Description
The B-hyve 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 with the Hydro-Rain B-hyve Pro Wifi Controller.

Still waters the garden and its raining App ignores rain delay or somehow its still has the rain weather icon and will continue to water the garden. I know have to vigially watch the app everyday and compare it to my weather station
Works great
This system works very well 👍
Watering after extensive and during rain
What is this system doing! It is supposed to detect soil moisture and rain events. We reprammed it to try and fix it. But it is still watering when it shouldn’t. It has also not come on in a recent heat wave????
One word will describe this apparatus
Disallusioning.
Unreliable - find an alternative
5* reviews mostly fake, wish they would spend money on support instead of fake 5* reviews. Constantly stops working, according to the main FB group where these is no sign or comment from b-hyve support, apparently some genius made these devices dependant on a server connection that goes down once a month lately? How hard can it be, set devices to water on a schedule yet the schedule constantly stops working, it has one job and it can not do it, waste of money and especially time. In the last 3 months I have reset my 3 devices 4 times and again today can see they are not watering, the “daily” schedule says last watered two weeks ago and always says next watering is tomorrow, tomorrow never comes unless you reset and setup a new program…..every month!
Love the app
We love our garden and the sprinkler system has made keeping the water up to the garden easy. The app just then allows us to change the watering around rainfall.
Easy and convenient
The tape valves are extremely worth the $$$. We can’t be home all the time and sometimes we work for long periods away. The electronic valves give me the opportunity to water individual areas around my dwelling from whatever I may be. Highly recommended them. The area I live in is hot and arid and these valve’s give me the opportunity to cool down live stock with water in extreme heat conditions.
App is full of bugs!
Terrible app!! Half the time it doesn’t work when you try to manually water but now it has logged me out and won’t let me get back in! I just had a 40C day and can’t turn the water on!!!
Stopped working today
App was fine, but stopped working today along with everyone else’s on the Lawn Facebook page. 🙄
