Does not work

Useless—$8 wasted

Downloaded the app, input my information (account, territory, electric codes), and nothing. Waited a month. Nothing. Completely useless.

In the developers defense, I’m guessing pge updated their system to brick the app, but either way, the app is now useless. Save your $8.

Poor support, outdated rate schedules, almost worthless

Once upon a time this app was pretty good. Now, sometimes it goes for weeks without updating the usage info. The rate schedule is generally outdated so when it give you a $$ amount of electrical usage the amount is never accurate. Not worth it. My Tesla app is way better.

Stopped working?

Previous versions worked well. I reinstalled and my login is accepted, but the app never loads. Restart wants me to login again.
Earlier versions were helpful because you could see if you would pay less on another rate plan, based on your previous usage.

Rates never up to date

This app never seems to update their rates so the $$$ amounts are NEVER correct. It sometimes goes days without updating electric usage, and I have had it go weeks without updating. Not a great app if you accurately want to track your energy usage and associated costs.
