Case Study: Hayward achieves smarter pool control with Very’s IoT app development

Hayward launches a 4.6-star smart pool app with Very

Hayward, a leading pool equipment manufacturer, partnered with the IoT development firm Very to address usability issues with their OmniLogic app. The existing application was difficult for new pool owners to navigate, leading to low customer ratings, and maintaining separate iOS and Android codebases was costly and inefficient. Hayward needed a more intuitive and unified mobile solution to improve the customer experience and protect their brand reputation.

Very redesigned the user experience and rebuilt the application using React Native, creating a single codebase for both major platforms. They also developed a companion Apple Watch app using Swift. The new OmniLogic app achieved a 4.6-star rating on both the App Store and Google Play, with 93% of compatible devices successfully connecting. This resulted in improved customer feedback and provided Hayward with a strong foundation for future smart product enhancements.
