OK, I see. this actually has to do with when the IFTTT ‘program start’ notification is sent out. Specifically, as soon as a program is scheduled, the ‘program start’ notification will be sent out. The rain sensor status gets applied at per-zone level. The reason it’s implemented this way is that a program may contain many zones, some of them observe rain sensor status, while others may ignore rain sensor (note that ‘ignore rain’ is a per-zone attribute). As a result, a program will be scheduled as usual, and whether a zone actually runs or not depends on its ‘ignore rain’ attribute. That explains why ‘program start’ notification is always sent out, even if no zone ends up running. I agree that this is not ideal, and will check what we can do to improve it.

We are currently away till Monday July 21. Orders placed during this time will be shipped on Tuesday July 22. Thank you for your understanding!
