App does the job
1: App is bad when in dark mode reading the Bluetooth list.
2: have multiple kickass mppt chargers and whilst the option to change Bluetooth name is there, is doesn’t stay at what you input.
3: Really need an option to connect to wifi and view remotely.

Dark mode struggle
Great app, does what it’s designed to do. My only issue is difficulty reading the bluetooth list in dark mode.
Ok for live monitoring
This app certainly works and connects to the kickass solar charger perfectly. No complaints in its live monitoring readouts.
There is a couple of issues I do have with it that could be easily improved
1. If your phone is on dark mode, the menus are really hard to read with purple on black/grey
2. Bluetooth doesn’t reconnect when you go out of range, it’s ridiculous. Every time u go out of range you get a prompt to reconnect and you have to manually open the Bluetooth device list every time, I have a $15 Bluetooth battery monitor that auto reconnects. Why can’t this?
3. Graphing/ historical data seems completely useless. It only ever shows me the most recent data point. Maybe it works if you leave your phone unlocked in the app and in range the entire time. But who’s going to do that? Again, my $15 Chinese battery Bluetooth monitor remembers the historical data, why can’t this $130 device
Don’t let this deter you from buying a kickass mppt charger. It charges perfectly fine. But the app needs some love.
