### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-02-20, version 2.1.0*

Ecobee should improve their software to match the quality of beestat!!!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2025-02-07, version 2.1.0*

Just a wonderful use of data. All the smart thermostat providers should be jealous.

### 5/5 — Detailed data for your ecobee

*2025-01-22, version 2.1.0*

Very solid app that can show you a ton of data about your Ecobee thermostat. You can see historical graphs and comparisons of your usage against temperature. It’s very useful to pin point any HVAC issues. Very impressive!

### 5/5 — Mimics Ecobee Home IQ

*2025-01-12, version 2.1.0*

Useful app with full of historical graphs brought to your phone, otherwise only visible on Ecobee HomeIQ System monitor on web interface. You can easily see how the temperature fluctuated, when were the settings changed, runtime, occupancy for 1 day, 3 days, 7 days or custom dates.

### 5/5 — Helpful data visualizations

*2025-01-10, version 2.1.0*

Ecobee saves a wealth of data but their app doesn’t let you easily access everything. Beestat app arms you with data trends to monitor you Ecobee/HVAC to make sure everything is working to plan.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-12-21, version 2.1.0*

Has all the info that the Ecobee app should give you by default.  This app is a must-have complement to your Ecobee thermostat!

### 5/5 — Excellent data presentation for Ecobee thermostats

*2024-12-05, version 2.1.0*

This is an impressive app that is Free.  I used it to fine tune my Ecobee thermostat and saved money from having a much greater understanding of the data.  
Great Job.  Great app.

### 5/5 — Excellent Application for Ecobee

*2024-11-30, version 2.1.0*

This application enables us to see and analyse a lot of information, the temperature profile enables us to see the efficiency of the hvac.. 

Hopefully new features like humidifier data will be added!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-11-28, version 2.1.0*

I been trying do dial in my hvac system after upgrading to an air source heat pump. This is extremely helpful!

### 5/5 — Great app. Thanks

*2024-11-27, version 2.1.0*

Shows better graphs, temps, etc… works well, easy to use.

### 5/5 — Excellent addition to ecobee

*2024-11-06, version 2.1.0*

This app is useful for anyone who wants to know what the thermostat and its sensors are seeing in hir home.

### 5/5 — Graphs of when systems run very useful.

*2024-10-31, version 2.1.0*

Seeing the data in graphical form is an intuitive way to visualize usage over the previous several days.  I raised my thermostat a couple of degrees when I wasn’t home for a few days and it was easy to see how much less the system ran at the higher setting.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-10-05, version 2.1.0*

Excellent application that makes up for a lot of short falls of the ecobee website.

### 5/5 — Ecobee with Full Power!

*2024-10-02, version 2.1.0*

I didn't know I needed this in my life, but it really unlocks the power of the data available for the EcoBee thermostats.  I presently have 3 premium thermostats and 6 sensors.  Making sense of the data does take graphs that represent multiple sensor data sets and contextualize with occupancy, weather, and runtime.  A visual graph for air quality is only available here; there are great insights to be gained.  I don't want to see this project halted, so I did donate as I am getting that much value. Great app overall!

### 5/5 — Analytics!

*2024-09-19, version 2.1.0*

What a needed and wonderful tool. Looks like this app is brand new, but I was able to easily install the App on an Apple Silicon MacBook. Looking forward to playing with the floorplan/data visualizer as I have 2 different properties with 3 to 5 thermostats each.

### 5/5 — Super Amazing App!

*2024-08-13, version 2.1.0*

This is a great app that every ecobee owner should have. Provides so much insight!

### 5/5 — Wonderful Information

*2024-06-28, version 2.0.22*

The author of this program for both iPhone and macOS on an M processor has done a great job and deserve support. They have also done this without compromising your privacy and selling you out. More information is coming.

### 3/5 — Charts need memory

*2025-11-24, version 2.1.0*

On the charts, I can change what lines are shown, and anything I do will reset it: changing the timeframe, coming back an hour later, etc. I really wish it’d just remember I want humidity and not outdoor temp. 

Also the UI overall is just a bit janky all over, like the iOS app is a basic port of an android app. Date picker is especially awful.

### 4/5 — Still Learning

*2025-09-02, version 2.1.0*

I replaced a Venstar ColorTouch stat that was 7 years old and starting to lose contact with the web.  Its most useful attribute was that it tracked my system usage daily. This is about the only thing the Ecobee doesn’t do. 

I thought that Beestat would have that information and I think it does but I haven’t found it yet.  It does have some very good analytics, which I’m also learning about. 

I had found pretty good correlation between daily average temperature and system run time. But Beestat  has a “minute run/degree day that might allow me to back into run time. 

I’m going to keep messing with Beestat for now.

### 4/5 — Heat Pump must have!

*2025-03-10, version 2.1.0*

I was thrilled to learn that I could keep my Ecobee thermostat with recent upgrade of home HVAC to heat pump, but then was confused about best Ecobee settings for new system. Enter BEESTAT to the rescue: I finally had the data & feedback needed to properly set the Aux Heat settings in Ecobee and insure that backup Aux Heat strips only kick in when desired. Perfect software companion to Ecobee. 👍🏽👍🏽

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-03-06, version 2.1.0*

Love this app. Offers great visibility for me and to monitor my propane furnace usage. I have a heat pump as primary heat source and backup propane. I like to monitor the set points vs actual temps to make sure everything is aligned according to settings and also to know approx how much gas I’ve used. Keep up the great work.

### 5/5 — Data is my kink

*2026-02-13, version 2.1.0*

Honestly, blew away all expectations. The more sensors I add the more I love this app. If you love data and analytics and CHARTS plus love all the smart home things, this is your app. Please support them!

### 5/5 — Troubleshooting

*2026-01-01, version 2.1.0*

Great tool for troubleshooting and having a better understanding of how your HVAC system is operating.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Support

*2025-12-10, version 2.1.0*

Had an issue. Emailed support. Fixed!

### 5/5 — Love this app to provide insights into my home

*2025-12-07, version 2.1.0*

This is a great tool to look at and analyze your data from your thermostat. It unlocks so much of the information trapped in the other system. Great interface and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Incredibly useful

*2025-11-13, version 2.1.0*

I’ve learned way more and made more simple changes because of this app than any other.

### 5/5 — Such a nice addition to the Ecobee app

*2025-08-22, version 2.1.0*

A MUST for geeky home owners

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Amazing stats and graphs!

*2025-08-14, version 2.1.0*

Amazing to see the historic stats per sensor so I can learn and improve my home’s heating/cooling.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2025-08-06, version 2.1.0*

Leaps and bounds more helpful than the official ecobee app. I wish I had learned about this app years ago.

### 5/5 — Stats and Info - Glorious

*2025-07-05, version 2.1.0*

I downloaded this looking to get extra info from my ecobee system.  Does not disappoint!  Lots of great trending and easy to view
