Fantastic product
Love it sooo much
Simple to set up and runs very quietly
I have a odd shaped lawn with flower beds on three sides. The OTO was able to set up a program to water my front using four different zones. It seems very efficient.
Buggy app
The weather sensing functionality doesn’t work, sometimes it doesn’t water according to the schedule and you’re not notified. Now you can’t even water manually because their backend systems are faulty.
Love OTTO
It is a great tool and saves me so much time and worry.
Best purchase!
It has been so simple to use and we love it!! Couldn’t be happier. We have one for the backyard and one for the front yard
New scheduling update is confusing
I liked the app better when you could set watering frequency based on each output. The scheduling system is confusing and was implemented poorly
My best buy this summer!
Fast to install and very easy to use! Love it!
Great product!
So easy to use
Great sprinkler
All I had to do was set 4 points and the sprinkler did the rest.
great app
Love the OTO, fully automatic
Great! Needs better weather reads
I love these little robots so much. The app is easy to use, I think my only thought is that the weather report it uses is wrong half the time and I have to override a skip or cancel a water when it’s actively raining.
The best!
Have had it since they came a few years ago and still loving them!
Amazing sprinkler
This sprinkler is amazing
Latest update is confusing (July 2026)
We have 3 oTo devices. Bought the first about two years ago. I’m in Silicon Valley and we are techie and love our gadgets. I appreciated and enjoyed using the app to water my plants while
I was overseas! I also set my oTo devices to water at set schedules. So easy! HOWEVER, the latest update is so difficult to understand. I can’t find anything and don’t understand where I am in the app. Am I in a schedule that applies to one zone? Or am I in a schedule that shows all zones? I don’t know what I’m doing anymore. So I guess my garden will be randomly watered at random intervals using a random amount of water each time. It used to be so easy to use.

It does what it advertised
Great product
so convenient!
Never having to mess with setting up the lawn to water by moving a sprinkler 500 times has been amazing. Saves me so much time and mental energy!
Good but not great.
The Oto app is arguably better than many 'smart' irrigation competitors. (An industry locked in the past).
Creating zones and schedules is simple - The intelligence seems largely focused in the automated watering system itself, which calculates how and where to send the stream.
The watering planning in the app could be much improved by adding more information to inform the user what may be recommended. Imagine if you could set plant types for the zones, where the app would calculate recommended watering rates based on your regional zone and weather. (Rather than the simplistic water/don't water based on rain or wind)
That said, the app is smooth and functional. The ability to set up zones is really nifty and EASILY justifies the cost of this unit versus antiquated competitors. Seriously, this single unit covers 10 different watering zones each of which would require 2-10 sprinkler heads and far too much digging.
However, the main lack with this app is information relevant to the system: How much water has been used, what is the inlet pressure (esp how that may fluctuate during runs), gpm, runtime, etc. For a self-contained smart system costing nearly $500, it's missing a number of capabilities that seem worth that price point. Do I need 0.000 accuracy? Naw, but give me a rough total gallons report and usage history so I can monitor the system over seasons/years at least.
Overall, would buy again. Wish it had a bit more 'intelligence' but at least it outperforms the competition by a mile.

Godsend
this is what my yard needed and i'm greatful
Love
Just love this. I reclaimed hours of my life.
Easy morning
So far it has been amazing to own. Can set timer for it to go off from the phone and additional watering if needed. So much better than dragging hose and making multiple trips in the morning.
