### 2/5 — Sadly lacking in consistency

*2026-07-14, version 2.14.0*

Despite several attempts to get this working consistently and some advice from support group I get only intermittent readings. The features are also somewhat limited.

### 3/5 — Better than previous version

*2026-07-01, version 2.14.0*

This is much better than previous app. It is much quicker at downloading  your tank data and the graphic displays are better. Graph is also quicker at displaying fill value for partial day. Monthly usage is still inaccurate, especially in summer where fluctuations between daily measurements significantly influences average calculation. Better to day 1 minus day 30 value and divide by 30! Csv download would also be useful

### 2/5 — Great When it Works

*2026-06-06, version 2.14.0*

Looks great, brilliant when it updates. Problem is it updates every other day or every other week. I have two dongles working off different networks. Sorry I purchased them.

### 4/5 — Great at a glance review of Tank Level

*2026-05-16, version 2.12.0*

Works very well to check on the tank level, and the expected time for the tank to need refilling.  Good to be able to see the average consumption in litres per day for the last 30 days. 
Would be good if there could be an enhancement to allow checking the consumption between any two dates, preferably over the last year.  ie, would like to check my consumption between Nov and March, say.

### 4/5 — Average usage per day calc is wrong

*2026-05-12, version 2.11.0*

The app and service is much improved from the old kingspan connect that worked less than 50% of the he time. 
The average use figure for the last 30 days is wrong though. I can see from the chart my tank level has decreased by 300 litres in 30 days but it shows the usage as 14 litres per day (it should be around 10)

### 2/5 — Doesn’t update reliably

*2026-05-08, version 2.0.10*

This app is poor. The interface is bloated by unnecessary animations and weird styling without getting the basics right. One critical issue is that it doesn’t update the data when it is opened. The user has to press the refresh button to get today’s reading. The list of functions is tiny and we just need it to do that without any fluff.

### 3/5 — Getting better but more to do

*2026-04-25, version 2.0.9*

Needs to have more data friendly features for those of us who want to export the data and run trend analysis ourselves 

Also you have to jab the graph a number of times to make sure it shows you the data point you want. Would be nice to be able to roll your finger over the graph line and have a continuous readout. Or moving gridlines

### 3/5 — Oil Tank Options

*2026-04-10, version 2.0.8*

Having finally worked out how to actually use the app after a complete new install of a tank and the kingsman monitor. In the dropdown field for the tank I was unable to find the Deso 1235BT. Can you add this to your range please. Thanks

### 4/5 — Great improvement

*2026-04-06, version 2.0.8*

Really nice refresh compared to old design.
It would be useful to have an App feedback link.
Can you also fix the refresh as I have to manually refresh the level readings clicking in the tiny refresh button and

### 2/5 — App doesn’t update

*2026-04-02, version 2.0.8*

Tank filled early this morning and the app still not update. Have tried refresh and this didn’t work. All in all a very slow and cumbersome product that doesn’t give up to date information

### 4/5 — Looking good

*2026-03-16, version 2.0.3*

App is much more polished compared to the older one, and seems to work well, once the initial setup is complete.
Couple of feature suggestions:
1. Can you please make the consumption figure change with the period shown in the graph, i.e. over last month, 3 months and 12 months?
2. Can you please offer the ability to allow us to save the consumption to a CSV file so we can easily import into Excel, Pages etc?

### 3/5 — Why

*2026-03-14, version 2.0.3*

The old app worked perfectly for me. New app looks nice but it lies.   Please explain why I have two different readings, one via the app and one on the email  connected to the app.  45% and 60% is a huge difference.  You cannot blame the weather as my tank has been at 45% for a few weeks.  Talk about inaccurate, that is much more that you stated when I purchased your product

### 2/5 — Auto ‘upgrade’

*2026-03-01, version 2.0.2*

I’ve just been automatically moved on to KNECT Pro from Watchman Connect. Functionality is basically the same. 

Early experience not great - had to force a refresh for it to show a recent delivery. And the predicted empty date still hasn’t updated? Neither was an issue with the old app.

Also not yet getting notifications (which had recently been an issue with the old app).

Not a great start but hopefully things will settle down…

### 4/5 — Works when it works

*2026-02-02, version 1.4.6*

Always appears to be a problem when the annual £30 renewal charge is due. 

I am an installer and think that it is about time I started trying to see what the competition are selling.   It is a pity that you cannot renew through this app as opposed to going through  the fuel tank shop. More clicks and more time wasted.  Maybe use a rod as we did year ago to measure tanks.

### 1/5 — Flaky

*2026-01-29, version 1.4.6*

I have too much trouble with this app just hanging on login to be very positive about it. Not recommended.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-01-29, version 1.4.6*

Since installing the connect app a few weeks ago, it’s only managed to work on 2 occasions. Every other time I open the app it just times out

### 1/5 — Won’t work!

*2026-01-27, version 1.4.6*

I can not even get the app to open tried registering the account and it just keeps timing out.

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2026-01-12, version 1.4.6*

I’ve persevered for a month now and feel I’ve given this my best shot. It continually drops the WiFi link so forces you to reconnect. I’ve only had 2 readings before being told to reconnect, I’ve reconnected 5 times over this week and still no reading so it’s is pretty darn useless

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2026-01-09, version 1.4.6*

What a load of rubbish. Tried two watchman advanced sonic transmitters because serial numbers were not recognised, that didn't work. Then the app crashed and I can’t even uninstall it. I just get a blue screen with a white circle. Wished I had read these reviews before buying the Sensit. They also want a huge amount of personal information which is way overboard for just checking oil level in a tank. Eg requesting facial recognition, photos of the tank etc. Stick with the normal 3pin plug watchman device which works well.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-08-16*

Wanted WiFi for our oil tank so we could check levels remotely. The app absolutely doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2026-04-01, version 2.0.6*

I don’t trust readings any more since app update. Oil volume unchanged over last week despite using heating. Daily, monthly and annual usage all read the same average. Received a message to update to app version 2.0.5 when I’m already on 2.0.6

### 1/5 — Poor

*2026-04-01, version 2.0.6*

Stuck on the same reading for 3 weeks in app, although somehow sends apparently live daily info to my mobile. I cannot change or even input email push notificatio. Date, so that doesn’t work. Also when trying to update the level data with ‘refresh’ it fails. I had hoped that this new app would consign my problems with the old version to the past. Just a fresh bunch of new problems.

### 1/5 — Not updating

*2026-03-11, version 2.0.3*

Shows that a reading has been taken when offline! - I’ve struggled to get this app to connect for months - absolutely useless, the device is going back

### 1/5 — Possibly the worst app I have ever used!

*2026-03-10, version 2.0.3*

That’s 2 hours of my life I won’t get back. After trying 3 devices entering passwords etc 20+ times restarting routers, devices, Android and Ios taking photos restarting the app I think I finally succeeded. The designer should be fired! Do you ever test this with users?

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-03-05*

Spent nearly an hour installing a new Watchman Advanced/Plus sensor and receiver - went absolutely fine. No such luck with the Sensit USB receiver.

App is very buggy - account creation is a nightmare - if you enter an ineligible password you’ll have to force-quit and start from scratch as the password field cannot be edited. Multiple erroneous error messages about unmatched serial numbers and failure to connect to receiver (even though the receiver shows a connection is established).

To top it all, once I’d successfully completed the step on the 4th or 5th try and logged in to my account I was told there was no tank registered to the account despite all my efforts. What a waste of time and money - don’t bother.

### 1/5 — Po aktualizacji nie działa

*2026-03-03, version 2.0.3*

Nie można się zalogować po aktualizacji

### 1/5 — Not great

*2026-03-01, version 2.0.2*

To complicated to set up, having to re enter data, looses connection weekly, found that simply switching the dongle on and off reconnects it, the new app gives you a picture view which is actually useless, please add daily usage not just the tank level decrease, it’s not difficult. As a buyer of your system, I want it to stay connected , show how much I use each day as a graphic, show my overall trend and when I will run out.

### 1/5 — App won’t even open

*2026-01-30, version 1.4.6*

App won’t even open any more.  What is going on?  Would give zero stars if I could

### 1/5 — Load of rubbish

*2026-01-29, version 1.4.6*

Worked first day and hadn’t worked since, app crashed and now cannot get back into my account

### 5/5 — Much improved app!

*2026-03-18, version 2.0.3*

The app has been recently updated and it is now much more useful as a result. Oil tank readings can now be checked at will with a quick screen swipe down, in the previous app you would have to wait for some random time for the oil tank level to be updated. Well done Kingspan for making this app more user focused..good job!

### 5/5 — Great features, working perfect, accurate. Love it

*2023-09-21, version 1.3.4*

Great features, level, usage for free, no advertises or additional payments. Love it! Accurate enough for heating oil.

### 5/5 — Now working very well. Thanks.

*2023-01-04, version 1.3.1*

Melissa @ KingSpan contacted me after I reported problems with the recent App updates and within an hour or so she had the problems all ironed out. The App is working as it should again. Very pleased to have it back up and running and with the excellent support provided.

### 5/5 — Can we have the raw data?

*2022-12-20, version 1.3.1*

Is there any export function - say as csv?

### 5/5 — Watchman Upgrade

*2022-11-25, version 1.2.9*

After many years with one of the old Watchman devices on our oil tank, our grandson got us a sensit last year as an upgrade. I was skeptical at first if this would be useful as it was already very easy just to read the display on the plug and know how much oil was in the tank. However, after a year of using the app I have to admit I am impressed with how simple it is to use. The estimated run out date and average liters per day data is particularly useful, especially in the winter time. Good work!

### 5/5 — Really Impressive App!!

*2022-11-25, version 1.2.9*

I have been impressed by this app and how it allows me to check the level of oil in my tank even when I am away from home. Installation of the device was straight forward and scheduled push notifications mean I get updates of my level regularly without having to open the app and check.

### 5/5 — Long test

*2022-02-01, version 1.2.4*

Had system for about a year works perfect can’t fault it   Anytime any anywhere I can check my oil level !!!!!! Until I had internet trouble and replaced the home hub.   After a week of stressful pairing issues and 3 phone calls later    The help desk fixed my issue first time.   Great product great back up  For the price you cant ask for more 11/10.  Thank you

### 5/5 — Does what it claims

*2021-01-28, version 1.1.7*

Simple and clear readings of my tank, great records of usage, and particularly useful projected runout date. App is easy to navigate and pairing process simple when followed correctly. Would highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Now I love it!!!

*2021-01-27, version 1.1.7*

Had all sorts of problems but fortunately for me Melissa from the developer team got in touch. She went above and beyond to help until we finally found the problem. 
If you have a SSID with anything other than normal characters you might struggle. 
Really big thumbs up to Melissa!!

### 5/5 — Super

*2021-01-26, version 1.1.7*

Wszystko działa poprawnie. 👍
