Won’t last and annoying setting

Annoying with all the different settings..I spent more time programming that actually watering my plants..my last one didn’t last two years..

App stopped working

Timer has new batteries. When I click the timer to change the settings now nothing happens. Just says “loading” and then crashes. It has been like this for about a year now…

Doesn’t work half the time.

I’ve had to uninstall/reinstall dozens of times in the last few months. The only reason I have this dumb app is because I need it for work. Get different timers.

Cannot program to water « only once tomorrow at 8am »

Works. A good selection of options to customize watering, but I need the option « once only » as a watering frequency.

bluetooth doesnt work

weakest bluetooth connection! I am already in front of the menor machine and blue tooth still doesnt work!!!! uselesss!!!!!

How ridiculous

What as useless app. It’s not that intuitive, but the fact that it is a Bluetooth connection the minute you take your phone out of range of the unit it disconnects… dunno about you but I don’t sit by my outside tap location …

Bluetooth connect is weak

Great app when it works but I have to repeatedly try to connect with my device before it properly communicates and then it often looses connection within a few seconds again.
Even when within 15-20 feet of unit, i hover between 1 and 2 bars of signal.

Only good for a year

Was great in the beginning, although a bit archaic. Went to connect this morning, and it sees both of them, yet won’t connect to turn on/off. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!

Poorly designed app

Not friendly at all and unfortunately not intuitive. There are no areas that you can identify as “tap here” to edit a program.

Big flaw on the “delay” function. It goes on automatically after a manual watering (no idea why, as one may want to continue with the program after an unscheduled watering) but the biggest problem is that the delay does not turn off after 24hs. So it never waters! It assumes that ther is a constant delay.
Fix it soon please.

Total Crap

WHEN it works in your WiFi, you still have to be with 10 inches of the device to work it. We put men on the moon and this is the best automated water time in the market. Pathetic.
