User Reviews

Users appreciate that the Melnor BT app requires no account, connects quickly via Bluetooth, and offers flexible scheduling for their watering devices. However, multiple reviews highlight persistent Bluetooth connectivity problems, frequent app crashes when managing valves, and inconsistent saving or display of settings. The interface is considered clunky and buggy, with limited functional features like flow monitoring and rain delay options. Despite reliable hardware operation, the app's usability issues diminish overall user satisfaction.

Pros

No account is needed to use the app, enhancing privacy and ease of use.
The app allows for quick and easy Bluetooth connection with the watering device.
The scheduling feature is intuitive and flexible, including options to schedule by day or frequency.
The hardware works reliably when connected, providing effective automated watering.
The app has a simple permission requirement, mainly Nearby Devices, and accesses files only when changing pictures.

Cons

Frequent connectivity issues with Bluetooth, including slow connections and loss of connection at short distances.
App crashes when selecting or customizing valves, making it difficult or impossible to manage watering settings.
Settings sometimes do not save or appear incorrectly after being set, leading to confusion and inconsistent behavior.
The app interface is described as clunky, buggy, and not user-friendly, with poor handling of labels and program data.
Lack of features such as flow usage monitoring and difficulties with rain delay and master control functions, needing improvement in user experience.

I used to have no problem connecting, now it takes forever. I have to get right in front of it to get four bars, if I have two bars and it shows the area, when I hit open a valve again it takes forever and that page doesn't appear. In the rear case where it appears and I open a valve, when I walk away from it and I'm only like 10 15 ft away. It disappears and that valve stays open even if I instructed it to close.

This app does exactly what it needs to do. It is a bit clunky and not the most polished thing but it works. The only permission used is Nearby Devices. It never asked for anything else. If you want to change a picture it will ask for access to files because it's required to change the pic. Will sometimes lose connection to the timer but reconnects in a few seconds. No account needed. Connected to my 4 port timer and had my schedule set in under 5 minutes and easily 30 feet of range. Galaxy s21.
