2024-11-07 | Steven Thomas | Like others said, if it worked properly, it would be cool. It only tracked the amount of time that it took to mow my yard. It did not show the mow patterns. I could have used a stop watch for that! Thumbs down | |
2024-09-23 | John Fenske | Might be great if it ever works properly with the BUC10929 Deluxe Smart Connector. The bluetooth connection sort of works with my old Pixel 3 XL. On my Pixel 8 Pro I can't get the bluetooth connected at all. When looking at the app screen to connect it looks like the app doesn't know how to match the Pixel 8 Pro screen resolution and doesn't even show my mower. The phone itself can see the Smart Connector without any issue. | |
2024-05-22 | Tom P. | Mow track is inconsistent. I mowed about an acre and it tracked about a third of that. Leaving the screen on seems to help sometimes which is silly. Maintenamce reminders are helpful. | |
2024-05-09 | Curtis Hadley | Worked well-ish in the past, but as of this spring it will NOT track my mowing much at all. My lawn is 3+ acres and the tracking looks like something a blind or drunk 4th grader drew... When an app makes me angry it's time to look for something that works. Several attempts to connect with Deere - CRICKETS. Found that the UnderArmour Map My Ride app DOES HAVE a Riding Mower 'workout' great replacement. Will Deere EVER contact me??! Tick-tock... | |
2023-05-03 | Craig Van Gundy | Needs ability to transfer data. Like the app, use it a lot. Recently got a new phone and now don't have history or information... 3MAY23. Reducing to two stars. No comment or resolution on my previous revue. Now, even an update erases previous usage (mows). What's the use? | |
2022-10-20 | Joseph Touchton | App is a hit or miss... Works great if you have your phone on (not asleep) and if you have an excellent gps signal. Also heavily drains phone battery (Pixel 6) when in use. Overall, good idea, but could use some work. | |
2022-10-13 | William Haden | Have been somewhat frustrated by this since I started using it, the tracking is pretty much worthless but it did help keep track of mows. Today Oct 13th it quit working completely. Open app, flashes open then gives error message - says wait for update. UNACCEPTABLE! Can't even access history to add a mow, can't check equipment service needs. I can live with the inaccurate tracking but I want to keep track of mows. | |
2022-10-06 | Tim Kincaid | I have the same problem as Adam Tapper. Upgraded my phone to a Galaxy S22+ from a 9S, it worked ok on the 9S but now on the S22+ when the app is opened it closes almost immediately with same message tgat Adam Tapper was getting. The app is worthless now!!! | |
2022-10-02 | Adam Tapper | App stopped working on my Galaxy S22. Every time I open it, it just closes and says the app has a bug and to wait for the developer to provide an update. Additionally, since it has never tracked GPS correctly, it doesn't help with plotting optimal courses as it says it could. I would just manually add the mow hours in later to remind me about service needs. At this point, the app is now completely useless to me until it gets fixed. | |
2022-06-15 | D | Doesnt track at all. I tried this app to see how much I am actually cutting, as I have an estimated 6 acres and 1 mile of trails to cut. Spent 90 minutes cutting grass, and according to this app I drove around my barn. App is a total waste. Cool idea, too bad it doesn't work. |
