Love my SDC return pump and ContrAll App
I’ve had the Sicce Syncra SDC 3.0 return pump on my nano for almost 2 years now. Haven’t had any issues at all. The app is very comprehensive and user friendly..
Actually r3tqrted
Turns something as turning a dial into a complicated buggy nightmare.
Funktioniert aber viel Luft nach oben
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, was sehr störend ist wenn kein Modus eingestellt ist bei der Syncra SDC läuft das hektisch in der Übersicht hin und her. Als weiteres fehlt die Einstellbarkeit im Zeitprogramm wenn man füttert das die Pumpen abschaltbar sind. Es gibt auch futterautomaten oder Zusätze die man ins Becken gibt wo man eine gewisse Zeit keine Bewegung will weil das Automatisch geht. Schaltet man die Pumpe ab , gibt’s eine Fehlermeldung, hier wäre eine Meldeverzögerungseinstellung top, 2 bis 15 min wären sinnvoll.
Am I missing something
I’d obviously thought since it’s advertised, you can change the temperature with your phone, I’d assumed it could read it while the heater was still in the water. It’s actually the opposite of contactless.
Handy
Good app. Simple and easy to keep up with. Just need to know if there is a way I can change the temperature reading from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Also, if they want to take this to the next level they need to add a feature to where you can monitor on the go instead of scanning the thermometer every time you need to read it.
Easy to use
Hands down one of the easiest apps I’ve ever set up and used. Even after power outages turns back on as normal.
App not working
I cannot use anything on the app. I can’t adjust the temperature at all.
Very nice device and app
I bought SICCE wave maker for my small bond type fish tank, where I have my gold fish. Main reasons for my purchase were the sophisticated app and temperature monitoring feature. I have few dead corners in my freshwater tank, where I don’t have a lot of water flow. This wave maker will assure that all of the water will circulate through my filter. It works well and I like to check my water temperature diagrams regularly - nice extra feature. There is one small missing feature - a scheduled program, where the wave maker would be off (or 0% power). Minimum speed for all scheduled programs is 5%, which is good for the durability of the pump. However I would like to drive the wave maker every day for 6-12 hours, and then turn it off for the rest of hours, so that my fish would get some peaceful time too. This is currently not possible.
Not Great
In order to change temperatures you have to keep unplugging the unit & removing it from the aquarium to get a reading with your mobile device. Such a hassle. Why not make it so that I can put my phone up to the glass to scan & be able to change the temperature? For such an expensive device the app should work much better than this.
Needs improvement
This app needs improvement
App
App works good was easy to set up and instant changes on settings
This sucks
I bought a sicce contactless heater thinking it would be good it’s not so contactless if you have to keep scanning the heater with phone in order to change any settings on the heater I’m definitely returning this asap will just go with regular heater
Not contactless
Not very efficient on being contactless cause you have to take the heater out to scan. Should have put it on. Back side of heater instead of the front I have an iPhone 15 pro
Not too bad but needs to be updated
Did not have a hard Time connecting the pump to the app but I don't have temp or power % notice after a week temp showed up but still no power% but still happy so far
Non function
The app freezes and unable to control after a few days. Very unreliable. Needs major work.
Okay…
I have a heater and it works very well, when I can actually adjust it. The app is terrible. Anytime I want to change the temp, I have to take the heater out of the water after unplugging it because the sensor on my phone doesn’t pick it up how it should. I have an iPhone 13 so I should have no issues. I gave the app two stars because it is not very good.
Add
Please add notifications when pump going down cause of electricity problems
All gimmick
This touch-less heater is all gimmick. To adjust the temperature you have to pull the heater out of the water by touching it. and physically tap your phone to it. Just give me a manual adjustment.
Good pump, bad app
I like the features of being able to start stop your pump on the app. The temperature feature is handy too. Negatives: -Can’t change the temp from Celsius to Fahrenheit -App hasn’t been updated for the notch -Can’t customize feeding mode time length - Can’t adjust feeding mode speed. It’s either on or off Sicce, you really need to put some effort and update this app. I’m honestly considering switching to EcoTech because of the lack of support and features for your app.
Great product, Horrible App
Their pumps and wave makers are amazing! It’s a shame the app is difficult to use, often unresponsive, and makes you question owning the product at all.
Needs Fahrenheit
Frequent disconnects with this expensive pump. Hard to believe you can’t change Celcius temp readout to Fahrenheit. Overall feels a bit clunky as well. Like most aquarium product software it just feels half baked. Not as bad as Kamoer software but still leaves a lot to be desired.
I never review but this one I had to.
This is the most annoying app ever created. I can’t believe such a respected company as Sicce would pay someone for such a pathetic app. You must remove the unit out of the aquarium every single time you need to adjust it in any way. You have to wrestle with the suction cups and slosh water everywhere, and just when you go to put it back in the tank you notice you have to do it all over again. It is the definition of frustration
Good pump, bad app.
Would be nice if they updated the app for any iPhone made with a notch. Which is 3 or 4 years ago… Changing settings is never instant and requires repetitively hitting the setting you want. When it doesn’t take after a few minutes, I just hard reset it and it works again. The pump is good so why destroy it with such a poorly supported app? Please fix it.
Stopped working
This app stopped working and stopped controlling my pump.
Non si vede l’orologio
Non compare l’orologio in modo da impostare le varie fasce orarie ...
Will not buy more of these heaters.
There needs to be a manual temperature dial or something because this app is absolutely ridiculous. Either that, or make the app remember the heater so I only have to scan it once. Why should I need to remove the heater from my tank literally every time I want to adjust the temperature? Waste of my time and my money, tbh.
Looking Forward to Updates
Syncing my Xstream SDC pumps was pretty straight forward, no real issues there. Setting master and slave modes between both pumps was less intuitive. For every change of a setting, you have to hit the save icon for it to save and push the change. One frustrating thing I discovered was that the app does not yet support the Dark appearance on the iPhone. I found this out when trying to create a custom schedule and the time selection text was white on a white background so you couldn’t select the time you wanted. Another very frustrating thing I’ve found is, you are limited with flow customization and scheduling. The preset programs won’t allow you to set the peak power setting so if 100% power is too much for your tank, you can’t use those modes. Additionally, if you would like to schedule those preset programs for different times of the day, well, none of those programs are available for scheduling. I’m not really sure how random those preset Random Mode programs are either, because when you select them, it shows you that it’s setting it to Sinusoidal with a specific time value, if the timing does not change randomly, then you’re not getting random flow patterns. Also, why not just add a random timing setting to the customizable Sinusoidal program? Adding a timing range instead of a single value could accomplish this. Another issue I discovered is with the feed mode settings. You can schedule feed times, however, you can not enable or disable feed mode adhoc. I also experienced when feed mode was enabled at a scheduled time, it did not automatically stop feed mode when it was supposed to stop. Overall, I like the Xstream SDC pumps. However, there are improvements that can and should be made with the software to make it more customizable and useful to users looking for more versatility from their pumps.
heater killed $250 of plants
last week I plugged this heater into my new 40 gallon tank, followed all the instructions and set the tank to 78 degrees. I planted some fresh plants in there that I had just bought at a store worth over $250. Over the next 3 days they were basically completely dead and I was going crazy wondering what was happening since all of the water parameters were testing just fine. The app was still telling me the heater was set at 78 so I didn't think much about the temperature, until I stuck my arm in there to start throwing away all the dead plants and realised the tank was FREEZING like ice water, probably around 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit. Are you kidding me? I have no words to describe this trash product and application. Money thrown quite literally into the garbage
New version edited review
Works after uninstalling and reinstalling.... Temp gauge now says 0 degrees, which is of course wrong.... but at least I can connect.
