How to install Rachio APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Rachio APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.rachio.iro-v4.19.8-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

4 ★first time I've ever run sprinklers without having to program a box. so far so good. still learning the ways to use it. I like when it tells me it's going to skip because it's supposed to rain.
5 ★best watering app that ive used and i am in the field . The rachio does so much and the smart watering cycles are perfect for water saving
5 ★Great product. I used to have to adjust the watering manually it's very nice to be able to let it do it's own thing. but it's easy to intervene manually when I want to, such as extra watering during vegetable garden season. overall, it was easy to install and easy to use.
2 ★Overall a great product but... The Watering Schedule makes no sense. It will show 'watered' - today (but at a future time) - it will cancel upcoming watering events due to wind that occured 10hrs earlier. Flexi watering finishes its thing 8+ hrs BEFORE sunrise, and thus will start when the dogs are out before bedtime.
5 ★Great at what it does, wish it had a bit more flexibility when doing setup for slope and soil type. tough to draw boundaries for zones... app has improved over time with better quick run functions.... Love the results but HATE being bombarded with lawn care ads. I dont want the lawn care service or advice. I live rural, I LIKE my dandelions and so do my bees. The only add would be a checkbox for reducing ads or No Ads...
5 ★The app is easy to use. I just got new sod installed along with the rachio controller. It provides notifications when it starts and stops irrigation. I haven't had a chance to see how the weather skip works yet, due to summer weather conditions.
2 ★Last season the Rachio app worked fine. This season it is not working so good. Every time I click on something while the system is running, such as to shut it off, it just churns and churns...until I finally have to shut it down and start over.
2 ★Does not work well with my Android LG Stylo 5 phone. Works well with my wife's Lg. Annoying.
5 ★Great app and very easy to setup your system. It is also great for forecasting and adaptable to your area/grass/soil type. I will never go back to traditional sprinkler system again after using this for over a year now.
3 ★I have submitted tickets/requests to update the app to allow run times less than 1 min, allow pause times (for air compressor recharge whole blowing out sprinklers), and zone repeat. the only response I get is "we can't do that". other than that, I am a huge fan of this tool. it has so much potential.
3 ★Everything is working perfectly. Please do not become one of those horrible companies that force updates. I do not want to be at the mercy of your engineers and their possible mistakes. Feel free to suggest an update and clearly explain in extreme detail what each change entitles and its consequences, but do not keep me from using the app without updating it. Class actions are coming for companies who have apps linked to a product which functionalities get reduced due to poor app updates.
1 ★The seasonal shifts are ridiculous. There's no reason for durations to double or triple in watering time. The smart schedules are dumb
