Pros and cons of SolarEdge Monitoring app for iPhone and iPad

SolarEdge Monitoring app good for

I like the new look and feel and it is very useful to see the self consumption now. Thank you for this update and continue like that!

I am missing the landscape mode, especially for ipad. Before the update I was using the website based monitoring portal on my wall mounted "home-automation" ipad, because self consumption was not shown. Now the update contains all the data but not in landscape view. Please add that as well!

Overall the app is pretty good for monitoring your installation. The latest version has incorporated some animation effects that detract from the user experience.

Im new to the solar world, so have zero basis for comparison, however this app is excellent for showing me my current, real time production, as well as fairly easy to navigate daily, weekly, monthly and yearly graphs of production over those time periods. I believe the app is capable and ready, but so far I cannot see my self consumption or consumption from the grid numbers on any of the graphs in the app - although the legend shows that it should be capable. (Perhaps my two-way digital meter is not yet integrated properly with the app yet to provide this information). The addition of this information (someday/somehow) into those graphs provided would give a better idea of not only the production levels, but also the consumption levels (from my own production and from the grid). As is, my only complaint is that there graphs automatically re-size to fit to screen the max-production height on the graph, with 90% of the screen height, so that when it scroll through the various days of production it always looks like a lot is produced, but sometimes the top of the graph is 1.2kW - scroll over one day and while the graph my look identical at first glance, the top of the graph may be showing 4.5kW production - making it difficult to compare production day by day, at a glance. I think (imho) it would be great to have the graph scales made to fit the so far average production day for the system, so that as a person scrolls through day-by-day, the values of the x and y axis remain the same and instead only the production amounts change day by day.

This version scales power produced on the daily page much more precisely than the previous version. So now you can interpolate to at least one decimal point for the hour by hour production. I would like to see this in 15 minute intervals in the next iteration. The graphics have been improved - the line trace is now filled in with a beautiful green. This app is better than the SolarEdge website which does not appear to have the same granularity for daily power production.

In the past year SolarEdge has really put some effort into this app. It now surpasses the web app in most ways and is very easy to use. All the info you want is displayed clean and concisely. Great Job!

Some bad moments

Totally useless if you forget your password!! No password recovery option.

The older version for iOS 6 and 7 had tons of useful data and allowed monitoring at the panel level. This new version is not very useful. Cannot tell the exact usage for past days. Cannot monitor the panels, etc.

Would appreciate an app with similar functionality to website. Or make website monitoring mobile browser friendly if you are wanting to control development costs. Would like to be able to monitor real time and historical energy generation of solar array on iPhone. Thanks!

This app maybe works 2 days a week out of 7. It may work in the morning and then stop recording production in real time later in the day. Or not record production at all. Very frustrating app. Probably one of the worst apps I use. Useless.

Updates are all over the place. Every few minutes to every other day. Ridiculous.

Gain a star for improving the time increments shown, but you lose a star for two things: auto-scaled time increments of 2h45m or 2h15m which varies depending on the device and orientation? 1, 2, 3, or 4 hour increments should be all that are allowed. Its the only thing that makes sense if you cant show grid lines. My brain cant estimate 33% from 2:45 to 5:30 to figure out when the sun peaked my panel power. Second thing is the biggest thing: you broke or removed the iPad sidebar capability in this most-recent update. It doesnt show up anymore. Ill reboot and see if it comes back, but usually I dont have to reboot. Also, how about reducing the space at the top that the system pic takes up? Id rather see more data without scrolling than the pic of my never-changing solar panels. Thanks and keep up the good work with the optimizer and inverter designs.
