Buggy, slow and horrible connectivity
Horrible connectivity even with a dedicated strong 2.4 GHZ connection. Often the app never even connects to the device, it’s ridiculous. Shocking that RainBird still hasn’t come up with a better functioning app yet.
My latest issue with the app is that it has changed all of my scheduled time duration settings and I had no idea. I always use the adjustment % slider to increase or decrease the duration per zone depending on the temperature and season. Yet the app randomly changed my master settings, so instead of a station running at adjusted 40% length of my programmed 20 minutes (which would equate to 8 minutes), it changed the master setting(s) per zone to only 8 minutes and then still is scheduled to run at 40% adjustment of that…about 3 minutes per zone!
Why would the app change all my presets!?!?

Controller Problem
Difficult and slow to connect
WiFi Issues
My unit is showing full strength WiFi signal but connecting via the app is so hit and miss. It usually times out and connects maybe one in ten times. Very frustrating. It says the signal strength is good when I’m connected and my router is 2.4ghz. The app itself is great once connected.
Cloud based control
I have a hard time getting this to run manually. I set the zone for the amount that I want, then I get the “loading” wheel of death till it quits. I had the previous version that wasn’t cloud base and controlled it perfectly. Don’t want the cloud, don’t care for it. Give me an option to check out of the cloud to run my controller cloudless.
