WEATHER INTELLIGENCE
How It Works
As the very first smart watering app, Rachio was built to ensure technology didn’t get in the way of Mother Nature. While trying to combat water waste, our engineers built the most intuitive weather-informed scheduling on the market.
Control from Anywhere
Don’t get stuck with an outdated controller where you have to build and adjust your watering schedules from the controller itself.
Now you can maintain and track your watering schedule no matter where you are. So if you’re on a beach in Belize or just relaxing on your living room couch, use your smartphone to maintain the yard of your dreams.

WATER SMARTER
Have you ever seen your neighbor with their sprinklers on in the rain? Embarrassing, right? Thankfully, that’ll never happen to you with Weather Intelligence™. Weather Intelligence™ ensures you only water when it makes sense. Too cold? Skip. Too windy? Skip. Raining? Definitely skip. The app will take a step back when Mother Nature’s got it covered.
