OmniLogic

Much better over the last few years. Especially regarding connectivity to Hayward’s server. Still some wonky things that are hard to explain and not always intuitive. What would help is a much better set of instructions on how Hayward handles the logic of things. Maybe this exists and I haven’t found it. Example. If my main pump is off. And then I have it turn on for say 75%. If i set it on a timer, then does it automatically resume its scheduled setting at the expiration of that time? What if I do not specify a time limit? Then will the pump stay on forever? Or will the scheduled settings take over as appropriate? In other words. The interface is pretty good and has gotten better and more reliable, but I’m rarely certain what the controller is planning on next. Would also he nice to set up some rules for interconnects. For example, my co2 needs to be turned off when we are using the hit tub, but the rest of the time enabled. Again. Better instructions with either the app or the system controller would be helpful. All in all. The best part is that in conjunction with a sense and dispense system, my ph control os automated with my co2 system and i can monitor my ph and ORP (another method of looking at sanitizer levels) from anywhere. And i can watch the status of things. And i can turn the hot-tub on before i get home so its ready when i get there. Sorry to ramble.

Great app to control the OmniLogic system. Good layout overall but definitely room for improvement! 1. The pool temperature only displays with pump running. While I know why this makes sense, it would be nice if it would show the last temperature reading and the time it was recorded. That would be helpful. But 2. Even more helpful would be Apple Watch control. I do not go swimming with my iPhone, but I do swim with my watch on. Having pool control while in the pool would be ULTRA great! Please get on this Hayward tech team! 3. The UI is pretty good. But it could be sleeker and a little more modern looking — some rounded edges, some different color schemes, etc. This is a less important detail though. THANK YOU HAYWARD! I hope your products are built to last! I spent a fortune investing in these products, they better outlast the payments!!!

Growing tired of walking out to my filter system turning valves, flipping switches, getting out of my spa soaking wet, walking back again to turn everything off, touching electrical switches while soaked, there had to be a better way! It’s the 21st Century! I found out about this system on Hayward’s website. I was apprehensive about asking my pool guy about it but had him install it anyway. This app & control system is perfect for the control freak in me who now has control of everything in my backyard, front yard, and my pool in the palm of my hand from anywhere I have internet access. With my $40 Echo Dot Alexa can operate ALL of it with voice command! She even gives me a status report of my pool water and anything else I have turned on including what color shows my pool and landscape lights are running! Nice job Hayward!

The Hayward OmniLogic and the accompanying app are fantastic! Intuitive and easy to use. The “Favorites” icon allows users to put their favorites and most used options on their screen where they want them for ease of use. The “Themes” icon allows bundling multiple components to be turned on and operate at the touch of a button. I’m a pool service professional with over 33 years of experience and this has got to be one of the best products I have ever worked with. As a pool professional and installer of the OmniLogic I can access a customer’s system remotely to troubleshoot or set programming. There are other phone app pool controllers, but nothing is as good and as easy to use as the Hayward OmniLogic. Nothing. Add to that the customer support is the best in the business.

Initially we had a hard time getting the whole system to work. The Omnilogic would keep disconnecting from the network. We figured out a static IP address helped. If the Omnilogic isn’t online the app doesn’t work. Once we got it figured out the app is working just fine. I control the pool and yard lights. I’ve set timers and schedules. Normally everything works smoothly. Sometimes the system gets and error. The only way to fix it is to reboot at the main control panel. Also, the errors are cryptic, not sure what they mean. It would be great if the app slowed us to reboot the system remotely. For example, we are on our way home and want to heat the spa. If there is an error, we might not be able too. If we could remotely reboot, we might be able to get it back online.
