Excellent App with pool pump

Works with my pool pump 1.5 HP scheduler for a few years ; perfect with wi fi from remote locations , even from outside the USA . Wish they could only have a small update where you can just turn the scheduler on /off without deleting the set times; otherwise it does its job really well.

Excellent

Thank you for this fantastic app! It works perfectly for the eco plugs that I use all over my house. This app is a great replacement for the previous WiON app that has been discontinued. Excellent app that works flawlessly. Thank you developers for this great application!

No updates

I have a programmable timer for my pool. I’ve had it for the last several years and it has worked fine. I started noticing last pool season the timer was not going off when it was supposed to. It wasn’t shutting off it was supposed to. Now it doesn’t work at all through the app. There has not been an app update in several years. That I’m aware of.
