New EVO 614i Robot Pool Cleaner Review

is the "app" useful?
It is a 15% premium on the base model 604.
what kind of functionality does it allow?

Edit : Just found the manual... let's you start/stop, which doesn't seem very useful, unless you tend to leave it in the pool all the time which I don't do. And the other is the manual drive where you can send it anywhere you want using directional controls. Could be useful i guess but does not seem like something one would use often...
It’s useful for me, I have our 614iq set to start cleaning at 8am 7 days a week. I don’t touch it until I pull it out to clean filter, then put it back in.
 
I just got the Evo 604 and used it for the first time today. I found the start/stop button to be very finicky. I had to press it multiple times before the robot started or stopped. Has anyone else had this experience with the Evo?
 
3,

The main problem that I had with the Start button is that it is also the Stop button... And.. there is little to tell you that the button is working..

So you push it, and it seems like nothing is happening, so you push it again, and this just shuts if off... :(

If you look at the top of the power supply, there is a 'Power' light.. When you push the Start button once... the Power light will flicker telling you the robot is on.. Wait a few seconds and the robot will start moving.

We did have a recent post about having to "break in" the Start button, by initially pushing it several times.. Not sure how true that was.. I did not personally have this issue...

Thanks,
