About this app
The B-hvye smart sprinkler timer app allows you to control or monitor your sprinklers from anywhere in the world with the convenience of your smart device.
Smart Watering
Knowing how long and how often to water your plants can be challenging. When set to smart watering mode, B-hyve takes the guesswork out of watering and utilizes Mother Nature, along with some really great technology, to determine the watering schedule for your yard. When set and left in smart watering mode, B-hyve can save users as much as 50% more water over a traditional controller.
Weather
When set in smart mode, B-hyve uses local weather data to determine how much water is evaporated and transpired through your plants each day to know when it needs to water. It also accounts for any rainfall that is in the forecast, shuts off the system for rain, then looks back to see how much actually fell. That’s smart! But all yards are not the same. B-hyve also takes into account things like soil type, plant type, sun/shade and slope to determine a watering schedule that takes the water to the roots and helps avoid runoff.
WeatherSense
If you want to be the one in control of the schedule, that’s okay too. With B-hyve you can set custom programs to water how you want while still taking advantage of the local weather data to override watering in case of a weather event. This will shut off your system during the rain and resume your program when the rain has passed. That’s smart!
Integrated Irrigation Audit Tool
The B-hyve app also integrates the award-winning irrigation audit tool right to your smart device. By performing a catch cup test on your sprinkler system, you will know exactly how much water is being applied rather than relying on estimated sprinkler head water use that other timers/apps use, which can be off by as much as 50%, saving you more water and money.
This is the app for the best-selling, WaterSense and SWAT certified Orbit B-hyve Smart Wifi Sprinkler Timer. This is also the companion app for homeowners to the Hydro-Rain B-hyve Pro Wifi Controller.

The app doesn't work properly at all. There is a bug that crashes the app when I try to change my weather source. Also, history just hasn't been recording whatsoever, whether it be schedules or manual watering. I cleared the cache and force closed the app, I deleted and downloaded the app again, I reset the connection to my devices, I even deleted my devices and paired them again, and nothing solved it. I'm done with this app until they fix it.

Either faulty Orbit timer or app. I'd assume the later as in PA1r(AP) mode, I can ping timers IP. When attempting to update Wi-Fi, Orbit PA1r (AP) mode cannot find any available Wi-Fi SSID's. Manual entry of SSID and password is also unsuccessful. I've already followed directions regarding resetting timer. Same issue loading app on multiple phones.

Turning on my sprinklers this year, the app was frozen and unresponsive. After hours of trying different things including uninstalling and reinstalling, I finally had to reset my sprinkler device, which lost all the programming and setup. can't wait to do this every year...
