’s chemical levels. For now, I set my pump to run from 8pm to 11:45pm on high and 12am to 8am on medium. I hope this bug is fixed soon.

No updates in over a year
Still have to be close to the pump to connect. Kinda defeats the purpose of remote control. Once you get the timers set it works ok. But trying to set any schedule until midnight does not work. Vendor obviously doesn’t care too much about this app.
Great App
I love the app, it has great features and I can control the pump from my house.
No Timer Functions
This app is incredible but the pictures show a “TIMER” function and there is in not one available yet. Please update soon!
What is the purpose of this app?
We just had a new Jacuzzi Pump installed and they told us to download this app. The biggest problem with this app is that I have to be near the pump for it to work. Why would I want an app to operate the pump when I have to go outside to the pump to use the app. If I have to do that then I might as well just you the control panel on the pump. When I am in the house the app tells me the pump is disconnected and will not connect.
Now, if it were to work it has some nice features. So because of that I gave it a 2 star rating.
