My cleaner cleans fine, but am I missing something with the app? The "official" app is the Prowler 930 app, and as far as I can tell it offers no functionality other than manually driving - i.e., you can't even set cycle time. I tried the MyDolphin app which seems to do more but it doesn't "see" the Warrior on bluetooth.
Pentair Warrior SI - app?

Too funny, I also just popped my Warrior SI in the pool for the first time and noticed the same thing. Also, unless I am missing something, the rest of the app is useless if you are not Bluetooth connected to the timer? For example, viewing the online manual etcetera....

I've not explored the app aside from the manual drive, but I did notice that I am unable to use the delay start feature on the power supply. Have you guys had this issue? Or maybe i just got a bad power supply?
I haven’t tried delay start. But I can report that the Dolphin app doesn’t see the unit, and the Dolphin+ app sees it but won’t connect, directs you to the Pentair app. I only paid $50 extra for the SI as opposed to the SE, so it’s fine, but not really worth it.
Agreed. I'm happy with the vacuum, it works better than my polaris did, but they could easily make it so much better. Like you said, it would be nice to be able to set it to clean after my filter turns off, rather than having to physically turn it on at night.

I think you can. I haven't done it yet, but there is a way to set the power supply into a mode where it automatically starts up when plugged in. This way, you can set a timer, automation, Google, Alexa, whatever, to power on the unit.
Alternatively, why not set the weekly mode, then it will turn on every night at that time. Not sure why it matters to you if the filter is on or not but you should be able to work that out.

I agree the app is pretty weak. Still, it was worth the 50 bucks for the option to manually control it and the better filter basket.

Mine doesn't work either. I also notice that the feature isn't mentioned in the User Manual.
I have heard of people doing that. I don't have any automation in my house, and honestly I find myself running the vac overnight and just taking it out the next morning, who knows how long that will last though.
For the extra 50 bucks, I'd definitely buy it again. Overall, my complaints about the app are very minor and don't really detract from the value.
Plus, I found out last night I can connect and turn on the vac from my kitchen, so thats cool.

I downloaded a bunch of Maytronics user manuals and can't find anything on the delayed start button. Here is the picture from the Pentair manual it doesn't even show the button on the diagram....
That’s odd. I’m almost positive mine mentions it at least. I’ll have to check.

It probably does! That clip I posted is from the Downloaded version of the manual. The hardcopy that came with the machine shows the button in the diagram! And describes how to use it on the next page.
