Hydrawise for Android

Used to do exactly what it said. Now I’m never sure if my lawn will be watered.

It took a while but I did hear from tech support and was able to finally connect my phone to the Hydrawise app. I have not yet tried it. I hope after all the time to get connected, the app is easy to use.

The Hydrawise app tells you what it thinks it watered, but there’s nothing that actually determines the water came out of the nozzles. So things in my yard are dying, even though it says it’s been watering every night. Information on reports can be very deceiving. The good thing is, I can run the system zones from my phone and that’s how I have determined the system is not working. Would be great if there was either a flow meter feeding back to the app or some other way of knowing that water was actually coming out of the nozzles. I am on Wellwater, so there are no meters.

The old app allowed us as contractor or technicians and users to run all zones for two minutes or three minutes with 3 quick steps. New one doesn’t allow this without preprogramming every zone individually 2 or 3 minutes before running. Old app had a great calendar to see history for whole month what days system ran and what didn’t and why. New app has no calendar for month. Old app showed all my customers and who was connected or was not connected. Need to add these important features to new app.

Ever since the app was updated my controller will not stay connected to my WiFi countless troubleshooting and no solution
