Didn't work correctly out of the boxNice people at customer support but they have no idea how the product works
Contacted customer support, they advised me to go to their website
Wyze has gone silent on the customer support and has no interest in correcting this issue.
Also need some actual customer support
Customer support continues to ask me to reset the unit and verify (again and again, and AGAIN

The WYZE Sprinkler Controller is so far my favorite out of all the smart home products I have
Since I've connected it to my home wifi network and my phone's Bluetooth, there shouldn't be any reason why it's not adaptable to Smart home devices
This is my first Wyze product and I will add more of their products to my smart home setup in the future.
This whole wifi smart home device costs less than just the wifi module to add to your rainbird to make it smart
Now, I did not give full 5 stars because in the year 2021, when a product claims to be a "SMART" device, I think it needs to be integrated with smart home devices such as Echo and Google Home

I like the sleek look of this controller over the older box controller it replaced, but I especially like the ability to control the sprinklers using the app instead of turning it off/on at the base

Only tricky part was figuring out how to make use of the free year of smart service
Setting up the complimentary 1 year of sprinkler plus was easy, you simply set it and forget it as the service will automatically schedule the system based on weather patterns in your area.
I then went to activate the free year of “sprinkler plus” support, which comes with the unit
(2-year) replacement and the valves work fine.

This Wyze company clearly makes a TON of smart IOT devices.
The device itself works like a charm, it’s far from my WiFi network and picks up signal like it’s a foot from the router

This is my first Wyze product and I will add more of their products to my smart home setup in the future.
Setup was a little tricky, but eventfully worked well, very happy with the product and the price.this wasn't in issue for me, but if you are on a daily schedule such as watering every 3 days
Easy setup to replace previous controller that was hard to access

Some features I'm still trying to learn but great product at a great price!
I did not yet return the device as if I get pass the app hurdle, and the controller gets to deliver what it claims, then it is worth the hassle giving the very good price
I have grown to really love Wyze products as they offer really great value at a very reasonable price

Bottom line: for the price, this is an awesome sprinkler controller
An absolutely terrific sprinkler controller for the price
Pros:- easy to install,- smart features,- sprinkler plus- value for moneyCons:- schedule doesn’t work,- rain sensor not working skips every time citing rain skip due to sensor or the plus
But schedule doesn't work, sprinklers don't run even when the app says zone is watering

This app is incredible with so many features all for 57.98
I can’t say anything about the device yet as I could not pass the initial step of creating an account on the the app, which I can say is a worst app I have ever seen in my professional life
The App also lies about its communications with the controller for manual control
The app is really easy to navigate and set up zone times for watering.
SO the App LIES when it says that it told the controller to turn on watering and that the controller acknowledged the command

I was not interested in the smart water automated as i would be worried of software bugs not watering my garden when on vacation
Not sure I would trust its smart watering - bugs in its ap software or its server software could stop watering for some weeks while on vacation and it could kill my garden
smart watering is great, it breaks up my 45min water into 3 parts for each station so that it allows water to absorb before completing the 45 minutes
This was to check how well the intelligent water system would work
Check the sprinkler - no water - but this worked 5 minutes ago!

You can also turn it on and off when needed if the schedule is not enough
I'm giving this 1 star because it fails at the most basic function with no way to fix it: the system keeps running the schedule even though the schedule is disabled
All it says is one line that it has fixed, smart and off line scheduling ,but no instructions on how to do any of the 3
But I signed up for the Sprinkler plus and got my Smart schedules set up in the app

But an everyday non-engineer would have returned the unit at one or more of those deadly sins
Deadly sin 2: every configure app needs to allow the customer to skip steps: I’m not going to mount the damned thing until I know that it works
Deadly sin 1: do not force your customers to download your software multiple times
Deadly sin 4: don’t have selling-point features fail to activate
