Whisperer should correct sprite inaccuracies

Douglas Ely
Updated at 2022-08-02 10:30:54 UTC 
I have areas of the lawn that are consistently brown during the summer. I bought a whisperer to tell sprite to correct itself but it doesnt seem to do that. If the soil moisture that is estimated by the Netro app is incorrect, why doesnt the whisperer update the algorithm? Example: I have tried to set the soil moisture to 80% low to 100% high.  The grass on the customers property is brown and they are not happy. When I check the app, The whisperer says that the soil moisture is 63% but the app says that the next watering is scheduled for 22 hours? It also needs to be able to keep a greatly increased watering schedule until it corrects the problem. It is getting hard to work with this.

Dark mode/ font update?

Kirk Davis
Updated at 2022-08-03 13:48:59 UTC 
Hoping to find out if dark mode and more legible fonts for the light gray in the interface will be more noticeable at some point. Hey this is the only app I have difficulty reading a font that size. Can you at least make it black instead of super light gray? Seems like a pretty quick change. Dark mode I’m sure is more difficult, so an interim step would be appreciated. Any idea when the next release will be out?

Can’t set my WU to my weather station. It says invalid like others have experienced. The Netro rain numbers are WAY off. For example, 7/31/2022 shows as .24 inches of rain. Both my stations show .83 and .85 respectively. Could you please set mine to station ID KNCWASHI55 ?  


Much appreciated

Smart Zone Frequency and duration

Gregor Schuller
Updated at 2022-08-05 07:45:41 UTC 

Hello,

in my app I have three zones for watering the lawn.

two of them are about 140 sqm and they are in the sun the whole day.

The third zone is about 60sqm and is in the shade from 11 or 12 oclock.


in the two bigger areas the frequency and duration wich is shown in the app is OK (mode: frequently every 1.98 days for 19.29 minutes)

in the smaller area the app shows in regular mode every 1.2 days for 38.57 minutes. but that is two much water on this small zone in the shade.


Is there a solution to change this?


Best regards

Why does this thing keep going offline?  I have added a signal booster to extend the Wi-Fi and when I reconnect it finds the network automatically and connects with no problem. Why does this thing keep going off-line? Beginning to doubt the quality of this product.

Hello,


In my settings the watering time is set from 2:00 to 6:00 in the morning.


The system shows in the watering plan that some zones will start after 6:00 oclock. 


This needs to be fixed because of a mowing robot wich would drive against the irrigation system

Hi there, 

I'm noticing a very large difference (greater than 5 degrees) in the temperatures forcasted  provided by NetroWeather. Maybe my region isn't covered or forcasted accurately by the netro weather service. I didn't know if I am only experiecing this issue or if it is more widespread. Why is the recommendation 5 stars?

Damages due to constant water pressure on the system

Jorma Spitz
Updated at 2022-08-11 10:20:09 UTC 

Hi

I know this issue already got mentioned by other users over a year ago, but I would like to ask again for fixing this bug. I know that on a technical level fixing this will take only a few minutes. 

To my understanding the main valves is intended to avoid constant water pressure on the system. Unfortunately the closing sequence is mixed up and the main valve closes a second or two after the last watering valve closes. This means that there's contant water pressure on the system. At the moment I would need to manually open one of the valves three times a day to release the pressure (at 5:30AM, at 10AM and at 17PM). This is not exactly what I expect from a smart watering system. 

Just yesterday I had to replace a part of my systems because it broke due to the constant pressure. 

I know it's tempting to point at everybody else in order to refuse acknowledging that there is an important improvement to be made. But fixing this will probably cost less time than I used to write this text, seriously!

And while in my case it wasn't a Desaster because I was lucky that the pipe connection broke during manual activation of a watering program. But in other cases, if this happens without getting noticed, this could easily destroy a whole greenhouse of commercial food production.

That said, please fix this minor but important bug ASAP.

I really can't believe that you guys simply ignored the previous reports of this bug. But I hope you do the necessary steps to initiate the fixing of this bug.


Regards

How to calculate Flow rate for drip irrigation?

Ethan R
Updated at 2022-08-11 20:18:04 UTC 
I use the facet tuner for drip irrigation to my dahlias. I want the custom setting to have it run at 40% until it gets to 90%

There is a flow rate with a default option. Is there any value in calculating my actual flow rate? Will it just estimate run time better or will it actually impact the run time?  Or will it run indefinitely till it gets to 90%?

Thanks
