PROGRAMS. "NOTES" FIELD

Javier NM
Updated at 2023-11-02 07:49:07 UTC 

I am using Netro software with a Sprite-6 controller. After some moths use I am delighted with the system. The tools it provides help me a lot controlling my garden, with good results. Congratulations. Normaly I use three out of my four zones in Smart (advanced) mode, and the fourth one in Smart (Basic).

I would be useful if we could have a field (name it "Notes" or similar) so that we could enter useful information about the use of each individual program (for example, "I reduced frecuency to alternate days after Oct 15th", or other information. 

Not having that field causes useful feedback not to be available when managing programs.

Thank you.

The app is full of useless things

MAKE IT SIMPLE AND FAST!


- not possible to run multiple valve at the same time

- app and webapp full of useless things such as the BIG clock in the schedule attached

- interface full of too many things. I dont care about smart watering. why my screen should be full of that?

- setting full of useless things.

- apps should be fast and simple, if you focus on professionals. If you focus on housewives is another story.

- example of ewelink

- not possible to run all the time you want. max 60 minutes. Edit program full of things again. 

- under zone there should be the possibility to add the schedule. why you are making an extra menu?? Zone 1 --> prog1 -->start h8.00; finish h.10:00

Alexa Skill

Louise Brinkman
Updated at 2023-10-13 01:00:17 UTC 
Are there any plans to update the Alexa Skill? ... it's over a year and a half since the skill's been released and does need some urgent attention. One being to be able to run a saved program via Alexa and not just one single zone.  Hugely important.  The other (and quite annoying) is how it is coded into your skill to have Alexa ask "what else can I do for you?" over and over (and it is not Alexa but your skill)..this causes freezing on the Echo Show display so even if one does want Alexa to "do" something it does not respond...again, not Alexa, but your skill. Presently, one has to tell Alexa "goodbye" wait for at least a minute, before using my Show for another purpose...I have follow up turned off on all my devices in my Alexa settings.  No other skill causes Alexa to respond this way - freezing and "what else can I do".  It is unnecessary and needs to be removed for the reasons stated.  Can you advise when the skill will be updated?  Many customers, like myself, purchased your controller because of the Alexa compatibility which presently is very minimal.  Not all of us want to whip out a phone to run a program which is why we have Alexa & Google devices in the first place.  The IOS app has been updated, but the Alexa skill sadly has not.  Thank you in advance and eagerly await your reply,  kind regards

Hub with more than 1 timers

Kay Fluhr
Updated at 2023-10-08 07:46:18 UTC 

Dear netro team

I have a  hub with more than 1 timers. But via the app it is only possible to manage 1 of the 2 timers. Is this a bug. So I can't explore the second timer timer and therefore I can also not get the data via API, because I can't see the MAC or Serial No. Can you please help here?

I solved the problem.

2 zonas funcionando a la vez?

Updated at 2023-09-30 18:53:13 UTC 

No consigo que la aplicación permita 2 zonas activas a la vez. Solo funciona de manera secuencial (Zona 1, luego Zona 2, luego Zona 3, etc).

Yo necesito activar 2 a la vez para regar y abonar al mismo tiempo.

Alguien tiene una solución por favor?

Purchasing Whisperer in the UK

Phil Middleton
Updated at 2023-09-30 12:48:53 UTC 

Hi, A few months back I purchased 2x Whisperer sensors and paid the shipping from America. However when they arrived a couple of days later and they had been sent from a UK address not from America. I was a bit annoyed at the time knowing I had paid $25 delivery but the were sent from the UK. You currently have an offer on these sensors is it possible to purchase them in the UK yet and claim the discount?

Kind regards

Phil
