### 4/5 — Does not keep time

*2026-08-01, version 9.4.1*

I think there is a firmware glitch as the Bluetooth watering suddenly switches from watering  at 6:30pm to midnight or 2am which disturbs my neighbour. The battery is new and in fact the event history shows the midnight watering. I suspect the days pause function may be the trigger

### 4/5 — Useful app to setup and monitor Gardena watering valve

*2026-08-01, version 9.4.1*

Would be useful to log soil moisture levels when used in conjunction with the moisture sensor

### 4/5 — Spart Zeit

*2026-07-12*

Das Gerät ist leicht zu installieren und spart Zeit. Die Bewässerung des Gewächshauses und des Gemüsegartens können nun geregelt zur optimalen Uhrzeit erfolgen, in der ich normalerweise noch im Bett liege. Mit der Timerfunktion muss ich mir keine Sorgen mehr machen, dass ich oder die Kinder vergessen den Hahn wieder zu abzudrehen. Es gibt lediglich zwei Minuspunkte: Die Bluetooth-Reichweite ist auf wenige Meter beschränkt, mehr als 4-5 sind es bei mir nicht. Und die Verschraubung aus Kunststoff für den Hahn wäre besser durch Metall zu ersetzen, beim festdrehen kann sie schnell brechen und als Ersatzteil bekommt man nur das ganze Gehäuse, was preislich nicht viel Unterschied zu einem komplett neuen Gerät ausmacht.

### 4/5 — Gardena Bluetooth App

*2026-07-10, version 9.3.2*

The Gardena Bluetooth App and my Sileno flex Robotic Lawnmower work amazingly well together. From installation and scheduling operation, to parking when done, Gardena has brought the future to my lawn maintenance making it fun and 
affordable.

### 4/5 — Works well but

*2026-05-22, version 9.2.0*

Works well but disappointing to find after purchase that only Bluetooth, needs another part to make remote smart costing over £100.

### 4/5 — J’aime bien.

*2026-05-21, version 9.2.0*

Fonctionnelle. J’ai mis quatre étoiles car il est un peu difficile d’ajuster la durée d’une coupe personnalisée. Il faut être précis dans ses gestes dans le déroulement des heures et minutes.

### 4/5 — K amin

*2026-05-19, version 9.2.0*

Good app, however the controls could be little better by wi-fi. The distance is very low in terms of connectivity.

### 4/5 — Does what is says on tin

*2026-05-09, version 9.2.0*

Works just fine…would also love WiFi connection to control remotely, but I get that you need other hardware for that

### 4/5 — Robot lawnmower

*2026-04-24, version 9.2.0*

App works and is useful

### 5/5 — Sehr gut

*2026-04-23*

Die Bedienung ist einfach und übersichtlich.

### 4/5 — Map?

*2026-04-19, version 9.2.0*

It would be nice to have a map of travel including the basic area it figures out over time.

### 5/5 — Gardena mini mow

*2026-04-17*

Love our bot. It keeps our backyard mowed very nicely.

### 4/5 — Their people make the difference!

*2026-03-19, version 9.1.0*

The app is acceptable but it is your people in customer service that make your product top notch!  They are always friendly, kind, and helpful whenever I call. I wish I could steer the mower to a location and then start a spot cut from there.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-02-28, version 9.0.1*

Fairly intuitive to program watering schedule. Watering pause is handy.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-02-22, version 9.0.1*

Make life easier when you’re at home or close by. You can monitor the mower easily.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect via Bluetooth

*2026-06-20, version 9.3.2*

Purchased smart dual water control. Despite trying everything I can think of, restarting phone, removing and re-pairing, etc, and searching Gardena website for support (waste of time - nothing…) I have had to give up. Will return unit to Amazon…

### 1/5 — Products sold for US market not available in the US app

*2026-04-16, version 9.2.0*

I purchased the Gardena Sileno Flex robotic mower to save time. When trying to connect it to the app I realized it’s not an available option in the app and therefore can’t use the mower. Now I have spent money, hours setting up the wires around my backyard, even purchased additional wires just to find out it’s not possible to connect to the app and so far support team has been contacted and going back and forth for weeks without any results. My backyard is turning into a jungle and I wasted money and time. Highly disappointed! 
Why do you sell lawn mowers that are not available in your App and therefore not working?!

### 1/5 — niks werkt

*2025-10-08, version 7.3.5*

dure smart city gekocht met smart systeem maar app weigert de machine

### 1/5 — Nem küld semmiről értesítést

*2025-09-03, version 7.3.1*

Elég ócska egy alkalmazás, időzítőt is kínlódás beállítani iphoneon, mindig elugrik a képernyő. Az h elakadást vagy bármi mást nem jelez külön gratula.

### 1/5 — No connection

*2025-07-16, version 7.3.0*

Can not connect to sileno city via bluetooth after update on Iphone

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2025-07-10, version 7.2.1*

This app is just barebones enough to get the mower running and set up a schedule. There’s no WiFi connection, it’s only Bluetooth, and no notifications or ability to restart the mower or anything like that. There’s developer apparently makes another app for those things, called the “Gardena Smart App”, but it isn’t available in the US.

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2025-03-10, version 7.0.1*

My system has been a constant issue. I’ve relaid the boundary wire twice and I still have a loop issue. The app tells me to create a new loop signal, however this can’t be found. Frustrated!!!

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2025-02-10, version 7.0.0*

Can’t use the mower unless you have the app. I can’t even get the app to work, because it crashes every time

### 1/5 — App Flash Crash

*2025-02-08, version 7.0.0*

App crashes when connecting with robot lawn mower.

### 1/5 — Totalne badziewie

*2024-07-08, version 6.1.1*

Kosiarki Gardena nadają się na smar do nart. Wiekszego badziewia nie da się wymyślić i wyprodukować. To badziewie ciągle zawiesza się i generuje błędy

### 5/5 — Gardena Bluetooth App is Very Helpful

*2026-07-06, version 9.3.2*

Love our bot. It keeps our backyard mowed very nicely.  And the app is very helpful and informative.

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2026-07-05, version 9.3.2*

This is a great piece of technology where you can operate in Bluetooth mode or when you have the WiFi gateway, through the internet. 
I have found that the operating distance allows me to control my timer from inside my house. 
Set up of timings etc is very easy, and you can see a history of operation. 
I am now going to order another for my other tap outlet. Perfect!
