### 3/5 — When the app works

*2026-02-16, version 3.4.4*

I have had the system for 2 years. The app works 3 out of 7 days. Do better

### 2/5 — Slow and buggy

*2025-01-11*

Been using for a couple years now and it likes to freeze up or just not load what the solar is doing. Seems to be a solid 5-10 minute delay from what is actually being generated. The live mode only shaves it down to 3-4 minutes. 
Currently the app will not stay logged on go more than a day. Just started randomly on both my iPhone and iPad. 
On and the system won’t allow me to change the time zone. It thinks I’m in Greenwich England all the time.

### 2/5 — Promising, however it needs more support at the homeowner’s end

*2024-11-22, version 3.4.4*

As a newcomer to 100% off-grid integrated power systems, the app needs more links to Canadian-specific FAQ. Honestly, I want less fluff about CO2 sequestered and number of trees planted. More frequent IPS system-updates. App PLUS = Infographic is a plus. Add battery-health to app. Clone info from gateway to app. For non-tech users, add toggle between basic/advanced.

### 3/5 — Battery Voltage indicator

*2024-09-07, version 3.4.4*

Sure would be nice if they added your current battery voltage display on the mobile version. Can you work on this for the next update?

### 3/5 — Nice and useful app - limited info

*2024-07-29, version 3.4.4*

Home Screen of the app works well to monitor power flow, but it’s not obvious how battery state of charge (SOC) is reported. 

You have to tap on the battery icon to see SOC.  There is no history or graph of SOC like there is on the computer version.

### 1/5 — Broken Solar Power Generation Graphs

*2024-02-25, version 3.4.4*

This program is now broken. The cloud is not returning the correct data to display solar power generation for any month or year. It correctly displays the data for any single day. It displays nothing if you select the current month or any previous month or year. 

This problem also exists in the browser computer interface for InsightCloud. The management needs to fix the server that is providing the data to the mobile and computer platforms.

### 1/5 — Problems with app

*2024-02-17*

I'm on current version. Zero stars for the app!!!

Too many problems for off grid use! (1-1/2 yrs) I know I can log directly into my unit if I want real time. I get really tired of walking to the garage to physically look at the manual display because that's so much better than your app. 
That does me absolutely no good when I'm away from home and its critical whether I can add loads or need to remove them. A time stamp would help, but when it's 'just now' for maybe 10 minutes at a time, it leaves me blind. The goal is to reduce loss late afternoon to top off the batteries before sundown. If there was a way to see if the 12V output signal to my panel relay was on or off, that would also make life easier.

Is it possible to get a manual describing exactly how reporting to your server works? Maybe just allow us to connect directly to the unit by WiFi instead of going thru your server or having to be home. Seems you threw an app out there and we're left to struggle with it every day. Even direct connect at home is a real pain. It means logging out of my Wi-Fi, then logging into the unit, then going back to WiFi. Is this the best you can do for a product that has so much capability? I've had the same problem as others getting connected to your tech dept and don't always get any answers. I got lucky during initial setup and found an independent tech for $500 who answered some simple questions that your tech dept should have easily supplied.

At this point, I'm about to start researching other brands and just eat the loss on your equipment simply because of the lack of a decent app or a decent tech support. Please don't leave a fluff reply, give me something of a solution. When all software is current, there are no excuses or 'try this' ways to correct it. The ball is in your court, do you want our business or not? I hate to switch to different equipment when the basic inverter is SO good, but if something is not done, I'll eat the $5K loss and move on.

### 3/5 — Problem in the App InsightMobile

*2024-01-07*

Well, in the App section Analyze, Production when selecting from Solar appear 0 Wh of production. This message is wrong. Another situation is in the section of settings, GW Firmware Version shows the old version when in the insightLocal and InsightCloud the Firmware is updated with the current version. The interfaz of this application has problems. It needs a update to fix bugs and issues. Thanks

### 2/5 — History analytics app version 3.4.4 (2)

*2023-10-12*

Several reviews have suggested improved history analytics but in my opinion little has been done to satisfy customer requests.
Many reviews listed multiple issues, perhaps baby steps will yield results. 
I currently show no data from July 2023 to October 2023 in History / Battery Charge for kWh. 
I’ve one request; change History / Battery Charge from kWh to State of Charge % (SoC%).
Perhaps adding a drop-down option so customers can choose between kWh or SoC% would be beneficial.

### 2/5 — Not good for timely monitoring

*2023-10-10, version 3.4.4*

This should be a great idea however, I can’t get any information until six minutes later and sometimes longer. I insisted on a display with my installer, but it turns out Schneider stopped selling them, which was a big mistake. It seems to be the only way to get real time information.  I was advised that I could purchase another name brand monitor. It will cost me $1000. Schneiders was apparently $600 when I got my system installed but they were suddenly no longer available. After spending $30,000 on my system I’m not very happy about this.  I have tried to call and  rarely get through. If I do get through, I leave a message and don’t get a call back. I feel kind of sick after spending that kind of money and not being able to monitor my system properly. What really amazes me is the lack of response to resolve the problem. I am absolutely sure that I’m not the only one

### 1/5 — Application needs improvement

*2023-10-08*

This application needs some changes or updates. The data shown from the PV is not correct and why if the house is consuming less that the PV is producing the battery shows that is discharging as well. It looks like a good application but is not showing correct information although I have installed version 3.4.4.(2) and firmware 1.17

### 3/5 — App always black screen

*2023-09-20, version 3.4.4*

How to fix am in iphone

### 2/5 — Just not there…

*2023-09-19*

Little things like the graphics not fitting on my iPhone SE screen. 
Inability to get alerts or notifications when solar production cuts-out or the generator kicks-in. 
Would be lovely if the app was just for quick system checks but there was a web interface to go deeper.

### 1/5 — Black Screen on iOS

*2023-07-31, version 3.4.4*

Cannot use app - only get black screen.  Using latest version 3.4.4 on iOS 16.5.1 on iPhone 14.  Have rebooted phone and same experience.  Please help.

### 1/5 — Useless App

*2026-06-19, version 3.4.4*

App stopped working completely. Logged out and logged in and now it wants me to set up my site. Trying to set up my site it keeps saying try again later. Stupid app.

### 1/5 — Waste of time.

*2026-06-11, version 3.4.4*

It does not work. I wish there was a better app. It’s so hard to keep up to date!  It hardly works.  I want to see a snapshot of my inverter.

### 1/5 — Not

*2026-05-04, version 3.4.4*

Why is the app not showing me anything. Not hooking to my system.

### 1/5 — No sirve

*2025-10-17, version 3.4.4*

La aplicación está abajo no me da información no trabaja

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2025-09-07, version 3.4.4*

I just see a black screen. Have uninstalled and reinstalled.

### 1/5 — Unimpressed

*2025-03-09, version 3.4.4*

An absolute dumpster fire of an app.  Continually have problems trying to connect to the app to see outputs, solar generation and battery health.  Should be relatively straight forward but it never seems to run right.  Disappointed

### 1/5 — Connectivity issues

*2025-01-01, version 3.4.4*

Constantly having problems

### 1/5 — Waste of time.

*2024-10-21, version 3.4.4*

It does not work. Will change to ther inverter system as soon as possible. This app hardly works.

### 1/5 — Crappy app but good hardware

*2024-03-10, version 3.4.4*

Is a shame that Schneider solar product has great hardware and this crappy app. They should put the software engineers to fix it and improve it accordingly with the product. Lack of functionality.  But Germans are stingy, liars in many of their products. Same happened with Volkswagen, Lufthansa is the same. Put software engineers to work!!!

### 1/5 — Terrible firmware update

*2024-02-26*

I’m using the XW Pro. When I updated to a latest released firmware, all my historical data in this app—all the bar charts—are no longer functioning. I rolled back the firmware and performed a factory reset of my XW Pro, didn’t fix it. This appears to be a server side issue. It hasn’t been fixed in over a month which is really annoying. I’ll update this review once the issue is fixed. Hopefully soon tho

### 5/5 — Schneider Solar Monitoring

*2025-08-14*

One of the best app for Solar. Schneider is a smart company that’s been around for decades and aren’t new to this century VS other inverters and customer service. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Add ac1 voltage

*2024-07-31, version 3.4.4*

Great App. But it would be great to add the current ac1 voltage for when ac1 is under voltage see were is at

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-06-27, version 3.4.4*

Great App

### 5/5 — firmware update is fixed

*2024-03-15*

The below issue has been fixed by Schneider electric.

### 5/5 — Refresh is great- give the ap another try!

*2023-06-07*

Older versions had issues- from inability to accumulate data, incorrect values, and limited functionality (when it did work). Latest version is great- functionality and ability to monitor system from my phone is A+. Thx Schneider

### 5/5 — The update ,I loved

*2021-11-12*

Very good this new update I love the evolution created in the application was given by a team of professionals, thank you, Schneider, continue on the improvements
Thank you

**Developer response:** Hello edwardsur,
Thank you for your encouraging words.

### 5/5 — App Woking fine

*2020-12-05, version 3.1.1*

Update and is working fine now!!!

Tnks

### 5/5 — Always getting better

*2020-01-15*

The Gateway is a huge upgrade over the Combox.  I’m looking forward to further updates to this app!

**Developer response:** Hello User,  Could you please try new version 3.3 of the app which is available in stores and share your valuable feedback.

### 4/5 — Rafael Montalvo

*2024-10-27, version 3.4.4*

### 4/5 — Good but missing features

*2023-11-30*

Overall a lot of data easily viewed in the app. 
A key missing feature is the battery charge stage. Selecting the battery icon tells you status is charging, but not the stage of charging ie bulk, absorption, float.  

Frustrating as currently can’t easily identify when batteries are fully charged in the app. 

This info is available on the charge controller so should hopefully be simple to interface to the app.
