Easy to set up

System nice and easy to set up. Instructions on the app were really clear. No fuss.

The only problem that I’ve encountered is that the app does not let you skip the need to purchase or install a hub. You have to close the app down and restart to avoid this.

App Needs an update

I am currently using 2 of the Bhyve Gen 2 hose faucet irrigation controller/wifi units. I love them. I love being able to control everything with the app. WHAT I DON'T LOVE about the app, is you can't see and control multiple units together. Examples: The calendar will only show information 1 device at a time. You are unable to toggle between controllers. You must go all the way back HOME and switch to the other device. Then go back to the calendar to see that devices information.
You must do this for programming each device as well. You cannot toggle between devices to program. You must go back to HOME, switch the device, then back to program.
Under the My Bhyve tab you can see all of your devices but you are unable to tap on the device to do anything. You can't program units, no program info for what has been programmed, no watering info, no calendar, etc. You only see the device firmware, wifi connection, system on/off, etc.

I have to admit I am super impressed with it a lot of options plenty of zones and zone programming options. so far using it all summer it has worked great. Highly recommend it.

FAQ

What does the B-hyve app do?

The B-hyve app allows you to remotely control and monitor your smart sprinkler system from anywhere in the world. It offers smart watering features that use local weather data and plant information to create optimized watering schedules, helping to conserve water and reduce costs. You can also set custom watering programs and use an integrated irrigation audit tool.

How does the smart watering feature work?

When in smart watering mode, the app utilizes local weather data to determine watering needs. It accounts for evaporation, transpiration, and rainfall forecasts to adjust schedules automatically. It also considers factors like soil type, plant type, sun exposure, and slope to ensure efficient watering directly to the roots and prevent runoff.

Is the B-hyve app free to use?

The B-hyve app is free to download and use. However, it is designed to work with specific B-hyve smart sprinkler timers and Hydro-Rain B-hyve Pro controllers. While the app itself is free, the functionality is tied to the hardware purchase, and there may be in-app purchases for additional features or services.

What kind of devices is the B-hyve app compatible with?

The B-hyve app is compatible with the Orbit B-hyve Smart Wifi Sprinkler Timer and the Hydro-Rain B-hyve Pro Wifi Controller. It is designed for use on smart devices, allowing for remote control and monitoring of your sprinkler system.

Can I use the app if I prefer to set my own watering schedule?

Yes, the app offers a 'WeatherSense' feature that allows you to set custom programs for your watering schedule. While you have full control over how you want to water, this feature still leverages local weather data to override watering in case of rain, ensuring your system doesn't water unnecessarily.
