### 1/5 — A loss of time

*2024-06-19*

I like the app it help me a lot but recently i am having trouble on turning zones “off to on”and the app says that is a pending instructor working on it and it don’t make sense because I am the only who can get access to my account and I am like why they don’t say for example “ loss connection with controller “ or something that makes sense

### 1/5 — iPad

*2023-09-26, version 5.3.0*

Just had this installed, told it ran well on iPad by several employees that installed system. Cannot even run a manual zone on an iPad. Needs to be reworked for the iPad big time. Regret the system all together

### 4/5 — New version is getting better

*2023-08-16*

Old review first, keep reading for update:

“When you re-designed this app, did you consider at all homeowners (non-landscape professionals) who rely entirely upon mobile applications to access SmartLink? Your “streamlining“ completely killed off my access to the logs I used regularly. I also need the app in order to use a hose here. I thank you for adding in more time choices than 5 friggin minutes max, but I need you to add still more, 15 mins, 20 mins, etc. Thank goodness my iPad doesn’t automatically update applications or I’d completely have lost access to logs that I value, but I don’t feel like lugging my iPad around the property every time I need to water.”

 Update: since the “Programming: Make remote changes to controllers” option went from “coming soon” to being available, I was pleased to find that my logs are now available in that section! Thank you. I also like that I can now turn the system off via the app. I have noticed that I don’t get errors when I send my commands to the controller. Well, maybe random errors here and there but nothing like before this version. The cleaner “run manual zone” interface is pretty good, I’ve learned to appreciate it I would request if you could add a bunch more time options. I would like a 15 minute interval, at least.

### 1/5 — Ruined

*2023-07-25, version 5.0.3*

I can no longer control our systems with this app. I occasionally need to turn a controller on or off, but can no longer do this, or much of anything.

### 1/5 — Ruined it

### 1/5 — Email login broken

*2023-07-11, version 5.0.3*

Latest update does not fix email login, it used to take two attempts, now it doesn’t login at all.

### 1/5 — Please provide option to use old app version !!!

*2023-07-10*

The app version prior to this new release was fine the way it was. On prior version, Ability to run a zone or a program was quite simple and the reports layout was quite helpful. 

On new version, to run a zone you can only select for 2 min runtime, not helpful when troubleshooting or adjusting heads in a selected zone. 

Also not helpful to release a new version which has “coming soon” for features that already was working on prior version…delay release until all prior features are functional on new version. 

I see there is a way to use the old app interface by selecting Programming  options; therefore strong request, please keep ability to use old app setup as that is a much better all around in my view …

### 1/5 — Total Failure

*2023-07-06, version 4.20*

This app worked great prior to this update - all functionality has been disabled in this update.  Very frustrating!

### 1/5 — Downgrade

*2023-07-02, version 4.20*

What happened to the old app? This is a total downgrade. Why change what was a good system. For the cost of the clocks vs what the app is now, not worth it. Two thumbs down

### 2/5 — Big Fail, Guys

*2023-07-02*

Poor software release, guys.  I can tell you’re working on it, but virtually nothing that worked last month is working now.

I have to control everything from the box.

Bug Fixes

Zone photos not deleted offline — Photos removed from zone issues while offline were still appearing after sync. Fixed.
Zone settings Save button missing — Switching to the Runtimes tab while editing zone settings hid the Save button and prevented location changes from saving. Fixed.

Inspection search bar hidden on load — The search bar on the inspection list was only visible after scrolling down and back up. Fixed.
Offline inspection showing blank screen — Opening a cached inspection while offline showed a blank screen instead of saved data. Fixed.
Empty state missing on inspection list — When a controller had no inspections, the empty state was not displayed. Fixed.
Keyboard "Done" button not visible on Android — When adding a photo caption, the Done button to dismiss the keyboard was hidden unless the hardware back button was tapped. Fixed.
