Vista I like the concepts but frustrating
Vista I like the concept but frustrating.
I redid my landscaping and got a lot of fancy landscaping. I got the Vista timer and it looks good when it's on. My issue is the Wi-Fi goes off every couple weeks and I got a fiddle and it's kind of complicated and frustrating.
My advice, please make it much easier apple style.

Schedule problems
App appears to conflict with itself when turning on each zone or following a schedule. Will not follow a schedule when zones are either all on or all off regardless of actual time of day. App has not been updated in years while iOS has gone through multiple generations. Support is nonexistent from the developer.

No integrations
While this app turns the lights on and off on a schedule and manually, that is the absolute minimum acceptable level of functionality. No Alexa or Apple or Smatthings or any home automation integrations. And no conditional scheduling. For example, "only turn on the lights of my device is present," or if it's not raining.
No updates to the app in ages. I'm really disappointed.

Scheduled time not working well
Over the last 6 months or so, the outdoor landscape lights sometimes do not turn on or turn off at the scheduled time. I’ve reached out to the company twice and have gotten no replies whatsoever. As others have said, the app was last updated 2+ years ago so I’m not sure they’re in business anymore.
Mixed results
We don’t have any connection issues, and setup was relatively straightforward. But, we do have issues with the timer settings. I have one zone that goes on at sunset and off at sunrise. Another zone goes on at sunset and is supposed to go off at 11:00. I frequently wake up and the zone that is supposed to go off at 11:00 is still on. I’d say it works about 50% of the time. If anyone has a solution, I’m interested. The dimming and other functions seem to work well.
I’m a little worried about long term support seeing that the most recent app update was two years ago. Knowing that, I might not have purchased this system. I worry they won’t update the app to work with a future iOS.
