Complain complain
Since load shedding has ended, it has just become a place where the middle class now goes to complain. Kind of like mini Twitter. There’s a plane flying overhead? Bet, there’s going to be a chat about this.
Next - you think you’re going to delete your profile and be done with all that bonus drama? No. The delete your account and data doesn’t work. It prompts you to contact the developer. Which I did, through their bug reporting tool. But now 3 days later, no feedback. Safe to assume my data will forever be linked to these drama queens, and one day when the aliens go through these thousand year records, I’ll be classed with these people asking “why are there planes flying overhead?”

Keeps me informed of possible issues in my area
Mixit?
App suddenly changed to Mixit. The font is so disappointing (courier!)
Usefully terrible
Unfortunately few other apps offer this apps functionality. But these guys seriously need a UI/UX designer, the app experience is utterly appalling
Dumb ahh country
Can’t believe you need an app to tell you when your powers gonna be off y’all let’s start a revolution against the ANC they can’t stop ruining this country “apartheid 2025”????
???
1. Where do you explain the difference between the stages?
2. Where can one find a map with affected areas?

Loadshedding
This free App was not only a sanity saver but also helped the economy of the country as businesses could plan ahead to minimize disruption.
Good app but…..
Don’t like the new area specific updates, it not convenient, the previous version allowed me to see what’s happening in the areas around me once off, now we have to add each area to your list and go into each and every surrounding area one at a time to see important happenings, which is very time consuming…please revert back to old version. By having easy access on updates that’s happening in other places and areas surrounding us helps to keep citizens updated about what’s happening in communities around them… if that makes sense…no one has time to go tap on each every suburb when something major is happening….for instance Alberton recently has had a lot of substations exploding and atm bombings but we can’t see the updates because someone’s update only show in Mayberry Park….people in Brackenhurst or albertsdal areas they can’t see it unless the go into Mayberry park area. Please go back to old version this new update is not good…

Genaue Load Shedding Information
Diese App hat und während unseres Urlaubs in Südafrika sehr geholfen. Übersichtlich und leicht bedienbar.
Essential
I find it really funny that people apparently take their shedding-rage out on this app and its creators; down rating it and vloeking in the comments as if the lack-of-power-that- be at ESKOM are somehow going to sense the general ire. As always with us dear old homo sapiens; no good deed goes unpunished.
If you want to even make a start in understanding the bureaucratic cluster-eff that is national loadshedding playing out across our miserable land, then you need this app. That’s it really. Or try work it out using the municipal tables. Go on… I dare you.

Works for me
In the good old days had no idea when load shedding was due - now I do 👌
Absolutely Excellent App
If there were more stars I would have given them. Excellent app, easy to use and constantly updated. It is not an easy task to track Escom loadshedding and the team are doing a great job keeping up with the lords of darkness - Welk done team. Love your app. Take care
Super useful app.
Thanks a lot!
Accurate
You guys do tend to get the brunt of the complaints cause of load shedding but you don’t flip the switch . Your job to inform and that’s exactly what this app does . It’s accurate and informative . Living in another country that going through load shedding we don’t have this luxury . It’s a mystery as to when and where and how long .
So cut these developers some slack they aren’t responsible
So well done ESP for keeping South Africa in the know

Easy to use
Been using the app for years now. It’s ease of use and up-to-the-minute accuracy is to be commended.
Compared to the rest, it’s the best. By far.

Excellent App!
The load shedding schedules from Eskom need a Mensa degree to understand 😏. This app is always up to date and it’s SO easy to see when the power’s going to be off.
Please, people, they are not responsible for load shedding - don’t shoot the messenger!

Read what you buy- Not Eskom’s app!
Too many people blaming ESP for the wrong information from Eskom, or complaining when Eskom takes over from a municipality it deems, “not compliant” (and usually makes the situation worse instead of better). I hate that we need this app, but I’m grateful that such a great app exists!!
Relevant
Unfortunately so relevant. Shame…
👍🏻
Does the job
