Kevin is flogging Google stuff as usual, I believe he is referring to something 
he set up with the Google Home Speaker (Google's version of the Amazon Echo) 
and he is using IFTTT to control it.
I'm sure there are also home kit capable controllers and apps for this which 
will work with your iOS device.
Sorry if I am not researching this further, from now until March any sprinkler 
where I live would at best produce ice cubes and even in July and August I 
rarely need to water the lawn, it can get to be in the 90's here as well, but 
then again if I don't water it I won't have to cut the grass as often *smile*.

Regards,
Sieghard

I've Rachio<http://rachio.com/> linked with Google 
Home<https://madeby.google.com/home/> via IFTTT<https://ifttt.com/>.
I've it configured, so I'm able to start/stop sprinklers using my voice (e.g. 
start/turn on zone #) will start a specified zone for 10 mins. Stop the water 
will stop any sprinkler currently running. Not only has this made the 
sprinklers have smart controls that are accessible, but it has resulted in a 
healthier lawn, and cost savings.

Hi All,

Does anyone know of any sprinkler system controllers that have an accessible 
app for scheduling the day and time the sprinkler runs, and for how long?

Thanks.

Pam
