Excellent system. Awesome!!!
This version is easier to use
Intuitive and quick this latest version is great
Improved App but not everything is as good as it was
The watering reports section of the new app is terrible. Please bring back the look and functionality of the old app watering reports.
App is ok. Doesn’t turn off if even if it rained in morning.
I use it for predicting off - but it miss it most of the time. Today its raining cats and dogs and still it was planning to water. It has full access to weather.
muy buena app
Gracias a la Apple por tener esta aplicación disponible
Great system.
App is awesome
It fixes everything!
I had to replace the brains for the hunter ICC that I had when I purchased the house. When it was working, the unfortunate thing living on an acre of land with one controller, I would turn on a valve at the controller, go inspect that area, which meant having to walk all the way to the top area near the fence, walk down to the controller turn it back off. Do the repairs and then have to turn it back on, walk back up to the area to make sure it was fixed, and possibly have to do it all over again
Not friendly to use
Not natural to use
Not like most (99%) apps. Need to hire all new app guys like from Apple to fix all. Can’t change each zone watering time. For example if you want the zone to water 10 min in the morning you can’t change the time for the afternoon
Schedule reports
I found the reports in the old version very clear and useful. You could see a color coded presentation on a weekly or monthly basis to get a clear picture. The old version also showed the current schedule projected into the future weeks. New and “improved” version falls short. Who approved the deleted features in the new version.
Unable to take a photo
I have read instructions online and cannot find the camera icon.
Excellent Product
The controller is excellent and very easy to setup
Performs well, easy to use
My contractor picked the timer/controller. I’ve had previous experience with a Rainbird timer and it was really difficult to use their Wi-Fi app. This Hunter app is much more straightforward - easy to understand, easy to set up programs.
App not working
Like the app, but recently seems to have bug issues. It continues to show all future water activity reports as all defaulting to aborted due to high rain - even with no rain in the forecast. Hope the get this fixed.
Easy to use
Seeding so am watering once one programs ad once early evening. Once you the hang of it you can do it from everywhere
No real water measurements
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
Update
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.
Well
This version is a poor ‘upgrade’,the first version was quite good and reliable. This version not so,specifically does not know if the controller has been set to run a specific zone so conflicts arise. Also, zones can set be and appear to be working when in fact they are not.
Do the programmers ever use the app ???

App communication spotty
Frustrating when app won’t talk to controller. Out fixing irritation issues and always dealing with starting a station and app won’t work, confirm WiFi is up and signal strong and nothing happens. Why is this so flaky?
