User Reviews

Users praise remote smartphone control and easy Link2 setup, but repeatedly report stability and UX problems: poor, slow connections; an outdated interface; frequent login/password issues; and updates that don’t port old configurations or lose data. Overall sentiment is negative despite the core value of remote control.

Pros

Remote control of the sprinkler system via smartphone.
Link2 WiFi module enables easy WiFi setup and control.
Ability to control the system from anywhere (home or away).
Overall convenience of remote monitoring and adjustments.

Cons

Frequent connectivity issues: long to connect, unstable connections, and timeouts.
Outdated, non-intuitive, and clunky UI/UX; not very user-friendly.
Login/logout problems and password reset failures.
Updates not porting existing systems and causing loss of zone names or other data.
General reliability concerns including glitches and slow performance.

Recent reviews

The app starts but takes forever to get the data from the module. It’s not my wifi. Then it disconnects with a communication error after beginning to run a station. I have 50+ other IoT and mesh with zero issues so it’s not my network.

It would be awesome if there was a blowout mode. When planning a manual water, there could be a delay block that can be added. This would allow the compressor to catch up between zones.
