Please add ability to manually add a hidden Wi-Fi SSID, and I will gladly change my rating. Manufacturers need to understand what a pain in the rear it is to go into your router, broadcast your SSID, apply and save, connect a new device, go back into the router, hide it again, etc... It's a whole thing and I've only had to do it one other time and really don't want to do that again. 99% of devices these days allow manually adding a hidden network. Let's add this one to that majority please.

Edit: I'm changing this from 1 to 4 stars. They replied to my email request with the explanation of how to edit my schedule. However, it's more difficult to navigate than it used to be. To edit your schedule, you have to first click on the device icon. But the calendar that shows past and future seems to be gone. Rachio is a capable and functional app. We are having lots of rains here now and it is canceling the watering schedule properly, as it has always done. App navigation is unintuitive.

They've made it better since I first bought a Rachio and started using the app, but it's still a little jinky and confusing at times. The app also loses connectivity with my Rachio about 1/10 times (closing and restarting corrects it). I have definitely found it better to dumb it down quite a bit. The "smart" schedules come dangerous close to killing my landscape, so it's usually better to put it on a set schedule of 2-3x/week and enable the weather skips (a smart function that does work well).
