Hydrawise

Smart irrigation control from your phone

Hydrawise lets homeowners manage a connected irrigation system without standing beside the controller. It is built for people with lawns, gardens, or other watered areas who want to check schedules, adjust watering, and keep an eye on different zones from an Android phone. The app is developed by Hunter Industries and sits in the House & Home category.

Weather-aware watering

The app uses local weather information to help decide when watering is needed. Its predictive scheduling can adjust irrigation around forecast rain, reducing the chance of running a cycle when the ground is likely to receive water naturally. Weather details are presented alongside the system status, so users can see why a schedule may change.

Useful when you are away

Hydrawise is most practical once irrigation stops being a set-and-forget task. You can review the system remotely, change schedules, and make manual adjustments without going outside to reach the controller. Separate zones can be configured for different parts of a landscape, which suits gardens where grass, planting beds, and other areas do not need identical watering.

• Good fit for: homes using a compatible Hydrawise irrigation controller, especially those with several watering zones.
• Helpful habit: checking the app after a weather change or before leaving home for several days.
• Worth knowing: initial zone and schedule setup may take some attention if your system has many areas to configure.

What users think

Hydrawise holds a 4.5-star rating from more than 7,600 reviews, with 100,000+ installs. Those numbers fit an app that is less about daily browsing and more about quietly handling a household chore: keeping irrigation schedules visible, adjustable, and better matched to the weather.
