User reviews

Glance for PV works great on my iPhone,iPad and elderly Apple Watch

This is a great app and works really well to keep you informed and quickly about your Solis inverter use details and at a bargain price
It works without the fuss of signing in and going through menus to see this information.
Also it’s great to have this information on my Apple Watch for an instant view whenever.
A great developer and very quick action when I need a little assistance from him…
Thank you Daniel.

FAQ

What solar inverter brands does Glance support?

Glance supports Solis, Sofar, SolaX, Growatt, and GoodWe inverters. It connects either through SolisCloud for remote access or via Modbus TCP for direct local network communication.

Can I see my solar data on my iPhone's Lock Screen?

Yes, Glance offers Lock Screen widgets in both circular and rectangular formats. These allow for instant battery and power readouts without unlocking your device.

How does Glance connect to my solar system?

Glance provides two connection methods: SolisCloud, which uses your API keys to read data from anywhere, and Modbus TCP, which allows direct communication with your inverter on your home network without a cloud account.

Is Glance free to use?

The app is free to download and install, and widgets can be added to your Home Screen and Lock Screen. However, a one-time in-app purchase is required to unlock live auto-refresh functionality for all widgets.

Does Glance have ads?

Glance does not contain advertisements. The app is free to download, with an optional one-time in-app purchase to enable live data updates.

How often is the data updated in Glance?

Without the in-app purchase, widget data remains frozen at the last fetched time. The one-time in-app purchase enables live auto-refresh, ensuring your widgets display the most current information.

Is my solar system data private with Glance?

Yes, your credentials stay on-device. Glance communicates directly with SolisCloud or your inverter on your local network, ensuring no middle server or account signup is required, and no tracking occurs.

What information can I see with Glance widgets?

You can view real-time PV power output, battery state of charge with color indicators, today's and monthly PV generation, kWh imported and exported, self-sufficiency percentage, and estimated battery duration.
