Aquascape Smart Control App

I like the convenience the app provides. It was easy to set-up and has worked flawlessly - turning pump on and off and adjusting the flow rate. Very nice. Unfortunately the incessant in-app notice to allow notifications is a bit much. Every time? C’mon…. And no ability to provide feedback within the app. Cost you a couple of stars.

Have there been any recent reported issues with the iPhone app hanging up on ‘waiting for device’ when configuring the light controller for use. Been thru all the troubleshooting. Have all units side by side so no signal issues.

I’d love to see Aquascape invest some more time and money into this app. We have invested several thousand dollars in Aquascape equipment (2 pumps, 3 auto dosers, thermometer, transformers, 22 pond lights, etc) For that kind of investment…the app needs to be better since it’s the primary interface that customers use to interact with their Aquascape products.

Works fine, But it has a pretty complex set up to get it working right instruction book doesn’t agree with the video on YouTube but once you get it working it works good

The ability to view past temperature data is unavailable with the latest app update. When is this going to be fixed?

Update: updated review. App works fine, the printed directions that come with the device don’t match the updated app which is not the apps fault. Aquascape says they are updating their directions. Acuascape had a fast response time to my question but I had figured out the issue as I didn’t allow the device to join the local network. Works as advertised. Can’t pair with iPhone as the app is missing the 3 dots to connect to the WiFi network to then add new device per paper instructions that came with smart control plug.

Tried to connect and would pair with iPhone but then go offline. So had a technician from our internet service out and got a different router with stronger Wi-Fi signal. Initially paired but then goes offline again even though we are getting good wifi connection with the phone. We have another watering system that runs off an app as well and don't ever have offline issues with that even before getting the stronger Wi-Fi signal and the system is about the same distance from the router as the aquapump. Just ordered the remote as this is too unreliable.

So easy to control all of my Aquascape Devices!

The app works great! Love being able to control the pump and lights with my phone. Setting Automations is also cool. I like the color fade settings, but wish you could customize it with your own colors instead of just the 8 or 10 options you are given. Should be able to change the colors to my teams colors for game day or red and green for Christmas, etc. Such a well done app, being able to customize the colors a bit more would just be the cherry on top!

OK, you asked me to enter a password and I do. Then the app crashes. Before you put something like this on the market, why don’t you make sure it works? Horrible. I’ve tried 10 times and no luck so now my pond guy has to call support. This should be ready out of the box, especially for what it cost.
