[X] Hydrawise Customer Insights

1. The slider bars makes it virtually impossible to do anything on the trigger screen without inadvertently changing a setting, only to realize days or weeks later when the system won't water unless manually initiated...Love the Hunter HydroWise we manage over 150 hyderwise counts.

2. There's no indication of that limitation in the process of uploading pictures, which is an example of the less-than-thoughtful design overall.The app doesnt allow you to set a second time in the day to water an addition 10 minutes for areas of new sod.

3. Instructions are confusing and it's difficult to set up different programs (for example: a program for watering after reseeding should have brief cycles twice a day to keep seeds wet but not oversaturate the ground).

4. Tried multiple times, rebooting controller, unplugging, and it continues to give an error "can not connect to device, please try again." Support is slow to respond and offers little in the way of addressing the issue.

5. Damn near impossible to change the schedule at all, much less when needed.I am a professional contractor exploring the app and the feasibility of the Hydrawise program.

6. I spent a year dialing in all of the triggers, it took many iterations, partially due to the fact that everytime I change one setting, I would accidentally change a different setting.

7. That alone makes the app almost useless for me, because I still have to run to the controller in the garage if I don't want something to get wet, and I'm obviously out of luck if I'm away from home.The app is functional and stable, and my system has worked consistently for a year now.

8. Making schedule changes and updates to dialing the water for individual customers it's very easy.

9. Find the app very easy to use to help manage the watering needs of all of our customers.

10. Some features in automatic mode are completely missing: "Morning Dew Off" or Syringyng can be only executed in manual mode in order to bypass any additional sensor.

11. The biggest issue I've had, is that if you need to change the timing of the zones while they're in use, the app ignores you and goes about it's business.
