Waste of money outside of EU
For the price you pay for a Wattpilot, the app experience feels like an afterthought. The scheduler is frustratingly limited — you can only set one option for two separate timers, which makes it almost useless outside of the EU. People in Australia (and other non-EU markets) could really benefit from a more flexible, intelligent scheduler that actually lets you optimise for solar, cheap tariffs, and grid use. Right now, it feels like the hardware is great, but the software is holding it back.

Great
1. Agree with decimal point displayed as dot instead of comma. When one changes frequency, there is no way of entering comma or decimal point, only whole numbers.
2. Why no flexible usage in Australia?
Been using app since November 2024 and has been great except when watt pilot did an update and didn’t work anymore. Factory reset solved that problem.
Plenty of flexibility. Mainly use it in eco mode, sometimes in next trip mode or manual mode. All work good. Occasionally it says it’s charging but car app says it’s charging at 0kwh. MG4. I tell the car to stop charging then start charging again then it successfully starts charging. I have no idea why occasionally it stops charging on a cloudless day.

Misses core capabilities
The app has plenty of features I never use that I assume are useful to some but it completely lacks the ability to set and forget.
I want the ability to configure it to have my car charged by 6:30 am every day using off peak electricity over night UNLESS there is a solar surplus in which case use that at any time of day.
This seems a reasonable ask but is completely impossible to set despite having Fronius inverter. End result is often either paying for peak electricity or not charging the car.

gute Basis aber viel Luft für Verbesserung
Die Grundfunktionen und Integration mit dem Frinius Wandler klappt gut und das Laden zuverlässig. Leider fehlen eine Anzeige für den Ladestand und die Unterstützung für dyn. Stromtarife basiert auf Stündlicher anzeige und er Folgerag steht nicht ab 13:00 zur Verfügung und ist kaum benutzbar. Hier würde ich mir mehr wünschen ...
