My 6 zone old school sprinkler controller is dying. I'm looking to upgrade to a controller with wifi and an app, because my current controller is in an inconvenient location, making it difficult to turn off/on and change.

Any suggestions?

A lot of people like rachio.

I've had the rainbird wifi controlled for a few years.
It's pretty decent. I can control and set schedules pretty easily through the app. Set delays etc.

The only thing I wish I could do it with it, is set more precise schedules.

I.e. instead of doing MWF - 7am watering. It would be nice if I could do the mwf 7am zone. But also schedule a shorter 5min watering at say noon time on certain days or daily.

Not sure if the rachio let's you more fine tune schedule or if there's a newer version of the rainbird that let's you do that.
