RainPoint WifiWater Timer
Complicated & No Pairing 9/10 times. Jury is out.
Excellent - Had to Leave a Review
I’m not one to leave reviews but I had to on this one due to the two star rating I saw when I went to download it. I don’t know why those people were having issues, but this app works great. Seriously. Adding devices was easy and the app works as intended with zero issues. I can control my sprinklers from anywhere on my phone and it works every time. It’s made my life a whole lot easier.

Non functioning
The HTV157B appears online in the app.
* Tapping the timer on the Home screen opens only a blank screen.
* In the Plan section, tapping Repeat causes the app to crash and close every time.
* I cannot create, edit, or delete watering plans.
* The Home screen still displays a “Next Plan,” but I cannot manage it.

App don't work
App won't let me log in
Interesting how the RP app doesn’t support RP devices
Doesn’t support some legacy RainPoint water controllers…you should never remove support for your own branded products - especially when you support other brands…
Crazy
Does not work with the RainPoint TTP106W - This needs fixing!
Doesnt Work
Doesnt work - app unhelpful in debugging or instruction - most recent “fixing some bugs” unfortunately was not enough
Doesn’t open
I’ve just bought a water timer and I haven’t managed to set it up yet as the app gets stuck when I try to register. It times out or won’t load which is clearly a common issue based on other reviews. Rubbish when it’s a key part of your product!
Doesn’t work
The app doesn’t work, meaning the product is useless. Can’t use the timer without the app and it just won’t open. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still won’t even open up. Quite disappointing that the app control is supposed to be the main attraction and it doesn’t work! Likely will have to return the product

A decent app.
Overall, RainPoint Home is a decent app. It brings moisture sensors and irrigation controllers together nicely. My only complaint is that the app only allows you to be logged in on a single device. If I open the app on my iPad, after being logged in on my iPhone, I have to login again. This really needs to be fixed.

Fix the start up issue
App is fine and user friendly but having to start the app 5-6 times before it eventually loads is not acceptable for a product that requires an app to operate it
The worst app
I cannot believe how bad this app is. Totally useless.
Just doesnt work
Simply doesnt work…not sure if there is more to say!
Made something so simple so complicated
The rainpoint WiFi controller is great but this app is a disaster. Awful user experience making it difficult and complex to set schedules. This should be so simple but they somehow made it so difficult. I’ll give it two stars because it actually somewhat works which I can’t say about the orbit bhyve.

Absolute Garbage
The app will not stay connected to devices, locks up and many options do not work. Avoid these products and app.
Rainpoint
The app is such keep telling me my network signal poor not the network this app need more work
Good … when it starts
It actually does the job but it fails to start 9/10 times just sits on the green launch screen doing nothing
Also the “do not frequently operate the device” warning is very annoying. Sometimes you switch on, realise there’s an issue and switch off to fix the issue and then can’t switch back on due to this warning. We’re adults we can make the decision how often to turn the water off and on

Set-Up
So far the set-up of the app and the devices have worked out well. I was a little worried when I saw the ratings.
I was able to manually trigger the valves and setup some schedules for the sprinklers and gardens. I even did a task to delay based on % of precipitation predictions.
I will come back later if needed but right everything is working out as intended.

Unusable even with tech support
Tech insisted I use a Gmail account and that just landed me in password hell. I am debating whether to just use it in manual mode or just trash it and get something else. Fix the dang registration bugs!
Does not work for all Rainpoints
This app is not compatible with older Rainpoint devices. I tried multiple times using different methods to include an older device to no avail. It connected instantly using the older Tuva app. If the item is not pictured on the add device screen, it will not work with this app
