Do not update while away

I accepted the update request. The new version forgot my login info and now I cannot control the sprinkler. Their website does not reply to forgot userid and password link. I am away from the house. No chance of setting up again via bluetooth.

rainbird TM2 irrigation controller with wifi control

Sadly, the wifi link via app is very challenging, clunky and even then, very slow to connect via wifi, and it seems to have to re-establish a connection to wifi when swapping between pages of the app. Itโ€™s seems like a petty complaint, but honestly, itโ€™s actually very frustrating for something that should
be so straight forward and convenient.

Itโ€™s okay when it works

But is always slow. At times, cannot connect at all. Very hit or miss. Probably better than not having it, but not by much. I do most of my adjustments manually, sadly.

Works maybe 5% of the timeโ€ฆ

If it works itโ€™s good but it connects maybe 5 % of the time so itโ€™s just about impossible to adjust watering times or to skip a watering session.. extremely frustrating

Very delayed

Could use an update for more friendlier user face. Very slow to log in, pull up info, or execute a task.
